Bongo Joe presents the release of
Zonder Pardon
, new album of Amsterdam based superstar
Don Melody Club
. Crazy covers, amazing composition driven by his iconic drum machine groove, this album is sweet candy for music lovers. Sung in his native Dutch (as are all his songs), "Tederheid" is a celebration of the beauty and power of mutual affection. With its uptempo drum machine rhythms, pulsating basslines, and funky melodies, the synths and vocals echo the work of
Talking Heads
and
Bryan Ferry
(Roxy Music), but the result is unmistakably Don Melody Club. The wonky "Koud Kwartier" evokes memories of the Nederwave sound of
Doe Maar
, a Dutch pop band that combined punk, ska, and reggae influences, first formed in 1978. Whilst many of his Dutch peers bypass Holland as a place for enlightenment, choosing to pivot and look far and wide for inspiration,
Madjid
felt drawn to the literary and musical tradition of the flatlands, following in the footsteps of both classic and lesser known Dutch troubadours such as
Ramses Shaffy
and
Ronald Langestraat
.
