Our party last Saturday was great, awesome, and then some. A big shout out (yes, we do shout outs here) to all the bands who put on kick-ass shows without exception, all the crew who helped us out (Temy, Tim, Marten, all the Oudenoorders!) and of course all the drunken bastards who showed up. Here’s some pictures to enjoy. All taken by the all mighty Anneke Hymmen.

Party people!
Yeah, Beep! Beep! music comin’ straight atcha
That’s me BB the Brain Supreme
And my man T-Rex
We’re kicking the flow we’re kickin’
And it goes a little somethin’ like this
Beep! Beep! Team back again check it top
Wreck it – let’s begin
Party people let me hear some noise
BB’s in the house jump jump and rejoice
There’s a party over here
a party over there
Wave your hands in the air
Shake the deriere
These three words mean you’re gettin’ busy
WHOOP! THERE IT IS
WHOOP! THERE IT IS

It’s common knowledge people love us. But have you ever asked yourself why?
Well, we did. First off, most people are cheap and we don’t charge shit for our tunes. So that’s a no brainer really. Second, we just look good. Don’t deny it, you do feel a little attracted to us, don’t cha? That’s all because of one fella known as The Designer a.k.a. De Haak a.k.a. Cpt. Hook a.k.a. The BeepBeep Host a.k.a. Hasja a.k.a. ‘That Guy Who Is Always Shouting In Your Face And Seems To Has This Weird Obsession With His Tongue By Showing It All The Time‘.

Well, anyway, this guy is in charge of all of our designwork and he’s damn good at it. That’s why dB’s will host an exposition of his work he made for Beep! Beep! You all are more than welcome to come and have a little glas of bubbles with us during the grand opening at this Saturday (5-12), 16:00, dB’s, CAB-Rondom 100, Utrecht. See ya there!

(and yeah..it’s free..cheapo)

here’s what db’s has to say about it:

Opening van alweer een expositie in dBs. Dit keer met werk van Sacha van den Haak, verantwoordelijk voor o.a. het prachtige artwork van de Beep! Beep! Back up the Truck concerten.Voor elk affiche dat hij maakt tekent hij zelf de typografie. De illustraties worden in 1 keer op papier gezet zonder bestaande fonts na te tekenen. Hierdoor ontstaan lettervormen die vaak enigszins vreemd lijken of gewoonweg niet kloppen. De foutjes die onstaan door deze methode worden gecultiveerd en maken deel uit van het ontwerp. Puur, spontaan en verwijzend naar elementen uit de ondergrondse vrije pers uit de jaren zestig/zeventig. Je bent van harte uitgenodigd om de opening bij te wonen, oh en ah te roepen en je te vergrijpen aan hapjes en drankjes.

While The Black Atlantic guys (‘n girl) are still showing their swagger all over Europe, we already have a clip ready for your enjoyment. Behold! The Black Atlantic performing the titelsong ‘Reverence for Fallen Trees’ followed by Windmill performing ‘Boarding Lounges’.
Eyes open? Ears open? Mouth closed? GO!!

Check out the vid we made of Castanets performing the astonishingly beautiful track ‘Sway’ at the Vette Analoge Shit, 02-10-2009, studio dB’s. And boy, the look that girl is giving at 1:50 is enough to make a man go insane. Good stuff.

Oh, and yeah. Safe to embed (CC BY-NC-SA baby).
