ABOUT PETE PHILLY & PERQUISITE:

Amsterdam is a cultural magnet. Attracting people for all sorts of reasons. And some of them never leave. With the people who settled here from Africa, South America and Asia, Amsterdam is boosting with multi cultural energy. The energy you find in cities like Barcelona, London, Marseille, Berlin, and San Francisco. An international vibe, where everyone finds a way to communicate with each other. Languages and cultures melt into something new, far away from the old 'nation-state'. The exponent of that vibe is Pete Philly. Born in the Caribbean, he came to The Netherlands at a young age. Grew up in an international environment, it was no wonder he was breathing, dreaming and eventually started rhyming in English. Searching for the right musical direction, he coincidentally ran into Perquisite: an architecture student, who was spending all of his spare time as a producer experimenting with everything ranging from classical music to, jazz, broken beats and hip hop, and at the same time studying the cello and running his own hip hop label: Unexpected Records. Pete Philly and Perquisite found each other in their quest to widen the boundaries of the hip hop genre, which is dominated by meaningless bling videos, lyrics about boobs and guns, and music deprived from any form of creativity. Pete and Perq phrased their mission "bringing analog sound back in times of plastic." They went back to the meaning and inspiration of the past and generated something new and fresh. It took them nearly 2 years of hard work to perfectionize the sound they could call their own. The result was the 17-tracker 'Mindstate' - which saw the light of day in the Spring of 2005.

Amsterdam, summer 2007. The 2-year route brought the duo from a small upper room 'Mindstate' release party, via gigs in Cape Town, France, Spain, Germany, Scandinavia, Los Angeles, performing with the likes of Kanye West, Saïan Supa Crew and James Brown (RIP), to festivals and sold out shows all over The Netherlands. With a suitcase full of new encounters, touring experiences, and new musical inspiration the band traveled to a little house in the North of France to write, and worked night and day in their Amsterdam studio to finish their second full length. The result they named 'Mystery Repeats'. The boundaries of hip hop are being tested even further. Added to their sound of jazz, classical and soul, are influences from all over the globe: flamenco, samba, reggae and afro beat. 'Mystery Repeats' is a sonic document boosting with diversity and ambition. Destined to reveal itself anywhere, anytime.

Musik in Berlin





Jul 6 2009 11:54 AM

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!
