HoneyBox Benoit Merckx Music composer/Sound designer Biography: A lot of music listening and a creation : "HoneyBox" started in 2001 when me and my teenage friends broke our alternative rock band. I left my electric guitar and decided to work on solo with an old Roland keyboard that my step father had at home. It even had integrated floppy disks ! Few months later, I bought a Yamaha hardware sequencer, started to experiment and created my first electronic tracks. The world of electronic music opened to me a wide range of dreams and music gender defining was never easy. In 2005, moving from my hometown Brussels to London was a big and inspiring change... I studied Sound Design and started to build soundscapes for films and scenography projects, creating, editing and mixing sounds with a computer based equipment. Simutenaously, I played improvisations of my tracks with my sequencer in various public spaces. Getting to the point : Today : My material : a 19 year old hardware sequencer, an old Syquest floppy disks for my data, a 30 year old spanish acoustic guitar... along with my voice in French, Spanish or English... A recent computer to record, and everything sounds "contemporaneous"-:) My style : learning from gigs to gigs, improvisation, creating music "in the moment". My today's leitmotive : Taking the maximum advantage of what I have NOW. Some places where I have performed : Baran Café, Bergen, Norway LCC cafe, London Electrowerkz, London Rhythm Factory, London Club Ventura, Madrid Eisbär Soundclub, Madrid La gougoutte à pépé, Bruxelles Profile picture : By Jesús Mallo Velasco HoneyBox’s tracks Green Love (2019) by HoneyBox published on 2020-03-15T20:15:16Z Finally (2019) by HoneyBox published on 2020-02-09T07:47:59Z Nunca Give Up (2019) by HoneyBox published on 2020-02-09T07:32:21Z Working (2019) by HoneyBox published on 2020-02-09T06:42:18Z Jazz Love (2019) by HoneyBox published on 2020-02-09T06:36:27Z Tribute to C.C.
