Tactile - Wouter Snoei

Wouter Snoei: his name has been a permanent fixture in the world of the “electronic muse” in the Netherlands, with his (technical) resourcefulness equaling his musical originality.

Snoei’s compositions cover a broad range, from strictly synthetic to the most divergent forms of live electronics. That alongside his advanced activities he has also played a leading role in dance music (in 1997, while still a student, he won the “Grote Prijs van Nederland” competition in the genre) marks him as a composer of the youngest generation, who no longer heed the ridiculous trench warfare between “serious” and “light” that spoiled twentieth-century musical thinking.
