A celebration of Dutch band the Nits EP 29
Judging by song titles from “The House” and “House on House” to “The House of Jacob”, houses very always important to the Nits. Their own was a square brick building, The Werf or “De Werf” in Sloterdijk in the western part of Amsterdam. They worked here for 40 years, from 1982 until the day it burned down. It was a creative jungle, with a jumble of instruments, flight cases, stage props and lamps and an archive of sounds, posters and articles about the band.
In this episode, members Henk Hofstede, Rob Kloet and Robert Jan Stips and soundman Paul Telman and light engineer Tom Telman recount the events and the aftermath – and which creative way they found to deal with this catastrophe.
On top of this, Rob Kloet opens up his notebooks about music and philosophical ideas that influence his playing. Robert Jan Stips takes us into the world of sounds and instruments, from grand pianos to synthesizers.
