soundcloud

so i'm using soundcloud a little bit to expose my music to those who'd like to hear it. http://www.soundcloud.com/rutgergrotius That's all for now.

The planet still exists

And so am I, after a long offline time I'm using this blog again, for all the people that do not read these pages (and for those who do, maybe even more for those).

and a bit more! (hey mom, I'm on TV)

So yeah, on september 19th my hearless music (or 'visual music' as I call it now) aired on TV! pretty AWESOME.
The local news channel read the paper (where I was in) and wanted to make an item of it. Hell Yeah I wanted to do it haha!
So my TV debut can be watched here: "visual music project on TV", and also a somewhat extended interview on the radio can be found there aswell.

And you know whats cool, on the same day that it was broadcasted I got interviewed by national TV, HA! I don't know when it's out there but I'm actually kinda proud what my small statement has reached already. Will it stop here (I think so) or will it gain more interest from diffirent types of media (I hope so!).

They noticed me a bit





This photo is in the local newspaper of today (september 14th 2011), aswell as a short interview with me. I'm quite excited actually cause though it only was a local paper I already got a call from the local news channel!
The article can also be found on the web: Almere Deze Week

One very important thought

"Now that the show is over and we have jointly exercised our constitutional rights, we would like to leave you with one very important thought, sometime in the future you may have the oppurtunity to serve as a juror in a censorship case or a so called obscenity case. it would be wise to remember that the same people who would stop you from listening to boards of canada may be back next year to complain about a book or even a tv program. if you could be told what you can see or read then it follows that you could be told what to see or think. defend your constitutionally protected rights, no one else will do it for you. thank you. "
