For his Sans Loup EP, Brussels-based producer Pepijn Gyssels (aka PiP) teams up with saxophonist Ambroos De Schepper, best known for his role in the jazztronic Bandler Ching. Their collaboration thrives on improvisation: De Schepper arriving at sessions with sax, clarinet, and FX pedals in hand, weaving whimsical sketches that Gyssels would later sculpt into fully formed soundscapes, augmenting with electronics, textures, and subtle percussion.

The title track, *Sans Loup*, is a drifting, abstract jazz journey. De Schepper’s winds float lazily, as if played from the couch after a sleepless night, while Gyssels’ muted percussion and low-end anchor the dreamlike haze. Fragmented vocal snippets and delicate electronic details move through the mix, giving the piece a tactile, lived-in quality.

The result is a singular sound world that recalls the spectral intimacy of Sam Gendel, André3000 or Carlos Niño, but with a distinctly Brussels twist. Less about virtuosity and more about presence, Sans Loup captures the art of lingering in sound—an invitation to slow down, drift, and simply be.
