Hello, my name is Andrew 'Chi' Claes. I am working & living in Antwerp, Belgium. You can hear me play the saxophone mostly with STIJN, Brazzaville & Drewdriver. And I'm playing regular gigs with modern jazz type bands. My electronic output covers experimental free improvisation, IDM & soundscape production for various artistic projects. Through my music I try to open up my heart in search of eternal bliss for you, me & everybody. As an answer to the FAQ why my music sounds so dark, I would say that I believe people have 2 go beyond their fears in order to transmute this feelings back into love4all.Currently active in the following bands: STIJN, Brazzaville, Ziggy Electric, Fables of Fungus, Hamster axis of the One Click Panther, Drewdriver, Odyssey, Bearguts Quintet, GO_TELL, Mong and various other constellations.If you have any questions please visit my site & don't hesitate 2 contact me! Enjoy! X
