Merci & dank u wel

A big thank you to Lore for this Flemish (Dutch) translation of our mmmission statement:

Music Muziek Musique is een maandelijkse club voor muziekliefhebbers. We willen zowel onderwijzen als entertainen (oftewel 'edutainment'), en daarom vermengen onschuldig plezier, bekend en onbekend. Uitdagend, eclectisch, maar altijd toegangkelijk, plant MMM een rondleiding doorheen muziekopnames uit de voorbije halve eeuw (en alles daarrond). Voor wie van slogans houdt: "From the Everlybrothers to the Chemical Brothers". Naast de gewone mix van onze dj's in residence, Jammer & The Phantom, zet MMM elke maand een bijzondere groep, platenlabel of muzikaal fenomeen in de kijker. Daarbij komen nog gast dj's en live acts, video's en verrassingen... Omdat we buiten de lijnen willen kleuren, vragen we de bezoekende dj's hun vertrouwde platen thuis te laten en muziek te spelen waarvan ze houden, maar die ze gewoonlijk niet draaien voor het grote publiek. Om te beginnen (laten we het 'Another side of' noemen), zal dj Sensu enkele van zijn favoriete seventies soul en disco tracks op de platendraaier leggen. En na het feest? Meer info over onze muzikale smaak op het MMM-blog.

And 'un grand merci' to Severine for the French version:

Music Muziek Musique est une soirée mensuelle pour les amoureux de la musique. Ayant pour but d'éduquer autant que divertir ( "edutain", comme dirait KRS-One - un jeu de mots entre "educate", éduquer et "entertain", divertir), nous brassons des plaisirs innocents (ou "non-coupables"), inconnus et connus. Provocateur, éclectique mais toujours accessible, MMM complote un itinéraire à travers le dernier demi-siècle de musique enregistrée (et au-delà). "Des Everly Brothers aux Chemical Brothers", si vous aimez les slogans. En plus du mix habituel de sons hyper-cool des DJs résidents DJ Jammer et The Phantom, MMM met chaque mois sous les projecteurs durant une heure un groupe, un label ou un phénomène musical particulier. Ajoutez à cela des DJs invités et des performances live, des séquences vidéo et plein de surprises, secouez le tout... et voilà! Dans la ligne de notre mission de "penser hors de la boîte", les DJs invités peuvent être priés de laisser leurs morceaux habituels à la maison et de passer des disques qu'ils adorent mais ne font pas tourner en public d'habitude. Pour donner le coup d'envoi de ce thème (appelons-le "De l'autre côté de..."), le merveilleux DJ Sensu apportera quelques-uns de morceaux favoris de disco et de soul des 70's à la soirée.

Rewind to the future

Music Muziek Musique is a monthly club for music lovers. Aiming to educate as well as entertain (to ‘edutain’ as KRS-One would put it), we mash-up pleasures innocent (or 'not guilty'), unknown and known. Challenging, eclectic, but always accessible, MMM plots a course around the last half-century of recorded music (and beyond). "From the Everly Brothers to the Chemical Brothers" if slogans are your thing. As well as its regular mix of hellacool sounds from resident DJs Jammer & The Phantom, every month MMM shines the spotlight for an hour on a particular band, record label or musical phenomenon. Add guest DJs and live acts, video footage and plenty of surprises, give it a shake...et voila!
As part of our mission to 'think outside la boite', guest DJs may be asked to leave their regular tracks at home and play records they love but don't usually spin in public. Kicking off this theme (let's call it 'Another side of...'), the wonderful DJ Sensu brings some of his favourite 70s soul and disco tracks to the party.
