Promote your friends!

Who am I not to promote my friends and people I know?
I met the dutch rapper Engel a few years ago on Splash Hiphop Festival when I was there together with my friends Bint, Just (called Krieper back than) an Bathmuts, who formed "De Kroegdichters" back then. Hangin out I found out he was a rapper who even had a few albums out. I should have known better, but back then I wasn't realy big on Dutch Hiphop (Nederhop) except for de kroegdichters (what wasn't realy fair, their being my friends and all). Finaly Back in the Netherlands I descided to download some of his stuff and I really got in to his music.
Engel is one of the guys in the Netherlands who keeps it orriginal and is not ready to sell out to any mayor record label, scared they will change his sound and make it more into the crappy populair Hiphop that's going big nowadays. You kinda got to give the guy some respect, he doesn't go for the big bucks while struggeling for rent (don't we all). This Album follows the "geen weg terug" album and is the second free album he produced scince he started doing Hiphop. It has a nice oldskool sound to it and has some nice collaborations on it with different arists like Just (die van de Kroegdichters), Per.Verz and Master Surreal.

Here I am!

Dear friends and other people,
Here I am. Right now it's via tether on my I-phone. My home internet broke down, and this was the best possible way to share my thoughts and music though it's a bit hard to upload something new now.
Luckily I allready had some music uploaded on megaupload for you to listen to. While most of what I will upload will be more Hiphop en Drum and Bass orientated, I had a semi-classical album of Douwe Eisenga online.

Douwe Eisenga is a Dutch composer who studied at the Conservatory in Groningen and now lives in Zeeland where he teaches piano at the Zeeuwse Muziekschool (Music School of Zeeland). He discribes his music as "Mesmerizing music for the open mind. Time and again he creates a modern, irresistible groove with classical instruments. The resulting music is an intriguing mix of minimal and maximal, Colorful and sparkling with every new listening."

I hope You enjoy it!
