WAAN - We Want WAAN - Dutch sax/keys duo cycles through synthpop, jazz-funk, doomjazz (the mellow kind), Fourth World lite, and caps the album with what sounds like a Hawkwind Nik Turner showcase ("Cecilyum")

WAAN represents the coming together of accomplished saxophonist Bart Wirtz and keyboard magician Emiel van Rijthoven. As a pair of self-confessed tech nerds hailing from The Netherlands, the duo finally released their debut album Echo Echo on Sonar Kollektiv in 2023 — some thirteen years after their initial meeting. The profoundly positive response to the LP sent this two-man hi-tech jazz outfit on a journey they hadn’t quite anticipated. The album not only received praise in national newspapers and on international radio shows, but was also twice nominated for an Edison Award — the Dutch equivalent of the Grammys. Buoyed by this, WAAN set off on tour with their band, playing extensively across their home country and successfully translating their unique electro-acoustic sound into a captivating live show. In July 2024, looking to build on this momentum, Bart and Emiel retreated to a house in the middle of the peaceful Dutch island of Texel. There, they began sketching out new ideas in open-ended, improvisational sessions — laying the foundation for what would become their sophomore album: We Want WAAN.

I imagine that Win goes to Tul's room to talk to him and finds him in his room just SOBBING. hand clutching his shirt over his chest and bawling his eyes out.

Then they talk and Win helps/knows that Tul is gonna go to the resort for Waan.

Black & White: "White literally takes on Black’s life in order to figure out who hurt him, and when Black wakes up, he does everything in his power to make sure White is safe (even if it isn’t necessarily what is right or what White might want, but Black gets there eventually). They have an established twin connection that’s so strong that Black wakes up from a coma when White fucks his nemesis. Even with their separation at such a young age, it’s clear that they are some of the, if not the, most important people in each other’s lives. Also, I think it’s really interesting that White learns so much about who he is and what he believes through posing as Black, and a lot of their individual strengths and weaknesses balance each other out super well."

Wan & Win & Wiew: "United in supporting each other, especially when their shitty father is acting up. Wiew asking Waan to cuddle right after he was yelled at by their overbearing father literally added five years to my life. Win also had no problem standing up for Waan to their father. Win also set up Waan with one of his besties and pushed him to follow his feelings. Also, Wiew being besties with Win’s boyfriend and looking up to him was the absolute cutest! Them all having dinner with their respective boyfriends at their hotel...exactly. Also, Wiew asking to sleep in bed with Win, him immediately saying no because he wanted to sleep with his boyfriend, and his boyfriend saying Wiew could just sleep with them that night was peak comedy."
