An Introduction To Dutch New Wave Volume 13

After a busy week at the office, we moved on the first of June to a new building, finally the vacation ogles. So the best way to start this vacation is presenting a new Volume.


This weeks Volume is based around, again, some vynil rips from resent obtained albums and from a fine source discovered on Facebook and YouTube. Diggin' Demos tries to find the stories behind (mainly) Dutch demo tapes. He uploads a demo on YouTube, complete with tracklist and all available information from the tape, and, when present, a link to discogs.com. On his Facebook site he then tries to come up with the story behind the tape, the band and the songs. Not directly from the band, but from people who bought the demo, saw the band or in some way were in contact with the band.

The front picture of this Volume is the mill The Mastiff (De Dog) in the village Uitgeest.

The tracks:

01. Triple X - Fighting (3:57)
02. André de Saint-Obin - The Human Machine (live) (4:14)

An Introduction To Dutch New Wave Vol. 32

And that brings us to Volume 32 of An Introduction To Dutch New Wave. This time 65% of the numbers came from recent purchased vinyl. I will keep telling that Discogs has become a major resource for discovering and hunting vinyl from bands and artists, that sometimes released one single only. But since a couple of weeks I am using a great cross reference site called Nederlandse vinylsingles . The guys behind this site are doing a great job, tracking down all Dutch vinyl singles. Some information on several songs. The Kimono track is spelled wrong. I kept it this way, since the cover of the single shows the same title. It’s one of the groups of which I used the single b-side instead of the a-side. The others are Blackout (b-side of Obscure Disco), G.T. Modell (b-side of Scratch Your Act) and Weekend At Waikiki (b-side of The Valley). Frederic And The Flies was a one off project by producer duo Bolland and Bolland. Not only the group name refers to Adam And The Ants, t...

Being a fan for many many years I was really surprised the band decided finally, after 25 years, to do an European tour again. I am aware of the fact that it's only Mike Score nowadays who's left of the old line-up. Still I like to see them, because back in 1984 I was unable to visit the famous Noorderligt at Tilburg. On 09-09-09 A Flock Of Seagulls will play the well known Paradiso theatre in Amsterdam. I became an instant fan of the four when I heard I Ran on the radio. But it was Wishing (if I had a photograph of you) which really turned me into AFOS. Through the years I was able to track down most of their vynil releases. And of course the CD's followed as well. I even became a member of the Airborne Division. With the internet things changed and in 1996 I was able to get a CDR copy of most of the b-sides and rare recordings of AFOS ripped from vynil, which I like to share with you. The recordings are from the period 1982 - 1985 when they had the line-up of: Mike Score ...
