We have decided to take a break from doing ¡Forward, Russia! (for the near future)- for a lot of different reasons.
The last few months of inactivity has led us all on paths away from the band. I know that sounds odd, having released an album only a few months ago, but I don't think any of us were connected to the mechanics of its release. I don't know how it happened, but I want to thank all our management, the guys and gals at Cooking Vinyl and all the other people who worked on the record for putting all their efforts into the release of 'Life Processes' and apologise for our complete failure to engage in the release of it.
So to reach the present. Katie is moving to Nottingham in a few weeks, having taken the opportunity to do an art foundation course there (she's in need of a new 'posse' apparently, so get in touch if you can help).
Tom will be keeping busy producing some of the hottest young talent in the country, he's been doing a lot of work with a band called 'Minaars' - you can check him out at http://www.myspace.com/tomwoodhead - and you can get in touch with him at tdwoodheadgmail.com if you want to get in touch with him about producing your next pop record
From now until October? We did talk about releasing a Gravity & Heat EP, which may or may not now go ahead - certainly not in a physical format unfortunately. As mentioned it wouldn't have anything new from us, but we did ask a few people to do some remixes.
Apart from that, we have been trying to get together as many live bootlegs, session tracks and 'rarities' as we can, with the thought of putting as many as possible on our website for people to enjoy. This depends on £ and webspace, but we'll work on it and let you know how we do - hopefully we can do something by the time of the gig in October
Ticket details for Brainwash Festival, will be available soon, keep checking the websites above, as well as our own website, forum and myspace - we'll be lurking on the forum for a while yet I suspect
Inmiddels zijn 200 boeken verkocht en de pers is positief over Muziekreis door het Berlijn van toen en nu - van jazzhel tot technohemel.
Duits.de: ‘Ik vind dat Jonker … die klus heel goed geklaard heeft.’ ‘Het boek is over de gehele linie - algemene geschiedenis en muziekgeschiedenis - toegankelijk geschreven en bevat talrijke anekdotes.’ ‘Alles wat langs moet komen komt dan ook langs: de jazzgekte van de jaren '20, de Schlagers van de jaren '30 en '40, Rock'n Roll, Punk, Techno - alles.’
Festivalinfo.nl: '... geeft het boek een zeer goed en uitgebreid beeld van de muziekcultuur in Berlijn.'
FONK: 'Al met al is het werkje een leuke alternatieve reisgids voor wie binnenkort naar de Duitse hoofdstad gaat. Kort, krachtig en vlot opgepend.'
Trajectum: '... is vooral voor Berlijn- én muziekfans een must voor in de trein richting Berlin Hauptbahnhof (waar je na het lezen van de eerste pagina's meteen op wilt stappen).’
Het boek is t/m 31 juli met korting online te bestellen voor EUR 14,- op www.musikinberlin.com/boek.html. Daarna geldt de normale winkelprijs van EUR 15,95. En ook in de winkels gaat het hard. Velvet Music moest al bij bestellen, nadat ze uitverkocht waren. Bestel jouw exemplaar nu!
