ABOUT THIS SITE
Besides links to my webradios, this site is filled with lots of songs to try. They are in the narrow bar on the left.
As long as I like it: everything (no purist bullshit here, when it comes to specific genres...), but in practice there's an emphasis on sound instead of lyrics. Expect lots of funky drums, grooves, riffs, horns, bleeps, chords and exotic instruments.
And in general, I like a natural feel (also when it's in fact 100 % electronic) and a dynamic sound, without obvious loudness wars going on. But there will always be exceptions. And forced hipness will never be my cup of tea.
Simple: If a song is even more to me than 'very nice', really outstanding, it will be added to the site. Besides these tracks, there's a huge amount of other tracks I really like, just not enough to mention here.
ABOUT MYSELF
I'm born in 1981, Dutch and female. My personal music history, because it's relevant on a site like this:
I'm listening to pop music since 1990, starting with my fathers cds/lps, with pop/rock oldies, some classical music, some 70s compilations with music like Boney M and Luv, and some typical Dutch stuff like BZN; some people would call it corny. No modern pop/dance yet (the Dutch children act Kinderen Voor Kinderen not counted; officially, KVK part 11 was my first cd).
That phase started halfway 1991. I especially started to like dance music, and for the next one and a half decade to follow, I wouldn't listen much to golden oldies anymore.
Till 2000 most dance I listened to was extremely commercial; a huge 2 Unlimited obsession, during from 1992 till 1996, included.
The period after that, it was still commercial but in a more grown-up way. That era started about December 2000/January 2001, after discovering an internet station (Dancenet.fm) playing groovy tunes, like Daft Punk - One more time.
In the next couple of years to follow, my devotion to dance music (especially the 'serious' side of it) would reach it's peak. Discussing all the stuff on discussion boards, buying Hed Kandi cds, buying dance magazines and obsessive downloading included. I was standing right in front of the current trends.
I remember myself getting quite tired of everything, late 2004/early 2005.
After a long break from enjoying music in an intense way (a period of breathing space) and making the decision to take it more easy in the future, 2005-early 2008 turned out to be the transition period to now.
Besides dance music (in 2005 heavily influenced by the French station Underground FG, playing quite subtle kinds of dance), I started to like more and more other kinds of music, and the way of producing records got more important. I didn't complain much about things like 'overproduction' and 'loudness wars' before, but I started to notice it.
When it came to music released before my time, something not really getting my attention the years before, I started save, with exploring the 1988-1990 era: De La Soul, Soul II Soul and all the others. Because there seemed to be a certain click. And in 2006, I started to like music released before that, often many years before my birth. Yeah, the oldies were back...
In general my taste was becoming more laidback, and the amount of funky elements also increased. Early 2008, Studio Brussel's De Hop (presented by the founder of internet station Laidback Radio, and the same kind of music) was a huge influence.
Since Spring 2008, nothing has changed anymore (while the entire 2003-early 2008 era was VERY experimental; I can assure you I've not mentioned everything above). I'm still listening to dance music nowadays, just less intensively when compared to 1991-2005.

Yeah, I know. In my own time, I almost don’t listen to regular FM radio anymore, because of the sh*t they are playing nowadays (boring poprock/middle of the road and robotesque auto-tune crap).
With the exception of the Dutch station 8FM Brabant. That station sounds commercial in a nice way. Good format.
Will Young, Leona Lewis and Cheryl Tweedy managed to infect the rest of Europe (mainly Western and Northern), several others only got recognition on the British Isles. Good thing, but too bad the world is succumbing to the Bieberzation and Gagazation… :cry
Thank God we don’t hear much of Simon’s crap, here in The Netherlands.
I don’t know most of his productions, but I don’t WANNA know them (the stuff I already know sounds quite boring).
Excellent list which could be extended with pop acts made by Simon Cowell. It’s a shame that more and more countries are divided into listeners who pay attention to qualitative music and those who don’t care at all…
I’ve indeed forgotten to add the Boozywoozy track, but now you are mentioning it, I’m remembering that song very well. It’s really horrible, and it’s on the page now. Thanks for remembering me.
And I still remember Dj Pornys tracks a lot! I think they are quite stupid, but I don’t hate them enough to put them on this page. I’ve doubted about adding them (it was on the edge), but I see a little bit too much fun in all their stupidness.
Patrick Jumpen was OVER the edge, though.
Another track I haven’t added because of a certain fun factor is Michael Bolton’s How am I supposed to live without you. It’s meant as a very serious love song, but it turned out to be such an ‘over the top’ track I can’t take it seriously anymore…
I Agree with the biggest part of this list, except Lady Gaga (personal taste)
Did you forget One more Try from Bozzy Woozy and tracks like Dj Porny – Me So Horny ?
(I’m sorry if that was the reason).
Or did you just banned that tracks out of your mind
Thanks.
I agree with like 97 % of your list
.
Nice website
I just want to show both sides of my view on music on my website. Positive and negative.
There’s also a LOT of positivity on this site.
There’s too much hate in this world (L)
You’re completely right.
No fan of that guy called ‘Marco Borsato’, I assume. I don’t know him but it doesn’t sound bad at all.
I guess I have to be glad I can’t understand the lyrics.
Marco Borsato & Ali B (don’t know the last one too) looks like a deadly combination for you.
