INFO


After taking a deep dive into the dusty cr ates with Belgian & Dutch music, Harde Smart now unearths a smooth selection of jazzy, funky & soulful gems from their collected vinyl stash. All the music you hear, was recorded and produced during the 1970's, in either Flanders (the Dutch -speaking part of Belgium) or Holland. Besides exquisite grooves and hard-poundi ng drums, the selected songs also have Dutch lyrics in common, making this a rat her unique way to approach and compile lyric-driven Flemish and Dutch music from back in the days. Record collectors all over this language area seem to have ne glected a considerable part of their own musical legacy for a few decades, while firmly searching for rare grooves and breaks in the bins with more exotic music .

Yet nothing is so certain as the unexpected. 'Flemish & Dutch groov es from the 70's' is the first 'Dutch' compilation album to uncover the genuine, Afro-American funk and soul vibe. A sound that - albeit infrequently - influen ced the work of some of the popular and less popular singers and musicians in th is small part of the world in the 70's. Although influences undoubtedly also der ived from the French chanson and rock music from that era. This 21-track album s mashes all musical predictability and takes you on a weird and nostalgic trip; o ffering a revised set of 'essential homegrown classics' for the local listener, yet also being very exciting to the ears of the non-Dutch speaking audience.
