Biography Elisabeth Esselink
First of all Elisabeth Esselink (aka Solex) is a composer / musician, secondly a filmmaker.
Her music is a light-hearted amalgamation of pop music, electronica and sampling. She released 6 studio-albums that were distributed worldwide.
As a filmmaker she made a few of her own music video’s. Quite different from a music video is her latest effort ‘Solex Ahoy’. Solex Ahoy, or A Journey Through Sound In The Netherlands, is the result of the boating trip, an ode to the Dutch waterways.
Sound:
Elisabeth Esselink & Bart van Poppel
Film synopsis:
Solex Ahoy
The Sound Map of the Netherlands
During the course of the summer of 2008, Bart van Poppel and Elisabeth Esselink trekked the numerous rivers, lakes and waterways covering the twelve provinces of the Netherlands by an old motor boat. In each province a different cast of musicians were invited to climb aboard and purely a l'improviste, create a homage to the Dutch landscape. On returning to her home base in Amsterdam, Esselink took the resulting material full of noises, moods, voices and rhythms back to her studio where she set about processing the recordings into twelve separate sound-image compositions, one for each province. Solex Ahoy, or better still, The Sound Map of the Netherlands is a reflection of the perilous route. A homage to the Dutch waterways.
