An Introduction To Dutch New Wave Volume 16



After a break of six weeks I present you a new volume. It contains a mix of old names and new names of which I hope you like. Track 20 is a bit of a joke. I only found out a couple of weeks ago, that Taco is a Dutch singer with roots in Indonesia. To be honest I always assumed he was a German singer.

The Tracks:

01. Van Lukas - The Riot (3:00)
02. Michiel Peters - Silence On The Block (4:05)
03. Titz - Th Bells (5:31)
04. Zsa Zsa - Plastic Doll (4:57)
05. The Spot - Balance Of Power (3:51)
06. Eton Crop - Get Something For Doing Nothing (3:42)
07. Turf - Crime Of Passion (3:53)
08. Perfect Vue - They're Watching You (5:17)
09. Boys In Parx - Break The Ice (6:43)
10. Splunge - Colourblind (4:18)
11. The Visitors - Spiral Of Spiderlimbs (3:47)
12. Tent - The Fear (3:20)
13. The Ex - The Rise Of The Dutch Republic (3:53)
14. The Phones - The Lizard's Show (3:09)
15. Hi Jinx - Verona (2:42)

20. Taco - Putin' On The Ritz (4:41)

The link.

The picture shows the lighthouse of Marken called the Paard van Marken (Horse of Marken). Which was built in 1839 by J. Valk. A primitive lighthouse had been on the location since the early 18th century; the current lighthouse is a Rijksmonument since 1970.

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.

Not only the group name refers to Adam And The Ants, t...

A Flock Of Seagulls

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 ...
