SMK156 | Sjoerd Fransman – The Next Troy Bolton

2,00

O-Town is blooming, musically. With even richer fayre than the overpriced clothes and flower shoppes (but the weekmenu afhalen at the great Nieuwe Wereld Chinese is still worth it, COVID-comadres). Musically we’ve been royally entertained this past twelvemonth, with Bob Pollard-style rants, piano romance, geetar blitzes and soul-boy expostulations. All these have set the seal for a weird sub-scene of Talent going mad behind the well-kept gardens of the Biggest Village in NL.

Now we have something that sounds like a backwoods Deejay Krush. Pots-and-pans music profiles characters that have escaped out of an X-Box: soul junk found in the discarded wrappers of totally ethical Maccy Dee take outs. Non-beats drag sitcoms out of the 1950s and make them squirm in the new digital world. There’s a rave under your bed that, like the cat that’s shat a big one in your pyjamas and is laying low, isn’t coming out. It’s confusing but gloriously so. Like Gong’s Daevid Allen once said, life’s too serious to be taken seriously.
