Luka releases new single ‘Something Somewhere’ today. The song paints a feeling of the mystical glare that drives another. It’s the glow of inspiration that keeps us moving. It got started on a writing-trip with some friends, among musicians Joep Le Blanc (ZES) and Guido Nederstigt (Darlyn). After that she collaborated on the song with her team members Joost Wesseling (Luwten) and Wannnes Salomé (Klangstof, Nana Adjoa).

De Toegift release new single 'Alles is gemaakt' today. The dreamy, melancholic blanket that hangs over De Toegift makes way for a smoke screen. For a while the lyrics don't give shape to memories or stories about the past. Without mercy things are set on edge; No one is spared. The music supports this feeling of constant threat with the addition of guest musicians Carmela Michailidis (flute) and Hester Julia Voddé (violin). With it they released this video that accompanies the mysterious tone of the song. Which is fully made by the band itself.

Broeder Dieleman release new single 'De Koeter' today. 'De Koeter’ is the follow up of previous released ‘De Eerste Knecht’ and together they form a musical postcard about a farm in West Zeeuws Flanders, early 20th century. The song is inspired by a story of Leo Bootsgezel from 1923. De Koeter, or Cow-keeper, was a child who grazes the cows along the dikes. Koeters were taken out of school to earn money for the family. They were the workhorse of the farm, had to do all kinds of chores and were often treated like a scourge.

De Toegift releases their second EP ‘Nooit, misschien’ today! The EP contains the previous released singles ‘De woonwijk’ and ‘Soms’, and new song ‘Meer dan ooit’. ‘Nooit, misschien’ philosophizes about the different ways in which time moves. Apparent contradictions connect three songs about finding hope, losing hope and questioning the final.
