At least, that’s what you think when you hear that Racoon was dropped by their record label after two fine releases which sold quite well, but not enough for their major label. The band decided not to give up and concentrated on writing new songs, and it paid off, as the album ‘ Another Day’ proved. With the romantic and soothing single Love You More Racoon made a huge comeback and became more successful than ever before, resulting in massive album sales and a place on the main stage of Holland’s biggest music festival Pinkpop. Just wait until the rest of the world discovers them… www.racoon.nl PHOTO RENÉ DAMKOT PHOTO MAURITS GIESEN You gotta say yes to another excess! Peter Pan Speedrock certainly do. Hailing from Eindhoven (Rock City), this powerhouse of a trio play super-fast maximum rock’n’roll. They’ve been compared to bands such as Nashville Pussy, Motorhead, The Hellacopters, and Gluecifer, but Peter Pan Speedrock force others to play by their rules. The group is known for their spectacular live shows but for your daily dose of rock excess you can pick up their latest album Spread Eagle, a beast of an album. www.peterpanspeedrock.nl KRAAK & SMAAK When the lads across the Channel are enthousiastic about something not-British, it’s time to take notice. The Hague’s Kraak & Smaak got the buzz going with their first 12”’s and is a true favourite of dance/funklovers across Europe, thanks to their sizzling debutalbum Boogie Angst. The trio is even more energetic onstage, where they are often accompanied by a horn section and various guests, including a breakdancer and DJ. The English have already nicknamed the trio Crack & Smack, and that tells also something about the addictiveness of this band. www.kraaksmaak.nl www.dutchsound.nl | september 2006 DUTCH ARTISTS PLAYING AT POPKOMM & REEPERBAHN BLUES BROTHER CASTRO LEGOWELT Blues Brother Castro has often been called the hardest working band in Holland. They recently released their first single and video for the song Drunken Boy off the Money Maker Me-album. Having played across Europe and the US on various occasions BBC is emerging on the international music-scene. No wonder they named their second album ‘Fun’, because they are certainly having a lot of it-taking their Pixieslike sound with them on the way. www.bluesbrothercastro.nl PHOTO MICHEL LINSSEN THE GATHERING What’s so great about Dutch electronic music? You mean, except for the original ideas, the high quality level and the international recognition? It’s the humour! What to think about Legowelt tracks like Stumvogel or Total Pussy Control? Exactly. Danny Wolfers is a one of a kind producer and has been releasing music on various formats and under various names ever since the early nineties, and keeps on doing so under much praise. If you’re in for something truly unique, then check out Legowelt. www.xs4all.nl/~awolfe/ A decade ago the Gathering pioneered the currently popular Goth trend in the Netherlands. Singer Anneke van Giersbergen became the role model of a legion of similar bands. Since then, the band has moved into ‘trip rock’ territory, as demonstrated at Glastonbury 2003 or on their various tours throughout Mexico. While Within Temptation may be better known nowadays, it’s safe to say that they wouldn’t exist in the way they currently do without The Gathering. The band from Oss has left the goth-path to explore unknown territories and are eager to take you with them. www.gathering.nl dutchsound.news is an initiative of the Buma Cultuur foundation, supported by Buma/Stemra DUTCH ARTISTS PLAYING AT POPKOMM & REEPERBAHN zZz PHOTO ROBBERT TILLI Organ, drumzzz and vocalzzz. A lot of buzzz and groovezzz. Well, that’s zZz. They go buzzz buzzz buzz, and it’s just becuzzz they’re bonkerzzz. Imagine the doomy vocals of the late Ian Curtis (Joy Division) and the psychobilly madnezzz of Lux Interior (Cramps) rolled into one. zZz, pronounzzzed like the French say jazz (minus the ja, obviously) have toured the USzzz zzzeveral timezzz and alzzzo went to Japan to support Fatboy Slim. zZz is unique and they know it. www.soundofzzz.nl STUURBAARD BAKKEBAARD GEM Calexico meets Zita Swoon, but then in an incomparable style that defies categorizing. From 1996, they played all over Europe, including support in 2004 for Norway’s Kaisers Orchestra, and did a South African tour. The album Whistle Dixie is