Ladies and Gentlemen, Evil Ink Pen Records proudly presents the first track from my forthcoming album! HERE
Dusty is an instrumental I recorded last year. The rhythm section is a short sample from a very famous song by a very famous band (I'll just say they're the bee's knees) mixed with an array of pans and various kitchen utensils. The song tells the story of a bass, a guitar and a synthesiser who wish they had a ping pong table (they get one at the end).
Hope that sets you cruisin! 19/1/2012

Last summer I recorded my own version of Beck's song Ramshackle. Just for a laugh really. After watching it sitting there for over a year, looking sad and pale, I thought I'd release it, right here. Hope it flips your wig! 26/12/2011

Lured out of hibernation by Chris from Club Kamikaze, I will be playing this Thursday (8th December) at the Lock Tavern in Camden. Expect something different, I haven't played live since February. I'm quite tempted to sack all my gear and just turn up with a Stylophone, but we'll see how that works out. Come down earlyish (I'm first on) and stick around for what is guaranteed to be a great night. See you there! 5/12/2011

Recently, you might have noticed the lack of activity from the pevinkinelosphere. The explanation is simple: I'm taking time off to come up with some sharp hooks for a brand new set. The idea being that improvisation should be a part of the show, as opposed to all of it. Tough job...
Also, the website changed again and from now on I'll stop mentioning it. 28/6/2011

After a lot of reading, learning and typing, pevinkinel.com sheds its skin to reveal an orange and blue plumage with a random drawing by me and you on every page. The question is how long will it last? 5/3/2011

Loads of good things happening in Pevin Kinel Land. As previously hinted, I will be playing a live soundtrack to Our Daily Bread, this time in London at the Roundhouse. Before that, make sure to tune into Resonance FM on Wednesday 1st December from 6pm to 7pm for a live session on the Rockfort Show, I won't go all cheesy, promised. Right now, I'm off to the Fishtank Festival in East London, which should be a bowl! 27/11/2010

I played a ten minute improvised thing live on the New Yorkian radio WFMU. You can head off to Put The Needle On The Record's playlist and listen to it. 5/10/2010

I was in Jersey over the week-end, playing in various places for the Branchage Film Festival. My big moment was playing a live soundtrack for Our Daily Bread, the amazing film by Nikolaus Geyrhalter. I was a bit scared as to what the outcome was going to be, especially since the film doesn't have any music on it to start with. It went down very well and who knows, the experience might even be repeated in London. Watch this interstellar space... 1/10/2010

Time for the roughly monthly update. As promised, I just had a few very nice gigs thanks to the lovely audience who turned up and lent their ears, eyes, hands and other various organs. Next month is going to be interesting to say the least. I'm crossing the channel to play in Normandie AND in Jersey. I used to live in both those places so this should provoke some heart wrenching, emotionally laden performances. Anyway, you'll excuse me, I'm off to re-fold my tissues so they fit in the suitcase. 22/8/2010

I have been silent for a while, mainly because I couldn't post here due to some weird website problems but also because after the sheer madness following Of Week Constitution's release, things calmed down a bit. Anyway, you'll be happy to know that I'm all good and have a few nice gigs coming up. So put a shine on your dancing shoes and start your warming-up exercise! 15/7/2010

Using the first twenty seconds of "Vendredi" from my upcoming EP, I pulled all the stops and directed this fancy looking trailer. Watch it here. 14/5/2010

Did you know that if you decided to write every 5 letter words possible with the structure:
consonant/vowel/consonant/vowel/consonant
at one point you would write KINEL and then, a few hours/days later PEVIN. Astonishing isn't it? ... Well, allright, it's been a week and I'm nowhere near finished mixing the 7 tracks. On the plus side I have a cover and a title: Of Week Constitution. Little by little... 7/4/2010

I have just finished a little project. Every day for the past week I wrote and recorded a new song, so I have seven new songs. I only listened to all of them today and it's good enough, we're going to phase 2 : I'm now giving myself another week for the mixing, mastering, titling, weighing, etc... and making a nice cover. 31/3/2010

For those of you lucky enough to understand Portuguese, head over to Audioscopio.com to listen to some loopy explanations by me. 13/3/2010

What would be a better way to kick off the chilly month of February than getting "Tiger Tasty Put" played on BBC Radio Lancashire in the nicely eclectic show On The Wire? Well I suppose it could get more airplay on Different Class Radio (the brilliant people behind the upcoming Don't Forget To Go Home night on the 5th of this month), but... wait... That is actually what happened! Oh boy, this is going to be a great month. 1/2/2010

Things are heating up this week with two radio-shows playing some Sheds goodness. The Roll On show on ICR FM and The If Show on DCR played respectively "Stop For Nothing" (a playful Velofax cover) and "Roseanne (Bombay Mix)". How tasteful of them? Very tasteful indeed. 17/1/2010

2009 didn't end half badly for me, with a couple of gigs that turned out really well. A video of the last one for the Loaf Recordings Xmas party is here. And looking forward to 2010 with already the promise of a memorable evening at Barden's Boudoir next month. 2/1/2010

After a long wait, my new album Sheds is finally out. By pure coincidence, it arrived on my birthday. 24/11/2009

Not long now until the album is ready. The cover is done and on the sonic side of things, I'm just a few finishing touches away. Only one question remains: "How am I gonna mass produce that puppy?" 1/10/2009

Thanks to a break in my otherwise manic gigging schedule *bragging*, I found some time to start a feature on this very website. Starting gently with September, I will upload a new improvisation every month, for your ears delight. Hope you enjoy. 8/9/2009

For the last couple of months, I've been recording new songs as well as cleaning up older ones that never got properly released. The result will soon be an album. Some tunes are soft poppy songs, and others instrumental experiments, which should make for interesting listening. In the meantime, be sure to come see me live, improvising away. 6/8/2009
