2011-07-28T07:02:00.002+02:00

Thank you for this YouTube user bd594. His inspiration according to his site.

"This is dedicated to all fans of The B-52’s who are also known as the “Worlds Greatest Party Band”. This idea has been simmering in my mind for the last couple of years and after many months of procrastinating it is finally complete. I was also motivated to finish my robot band after seeing a YouTube Video from “The Trons” from New Zealand.

The Bit-52’s consist of:

Fred’s Vocals - TI99/4a computer, speech synthesizer and terminal emulator ii module
Kate and Cindy’s Vocals - Two HP Scanjet 3C scanners, UBunto and sjetplay written by NuGanjaTron
The Guitar, Keyboard, Cow Bell, Cymbal and Tambourine are all controlled by various types of push/pull solenoinds for a total of 23. The Solenoids are powered by four ULN2803 darlington drivers and everything is controlled by two PIC16F84A microcontrollers".

Apart from full-god Prince, I also saw half-god Bootsy Collins play North Sea Jazz last Sunday. While watching I was wondering by myself... How does one play the funk. Luckily the person I was standing with reminded me of a BBC show from the early 80's called "Rockschool". In episode three "How to play funk", the likes of Herbie Hancock, Larry Graham and Bootsy Collins explain how. Watch the clip in the beginning for some funny as hell opening credits and Herbie's welcome words, then skip to 3:37 to find out about Bootsy Collins' "One".

Yesterday former keeper of the Dutch national team, Feyenoord and Arsenal, Ed de Goey, did a TV-interview in a program called Holland Sport. Nothing remotely interesting was said, if anything the interview was horrible and insulting to the legendary goalkeeper. It did remind me of a different interview about his record collection from some years ago. Ed amongst other things speaks about Gabber, "something some of the dark skinned players like" and the music they should play when Holland becomes world champion.

Perfect Röyksopp. Well Röyksopp. Personally I'm not a fan and that's putting it mildly. My friend Arnaud once described their music very well as "one endless ringtone" and I think I have to agree with that description.
However, just because I don't like it, doesn't mean I can force other people have to hate it as well (but I can try!). Victor Romijn created a 2 hour (that's a really long ringtone) summary of Röyksopp highlights you can listen to by dowloading here and spotifying here.
