Gaspard Augé (27) en Xavier de Rosnay (24) vormen de Franse band Justice. Sinds hun naamloze debuutalbum in 2007 worden ze gekatapulteerd tot rocksterren en zijn ze in rap tempo de wereld aan het veroveren met hun overweldigende sound en kenmerkende optredens met een enorm verlicht kruis.
After his summer smash hit "Napolitanzer" together with Fokko Versloot it was time for Beatfreax to ask him to do a mix for our podcast. And here it is! An awesome mix with tracks by e.g. Nils Number, Dimitri Andreas, Lopazz and of course the man himself.
Vrijdag 30 januari gaat het hek weer van de dam; Full Spectrum gooit de deuren van Tivoli De Helling open voor haar eerste editie van het nieuwe jaar! Met een behoorlijke vleug Worcester saus, komt zij deze keer met flink wat Brits vlees op tafel.
Sander Kleinenberg keert met zijn ‘This Is’ concept terug naar Paradiso. Na een zeer succesvolle ‘This Is Paradiso’ in 2008 was het voor beide partijen niet meer dan logisch om het niet bij 1 keer te laten.
What would the world of modern music be like without the inventions of Bob Moog? One answer would be: very boring. Bob Moog’s namesake analog synthesizers have affected popular music in ways he might not have expected back in 1954 when he began building theremins with his father. But 50 years later, Bob’s musical instruments have catapulted so many styles of music into the future, and his contributions to both players and technicians grow even more profound in retrospect.
Where would R&B, rap and hip-hop be if groups like Parliament and Funkadelic hadn’t used Moog keyboards? Where would rock and roll be if groups from Yes to the Beatles hadn’t used Moog keyboards? Would jazz music have branched off into fusion without Herbie Hancock and Chick Corea using Moog keyboards? And would classical music have enjoyed such resurgence without Wendy Carlos and her modular Moog synthesizer? The questions are hypothetical, of course, because synthesizers have infiltrated every style of music, and so many companies have tried to recreate that analog sound. But above all the copycats and spin-offs, it always comes back to one name: Moog.