released in 2005, while Stuurbaard Bakkebaard also did support shows in Holland for G-Love & Special Sauce and got invited to the Popup Musikmesse in Leipzig. www.stuurbaardbakkebaard.nl KREZIP Krezip were the youngest band to ever play Holland’s Pinkpop festival in 2000. Their debut album topped the Dutch album chart and went triple platinum. They won a Zilveren Harp, an Edison award and several TMF Awards, played festivals like Noorder-slag, Lowlands, Werchter and Pinkpop. Krezip also toured Germany twice and did support slots for Bon Jovi and Sheryl Crow in Holland, Germany and France. In 2003 the band did an acoustic tour, released on CD and DVD. Following the recording of third album What Are You Waiting For (Sony/BMG), the band recently sold out Columbia Fritz in Berlin several weeks before the show. www.krezip.com www.dutchsound.nl | september 2006 ‘Tell Me What’s New’ is the call to arms of one of Holland’s most exciting new bands. Initially making their appearance on a Dutch talent sampler (sound familiar?!!), 2004 has been a hell of a year for this five-piece. At times, it seems like singer Maurits Westerik would find himself in a severe crisis if he didn’t front a rock ‘n’ roll band. Taking equal parts out of the book Julian and the book Liam, he possesses the brawn, the swagger, and Gem might just pull it off. The sound? Think Libertines, thing Strokes, think power! The Dutch aren’t known as a country with experience when it comes to the phe- nomenon of hype, but Gem might just prove them wrong with their intriguing melodies. ‘Tonight’ is an Eighties-influenced powerhouse of a song, and it’ll have you singing along in a heartbeat. Gem have recently performed at the CMJ Seminar, at PopKomm, Haldern Pop, and at Aberdeen’s Go North conference. The band from Utrecht have been hailed as a breath of fresh air and with their second album ‘Escapades’ have proven they are one of the finest bands of today’s rockscene. www.gemmusic.nl ARTIKEL-TITEL BIOGRAPHIES NEUE IN KAPITALEN HOLLÄNDISCHE WELLE CD PART 3.0 DUTCH MUSIC WITH VISIONS A special ‘Neue Hollandische Welle’ CD now accompanies the September issue of Visions magazine in Germany. Presenting some of the most prolific bands from the Netherlands, NHW now sees its third edition and is also handed out at the Dutch stand at Popkomm and at some of the shows. The tracklisting: 3.

GEM > The Subterranean Parade Van Der Zwaard Management [email protected] www.gemmusic.nl Biography see page 5. 2. Anouk > More Than You Deserve EMI Music Netherlands [email protected] www.anouk.com Born in The Hague in 1975, Anouk is truly a Dutch diva. Known for her explosive live performances, on stage she’s a maelstrom of blonde hair and attitude easily managing to out-rock her male band. Right from the start her powerful voice and matching personality made people sit up and take notice. Her first serious steps on the musical ladder started back in 1996, when she was invited to support fellow rock legends Golden Earring. 1997 sees the release of her debut single ‘Nobody’s Wife’ which goes platinum in Holland, Sweden and Norway. From then on it’s straight to the top; the following years she clocks up numerous awards and accolades including an Edison for Best National Singer, TMF Awards, performances at major European festivals and a Golden Harp in 2003. ‘Hotel New York’, her latest album released in 2004, sees the singer explore reggae, funk and soul styles. Spawning a string of hit singles, the album went gold after just one week. It seems the golden girl can do no wrong. No wonder her fellow musician husband, Postman asked her to sing almost all of the backing vocals on his reggae/rap album ‘Green’. 4. Green Lizard > Walk over Water Endewerf Management | [email protected] | www.green-lizard.com Green Lizard is a well established Dutch band. After having their first EP produced by Jack Endino, they made two albums for Sony Music and toured all over the world for bigger and bigger audiences. They played the Vans World Tour in 2003/2004, and after that opened for bands like The Rasmus and Living Colour. ‘Las Armas Del Silencio’ is the name of their third album and was mixed by Clif Norrell (No Doubt, Faith No More) and released by I Scream Records. They are already popular in France and also played at this year’s Sziget Festival. 5. Junkie XL > Today The All Blacks B.V.

