Tracks: Vetkwabben Rollen (Poem/In Het Dove Oor/Ford Mustang Blues (Poem)/Dubbele Penetratie/Suicide Blauw.

Note: Rotterdam Cult Underground Singer/Songwriter Ricky de Sire (Eric de Boer) previewed his latest vinyl 7” ij the show with a hesitating, slow interview and some live-tracks, accompanied by Arie van Vliet (Boring Pop) and Niek Hilkman (Yoshimi!). Great and unique at the same time. But what a musician he is!

Yoshimi!, 'Live On Air' December 2nd 2011..

Yoshimi! (Rotterdam), live on air.
Recorded: December 2nd 2011, ‘Gouwestad Radio Studio 2.
Tracks: Het Simpele Lied/De Eerste En De Laatste-Messed Up/Hope

Note: Inbetween 2(!) releaseparties for his Dutch language third CD ‘Sowieso’ Niek and his bgrother visited the studio for a second liveset and interview. Which was one of the more amazing, amusing and interesting ones. During the last song, they went completely loose on the more dynamic parts, resulting in stressed collegues, who tried to record a program in the adjacent studio. Which didn’t work with a kick and snare beaten to their limits.

Boring Pop, Friday April 1st 2011.

Boring Pop (Rotterdam area), live on air.
Recorded: April 1st 2011, ‘Gouwestad Radio Studio 2.
Tracks: The Man Upstairs/What He Likes/A Doll/ Black Lines/Flies In The Kitchen

Note: Lighthearted pop by (former) ‘Yoshimi’ guitarist and drummer, with harmony vocals and lighthearted melodies. Lyrical a bit more grimm at points though. Nice guys, which meant a great time on and around airtime.
