Op het Festival November Music 2006 in Den Bosch (internationaal festival voor actuele muziek) wordt in het documentaireprogramma voor de zoveelste keer ‘Op zoek naar een vergeten toepassing - een portret van Dick Raaijmakers’ vertoond.

Er kan niet genoeg aandacht voor het werk van Dick Raaijmakers zijn, maar waarom altijd dezelfde documentaire? Laatst ook op het Strp festival in Eindhoven en 't is al zeker twee keer op televisie te zien geweest.

Daarom nu een hele mooie korte film uit 1988 waarin Dick Raaijmakers' passie voor geluid te zien is. Hij vertelt over zijn werk 'Vijf Kanons'. De 'Vijf Kanons' staat ook op de 3 cd-box 'The complete tape music of Dick Raaijmakers' die Basta laatst heruitgebracht heeft.

Dick Raaijmakers - Het kleinste geluid (deel 1)




Dick Raaijmakers - Het kleinste geluid (deel 2)

De film was onderdeel van het programma Atlantis van de VPRO, dat die keer 'het kleinste deeltje' als thema had.

What I can see on www.berlinwerk.de the 5th release of Tuxedomoon. 'What use?' is taken from their album 'Half mute'. 'Crash' is beautiful music to watch beltways by and recorded with a little help from members of The Sleepers.

You can say that!
I mentioned in my post of Chris and Cosey that I played in the basement of Paradiso.
Some recordings are made, and you can listen to them on YouTube at your own risk.
If you think my web radio is vague, try this.



It was a 'headphone concert'. We played in the bar, but you could only hear us when you put on a headphone. Brilliant idea, most of the time I find live music in bars very annoying and too loud.

Ate M Hes was also playing with us, it's worth while watching his videos on YouTube.

The second lp of Trythall with electronic country music from 1972.
Pay special attention to 'Nashville Moog', which is a kind of manual how to use a Moog in country music.

This is a sampler with Dutch bands who where not so well known, except for Brainbox. But there are musicians that became widely known in other formations.
Jan Akkerman plays with Ritmo Natural. He just had left Brainbox and after this recording he formed Focus.
Hans Dulfer (father of Candy Dulfer who played with Prince), also member of Ritmo Naturel, is a successful jazz saxophonist who had a big hit in Japan with Dig! in 1996.
The members of Slight Ache became very famous comedians in the Netherlands named Neerlands Hoop (Dutch Hope).
Continental Uptight Band had some commercial success in the Netherlands.
Never been famous Island is hard trying sounding like Led Zeppelin's Whole Lotta Love.
The lp of Ahora Mazda is available on cd.



To get some attention, the lp was named after the Beatles hit Hey Jude.
This was my second lp and I got it from my mother.

Supersister did some reunion concerts in 2000.
Now they released a 2 DVD set with the complete registration of the Paradiso concert and a documentary of the rehearsals for and concert at the ProgFest in L.A. Included on the DVD is a slideshow of old pictures of Supersister (including some of the pictures from my high school agenda). But more important is the fact that the music that goes with the slideshow is old, never released Supersister recordings. From the very beginning, when they played blues, to 1969 with psychedelic material, till one of the latest line-ups with Charlie Mariano.



1 Super blues
2 Seven ways to die
3 Session at De Laan
4 Present from Nancy
5 Mexico
6 Judy goes on holiday
7 Transmitter
8 Charlie's return from India
9 Looking back
