Afgelopen zondag is het 33 jaar geleden dat mijn moeder op 54 jarige leeftijd is overleden. Ook toen viel pasen in het weekend erop. Op 28 maart 1991 is ze begraven op Witte Donderdag. In 2002 heb ik deze mix-cd 100% Thea gemaakt ter nagedachtenis van mijn moeder Thea: herinneren is ontmoeten. Lieve Thea, ik bedank je voor alle vrolijkheid, gevoeligheid en liefde die ik van jou heb gekregen. Hou van je ❤️

Van haar heb ik geleerd om zelfstandig beslissingen te nemen en verantwoordelijk te zijn voor je eigen acties. Van mijn vader heb ik mijn liefde voor muziek gekregen. De cd is een compilatie van nummers waarin ik mijn verdriet en vrolijkheid kan stoppen. Het is voor mij een manier om de dood en het verlies een plek te geven. Door naar de cd te luisteren haal ik herinneringen en gevoelens op over mijn moeder.

De eerste drie nummers markeren het begin van Thea’s leven. Het nummer Pennies from Heaven van Billie Holiday (de favoriet van mijn vader) werd 5 dagen na Thea’s geboorte opgenomen. De Franse nummers doen mij denken aan de fijne (strand)vakanties in Frankrijk. LOVE kregen we veel van onze ouders. Verder een drietal exotische nummers waar ik vrolijk van word: Shirley Bassey, een Spaans nummer en een bossanova-nummer. Het gevoelige Miles Davis nummer staat voor alle Jazz waarmee ik ben opgegroeid en zegt ook iets over mezelf. De LP West Side Story heb ik thuis grijs gedraaid, Maria mag dus niet ontbreken. Het nummer I don’t know how to love him uit de film Jesus Christ Superstar was het favoriete nummer van Thea. Moby sluit hier mooi op aan met een breekbaar afscheidsnummer. Etta James is een sfeervol jazzy nummer waarin veel soul zit en gaat over herinneringen (ophalen). Sunday Bloody Sunday van U2 weerspiegelt mijn woede en onmacht over de dag van haar heengaan. De muziek van Amélie is schitterend en past precies in de lijn van Erik Satie. De enige muziek die mijn moeder nog kon waarderen in de laatste maanden van haar leven en werd ook gedraaid tijdens de begrafenis. Hierover heeft mijn broer Joris zijn gevoel gestopt in het schrijven van gedichten, verhalen en muziek. Het nummer Mother spreekt voor zich. Het laatste nummer is een anthem ter ere van Thea uitgevoerd door de Belgische groep Laïs: Dorothea, tevens de naam van haar moeder. Met dank aan mijn vader Gabriël en broer Joris voor hun steun en inspiratie. ❤️ en proost! 🍻

Veel luisterplezier. Maarten aka Dj Marx

I’m at Club Africa 💪🏿🖤🎶😍

⚫️⚫️ Club Africa, Vol. 1: Hard African Funk, Afro-Jazz, & Original Afro-Beat. Compiled by Russ Dewbury.
Various Artists 1999
Recording Date: April 14, 1975 & June 4, 1976

Beat Review by Stephen Cook
“One of a handful of Afro beat/Afro jazz compilations put out by British promoter and DJ Ross Dewbury, Club Africa features an infectious blend of ‘70s cuts informed by Fela’s groundbreaking Afro roots and jazz blend. High profile moments come courtesy of Mandingo, Peter King, and Miriam Makeba, revealing the collection’s cross-cultural bent in the process. In fact, a good amount here is global, coming from the likes of Columbia’s Wganda Kenya, the New York-African group Buari (featuring jazz drummer Bernard Purdie), and the U.S. session band behind Chakachas’ funk hit “Jungle Fever.” And, yes, there is plenty of Africa here too, not only in all the music of course, but more directly in the Fela-meets-Sunny Ade side “Jungle Funk” by Nigeria’s Nkengas and the Afro-Cuban cut “Kenia” by Kenya’s Mombasa. The grooves are incredible throughout, making it easy to believe, as Dewbury purports in the liner notes, that this music is “the flavor of ‘99 with cutting edge DJs.” Save for the Gaytones’ lifeless rendition of the Manu Dibango hit “Soul Makossa” and the Ashantis’ Afro-Allman Brothers jam “Everybody’s Groove,” it’s not hard to see why the hipsters of Dance Nation are getting down to cuts like these.”

“WE FOUND LOVE” ❤️
White whale album

I had to think a lot about this challenge: what is a white whale? Do I have one? Do I need one? Searching on the net I found out that this phrase comes from Moby Dick. 👇
“The phrase “white whale” refers to an obsession that is dangerous to an individual’s safety and/or health. Oeps 😬

The expression “white whale” is used to refer to an activity or thing an individual obsesses over and/or is constantly chasing to the point that it becomes dangerous for their health or safety.

