ABOUT

A short documentary about Compro Oro's musical journey that lead them to their fourth album Buy The Dip. It was recorded over a 4-day period in the castle "Kasteel De Varens" in Melle, Belgium. Old Rolls-Royces sleep steadily in English landscape gardens while a 700-year-old chestnut shelters an army of frogs. Band members were surrounded by medieval art and played football on the castle grounds. This was the atmosphere in which Buy The Dip came to fruition.

Compro Oro are Wim Segers (vibraphone, marimba, synth, whistles, vocals), Bart Vervaeck (electric and acoustic guitars, pedal steel guitar, vocals), Matthias Debusschere (bass, vocals), Falk Schrauwen (congas, percussion, effects) and Frederik Van Den Berghe (drums).

Buy The Dip is recorded by Laurens Ingels and Geoffrey Burton. Mixed by Frederik Segers & Geoffrey Burton.
