About Willie Darktrousers & de Splinters

Willie Darktrousers is a Dutch producer, musician and songwriter based in Leeuwarden, The Netherlands, but loosely named after the village of his childhood: Donkerbroek (which literally translates as 'Darktrousers') in the north of The Netherlands. Sometimes making music with De Splinters, sometimes on his own, his songs are "about joy and disaster, Dutch-langue songs of fear and misfortune." He describes the sound on his début album, Glibberburen (2017), as "occult auto-tune rock", a mix of "garagedoom, noisefolk, swingpunk & fancy-fair kraut", "as if Michael Gira of Swans and Kanye West were buddies from the Frisian countryside and recorded a black metal album together, blended with two pounds of rotting fruit."