Johan > She’s Got A Way With Men Excelsior Recordings | [email protected] | www.johan4all.com One of Netherlands’ best secrets is Johan, the band of singer/songwriter Jacco de Greeuw. Many Dutch music lovers cheered when they heard Johan was to release a new album this year, THX JHN. Jacco de Greeuw knows the less sunny side of life, which enables him to write perfect popsongs with a melancholy touch, but also prevents him from releasing them too often which resulted in five long years between the second album Pergola and THX JHN and between the debut and Pergola. The self titled debut album even got a release in the US, but not in Argentina. Reason enough for an Argentinian fan to travel more than 10.000 miles to see her favourite band live. Fortunately you don’t have to travel that far, as Johan is more than happy to undertake on a European trek. 8. Racoon > Love you More Play It Again Sam | [email protected] | www.racoon.nl Biography see page 3. 9. Pete Philly & Perquisite > Mellow Epitaph Europe | [email protected] | www.ourmindstate.com Mindstate, the debut album by Pete Philly and Perquisite, takes you back to the glory days when hip hop MCs made the crowd dance, and when hip hop lyrics used to make people think. As a live band with bass, saxophone and cello, they’ve toured Europe with Kanye West, Leela James, Dizzee Rascal and Saian Supa Crew, and rocked crowds at festivals such as North Sea Jazz, Lowlands and Capetown Jazz. Following the release of Mindstate in Europe and Japan in 2005, the album was also released in America, Canada and Australia in May 2006 on the ANTI label, home to artists such as Tom Waits, Blackalicious and Michael Franti. The duo is already planning a second album, but will have to wait until the attention for Mindstate has cooled somewhat first. Therefore, expect that album sometime around 2015… 10. Postman > Firing EMI Music Netherlands | [email protected] | www.postman-online.com Postman is Remon Stotijn, a producer/rapper from Rotterdam. With his debut album Documents, Stotijn scored four hit singles and the best-selling Dutch hiphop album of all time. With a love for both reggae and hiphop the music of Postman is an amazing blend of lyrical depth and original music. Although Postman used to be a trio under the name of Postmen, the impetus behind the band was clearly Stotijn as can be heard on Green, his fourth album. 11. zZz > Ecstasy Gentle Management | [email protected] | www.soundofzzz.nl Biography see page 5. www.dutchsound.nl | september 2006 7. Ilse de Lange > The Great Escape Universal Music Netherlands [email protected] www.ilsedelange.com The Netherlands have their own little piece of Nashville country and she goes by the name of Ilse de Lange. At the age of 21, Ilse got to record an album in Nashville and the Dutch woke up: they had a country star in their midst. World Of Hurt, her much acclaimed debut album, didn’t pass by unnoticed. A whopping 450.000 albums were sold, meaning 1 in 32 Dutchies have a copy at home. She got to play every big venue and festival, something she continued while releasing the follow up 4 albums, and she also picked up an Edison (the Dutch equivalent of a Grammy), for her fourth album Clean Up along the way. Her latest album The Great Escape reached number 1 in the national charts. Not bad for a girl who used to work in a shoe store, is it? 12.

Aardvarck > Cult Copy P 2 Rush Hour Recordings [email protected] www.myspace.com/aardvarck Mike Kivits is DJ Aardvarck, and he’s been a player in the Dutch dance scene ever since his first discovery of house. Having released records on Rush Hour, Djax UpBeats, Signum, Music For Speakers and Delsin, last year Aardvarck shot to fame with Cult Copy, a track that attracted attention from top DJ ‘s such as Carl Craig, Rolando, Josh Wink, Trevor Jackson and Ivan Smagghe. The eponymously titled album got rave reviews in magazines worldwide and Kivits is hailed as having made THE dance record of 2006. If dance music is your thing then Aardvarck won’t disappoint you. 18. Peter Pan Speedrock > Tonight Allright SOZ Concerts [email protected] www.peterpanspeedrock.com Biography see page 3. 19. After Forever > Two Sides Transmission Records [email protected] www.transmissionrecords.nl 15. Legowelt > Mistress of House Clone Records | [email protected] | www.legowelt.com Biography see page 4. 16. Arling & Cameron > Shake It Marcel van den Broek | [email protected] | www.arlingandcameron.nl Five years after the last time they hooked up together, Arling & Cameron are back with a new album. Hi-Fi Underground was released on June 3 in Germany, Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg. Arling & Cameron have released several influential albums, including Music for Imaginary Films, for which they received the most important music prize in the Netherlands, the Popprijs. The highly danceable and upbeat music of Arling & Cameron has been used in lots of movies, series and commercials (Austin Powers, Sopranos, Audi, among others) and is known around the world. It won’t take long before Hi Fi Underground follows that example. 17. Face Tomorrow > My World Within Face Tomorrow | [email protected] | www.facetomorrow.net Last year Face Tomorrow’s second album The Closer You Get saw the light of day. Their mixture of pop, rock, punk and indie has matured even further on this record. The band regularly totals over 400 shows throughout Europe at venues and big festivals. 20. Epica > Quietus (Silent Reverie) Transmission Entertainment [email protected] www.epica.nl Goth rock is The Big Thing in Holland currently and it’s fast taking over Europe too. Female singers in long black dresses are all over the media. Epica, founded by ex-After Forever’s Mark Jansen, is everything you knew about Goth so far grown into epic proportions. Let Simone Simons be your siren, but don’t be fooled by her looks. This lady knows how to seduce you with both her voice and her stage presence, while her band knows how to back her up with a powerful sound. > NEWS, INFO, STREAMS AND DOWNLOADS AT: • www.neuehollandischewelle.nl • www.laut.de dutchsound.news is an initiative of the Buma Cultuur foundation, supported by Buma/Stemra ARTIKEL-TITEL DUTCH COMPANIES IN KAPITALEN AT POPKOMM Over 50 Dutch companies at Popkomm Dutch music industry in full speed at Popkomm 2006.