The white whale is an individual’s ultimate goal, according to Urban Dictionary.

It is derived from the story of Moby Dick. Captain Ahab was obsessed with hunting and killing the white whale, Moby Dick.”

So saying this: what is my dangerous obsession in vinyl or music? I Don’t have but …

🙄 last night I saw the awesome movie ‘Bob Marley: One Love’ and then I realized that I want to experience for once a concert with Bob Marley & The Wailers. So I have to give everything up to build a timemachine. And go back to 1978 and visit a concert of Bob Marley. That will be my white whale 🐳

PS Go see the movie about Bob Marley 🎥 💚💛❤️

“16 Shells From A Thirty-Ought-Six”

I plugged 16 shells from a thirty-ought-six
and a Black Crow snuck through
a hole in the sky
so I spent all my buttons on an
old pack mule
and I made me a ladder from
a pawn shop marimba
and I leaned it up against
a dandelion tree

And I filled me a sachel
full of old pig corn
and I beat me a billy
from an old French horn
and I kicked that mule
to the top of the tree
and I blew me a hole
‘bout the size of a kickdrum
and I cut me a switch
from a long branch elbow

[Chorus]
I’m gonna whittle you into kindlin’
Black Crow 16 shells from a thirty-ought-six
whittle you into kindlin’
Black Crow 16 shells from a thirty-ought-six

Well I slept in the holler
of a dry creek bed
and I tore out the buckets
from a red Corvette, tore out the buckets from a red Corvette
Lionel and Dave and the Butcher made three
you got to meet me by the knuckles of the skinnybone tree
with the strings of a Washburn
stretched like a clothes line
you know me and that mule scrambled right through the hole

[Repeat Chorus]

Now I hold him prisoner
in a Washburn jail
that stapped on the back
of my old kick mule
strapped it on the back of my old kick mule
I bang on the strings just
to drive him crazy
I strum it loud just to rattle his cage
strum it loud just to rattle his cage

[Repeat Chorus]

“CHEEK TO CHEEK”


Choose one! ☝️ These are two hiphop masterpieces and both debut albums: De La Soul’s 3 Feet High and Rising is from 1989 and Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) is released 4 years later in 1993. 🤘🏿🎶👍

De La Soul is formed in 1988 in the village of Amityville on Long Island, New York. Wu-Tang Clan is an American hip hop collective formed in Staten Island, New York in 1992.

Two very different hip hop styles but both very original 👏 I love them very much 😍

♥️ Siouxsie and the Banshees - Tinderbox (1986) great newwave album (nowadays they call it gothic) and ticks the box and day 14 of the 😁😍🎵

Tinderbox is the seventh studio album by English rock band Siouxsie and the Banshees. It was released on 21 April 1986. Two songs were released as singles between late 1985 and early 1986, “Cities in Dust” and “Candyman”.

At the beginning of the song “92°”, there is a sample from the 1953 film It Came from Outer Space with the line: “Did you know ... that more murders are committed at 92 Fahrenheit than any other temperature? I read an article once. Lower temperatures, people are easygoing. Over 92, it’s too hot to move. But just 92, people get irritable”.

The sleeve reproduced a picture of a tornado, taken by Lucille Handberg near the town of Jasper, Minnesota, on 8 July 1927.

♥️ Only You ♥️

Looking from a window above
It’s like a story of love
Can you hear me?
Came back only yesterday
I’m moving farther away
Want you near me

All I needed was the love you gave
All I needed for another day
And all I ever knew
Only you

Sometimes, when I think of her name
When it’s only a game
And I need you
Listen to the words that you say
It’s getting harder to stay
When I see you

All I needed was the love you gave
All I needed for another day
And all I ever knew
Only you

All I needed was the love you gave
All I needed for another day
And all I ever knew
Only you

This is gonna take a long time
And I wonder what’s mine
Can’t take no more (can’t take no more)
Wonder if you’ll understand
It’s just the touch of your hand
Behind a closed door

All I needed was the love you gave
All I needed for another day
And all I ever knew (all I ever knew)
Only you

Foreign/International Album

🎵 BRAINPOWER - The New York Sessions 10th Anniversary Edition (2023)
Limited Edition, release on Record Store Day 22-4-2023 🇳🇱
🟢 Glow in the Dark Vinyl (see ▶️)

Last year Rapper Brainpower gave a lecture on 50 years of HIPHOP. Great show to see & hear about the history of hiphop starting on 11 August 1973. In the Netherlands, Brainpower is one of the pioneers and a more than enthusiastic ambassador of the music style that is ubiquitous today. He knows and met all the great hiphop legends. And made this album in New York with guest rappers from America. 👍👍👍🎵
