Cat22 tag spotted on Dutch 45
2 comments
Here’s a funny scan from Amsterdamned (1988), which was one of the earlier “big budget” action thrillers from the Netherlands. The single, taken from the film’s soundtrack, features a few action stills on the back showing all the reasons why you should see this movie. One shot features a tag by our very own graffiti bomber and vinyl collector Cat22, which is funny because this 45 comes from his own collection. Thought we’d share this with you for shits & giggles…

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.
Maximum B-Boy II: 30.000
According to our site statistics, Maximum B-Boy II has been downloaded a friggin’ 30.000 times! The ultimate soundtrack to all out war and destruction, Maximum B-Boy II is just the right tool for any tactical battle configuration. Wicked warlords and terrible generals worldwide agree on this. But yeah anyway, this makes Maximum B-Boy II the hottest mix amongst our listeners. We appreciate the ongoing support, and the notion that so many people have listened to our output is just mind blowing in itself.

Make some noise!
Since we’ve been sharing forgotten music with anyone willing to listen, friends and acquaintances have been giving us props, but we are particularly interested in what YOU have to say. Yes, you out there in Vancouver, Dortmund, Paris, Shanghai, Texel, Mayrhofen, Tokyo, Cambridge, and anywhere else in the world wide web of funk. So, the floodgates are open, you’re welcome to post comments on our mixes, posts and articles both new and old. Just click that little text balloon above each post and comment to your heart’s content.
Download Music page updated
Hey funk freaks, we’ve updated our overview page a bit. Since we’re cranking out mixes like a meat grinder making… well, meat, we figured the overview page (taken from the old defunct web site) needed some design love. Don’t worry though, because just like before, you will always be two clicks away from musical heaven.
