Lies
Beijerinck (didgeridoo): 'Didge mother of Holland' is playing
didge since 1993. Busking on the streets she developed her own
style and soon was discovered by the Amsterdam dance scene.
She has been playing at numberous parties and festivals ever
since. Nowadays she is known for her strong and articulated
style throughout Europe. Her sound matches perfectly with Michiel's
style of playing.
Michiel
Teijgeler (didgeridoo): 'MT-Yidaki' started playing didge in
1993. He has developed a unique, personal sound that is best
described as Etno-techno. He loves to blend the sound of the
didgeridoo with a diverse range of musical styles. As a co-founder
of 3ple-D he is always searching for new melodies and strong
beats. For this album he, together with Lies, was inspired by
rythms from all over the world and made combinations where the
two didgeridoos compliment each other.
Terence Samson
(percussion): 'Groove Master Ter' plays instruments and music
that has world music influences. The combination of different
styles of world and modern music, like dance music, is something
he is experementing with for more than ten years. As the newest
member of 3ple-D Terence blends the sound of the daf, pandero,
conga's, tabla and all sorts of small percussion with didgeridoo
like no other.
