Hollandse Maatjes!
Eigen Breaks Eerst! If you like to get down, this might help. With Eigen Funk Eerst 6 – Hollandse Maatjes we took the best Dutch breaks from our previous Eigen Funk Eerst series, and jostled them about a little. Here’s the result, enjoy!
R.I.P Jerry van Rooyen
Yesterday, Dutch composer and musician Jerry Van Rooyen died at age 80. His work has always been an important contributor in Die Schallplattenpolizei’s Dutch funk mixes, and we wish to extend our sincere condolances to the Van Rooyen family. Jerry will be missed, and may his music find its way to many ears both young and old for generations to come.
Eigen Funk Eerst 5
Just when you thought we ran out of bullets, we’re proud to announce the fifth installment in our series of funk from the Netherlands! This mix’s theme is all about the Red Light District, pimps, hookers, gamblers, drunks, bar fights, and a whole lot of funk breaks make number five pretty alive. Download it for zilch and enjoy.
Eigen Funk Eerst 4
They say good things come in threes, but four is more than three so that’s just better. Some Surinamese artists, such as Lieve Hugo and the Happy Boys, give Eigen Funk Eerst 4 a bit of a Bijlmerfunk flavor, but tulips, windmills and some good old funk are still the main ingredients of course! The download also contains an extra special Bakra Breaks Bonus Mix for all you b-boys and b-girls who want something to battle to!
Rock Ya Soul
Collaborating with SoulTrotter, we took the best of our Dutch Funk mixes and brought them to the battle grounds! We made this mix as a free give-away for Rock Ya Soul Session 2007, which also happened to be the Black Soil Hip Hop Film Festival’s afterparty in Amsterdam. For more info on Rock Ya Soul, check out SoulTrotter.
Eigen Funk Eerst Deel 3
“Nederland is vrij” – and so we kick off mix number three in our Dutch Funk escapades. The ride goes from funky to moody and weird, which makes this mix a bit of a first. Like all our other mixes, get it for free and helps us unforget this unforgettable music!
Wederom Eigen Funk Eerst
Tiiiime for music, in part two of Eigen Funk Eerst. In this mix, the Dutch Sesame Street muppets Tommie & Ieniemienie are doing the monkey dance rap, and Jimi Bellmartin thinks you’re So Fine, can you dig it? Download now for nada of course!
Eigen Funk Eerst
This is it, our first offering in what has now become a big collection of funky Dutch delicacies and rarities. From Tony & Reality to Oscar Harris & the Twinkle Stars, all the usual (and less usual) suspects are here. Check it out and drop some comments.
