Happy NEW year everybody! For those of you interested, I started 2012 dj-ing at the Neon Space Beach NYE party at WILLIE in Havenkwartier Deventer. Please listen to my dj-set (I don’t record them often, so enjoy):
I have no doubt this esc.rec. year holds nothing but sweetness… again ;)
For starters NEW is coming with a brand NEW release and esc.rec. signed up for the digital distribution again, just like last year with NEW 6.0. We see a lot of new names from the East of the Netherlands on this release and some old aquaintances from previous release(s). Check the full NEW 7.0 selection overhere. It’s got some pretty impressive tracks on there! As with NEW 6.0 this release is also distributed as a free CD release.
NEW 7.0 is officially presented to the public with a double release party:
February 10 in Merleyn, Nijmegen
February 11 in Burgerweeshuis, Deventer
Some time ago, Arthur van Beek of The Eddie The Eagle Museum in Amsterdam, asked me to come up with some (esc.rec.) artists for their Hackathon event. So I made a list. They went for Xavier ‘Xaf’ van Wersch and he also went for them.
Sadly I couldn’t be there myself that day, because the photo’s of Hackathon and the video below suggest I’ve missed out on a great party…

Bram ‘Gluid’ van den Oever finally welcomes the internet-age into his life, after holding back a decade or so. This wouldn’t be of any interest to you, were it not that his connecting to the world wide web also means he is now happily uploading exclusive, never released material on his brand new Soundcloud account. More Gluid for you all!
Check Gluid’s latest release on esc.rec. here.

Like said before, composer and theatre maker Dick Raaijmakers is to receive the Witteveen+Bos Art+Technology Award 2011 for his entire oeuvre. The award ceremony takes place in the Bergkerk Church in Deventer on 10 November 2011, and will be celebrated with a Raaijmakers exhibition which will run until 4 December 2011.
On the last day of this exhibition, esc.rec. organizes a special 18th edition of ass-crack stage-hack with a complementary program about Dick Raaijmakers at WILLIE in Havenkwartier Deventer. You can attend this program after your visit to the exhibition in the Bergkerk Church; WILLIE opens at 15:00 hrs.
Starting at 15:30 with a screening of the film ‘Op zoek naar een vergeten toepassing – A portrait of Dick Raaijmakers by Jacqueline Oskamp‘. Jacqueline Oskamp is also the author of the book ‘Onder Stroom’, in which she vividly describes the history of Dutch electronic music. She is present at the screening, tells us more about Dick Raaijmakers and answers questions if needed.
After you’ve enjoyed a good meal at WILLIE, the program continues with three concerts/performances/installations which have an obvious relation to the work of Dick Raaijmakers. Performing artists are Cathy van Eck, Radboud Mens and Wouter van Veldhoven.
TweetEsc.rec. is a small record label and platform for adventurous music.
