KANEpromoladies - Can You Handle Us?

On Wednesday Dinand wrote a little update on his facebook:

‘Ohhh Yeahh Baby... just finished the first single mix here in Manhattan NYC!!!! Jimmy Douglas ( http://www.discogs.com/artist/Jimmy+Douglass ) doesn't only know how to make Jay-Z and Justin sound great... He knows how to make them Dutchies dance 'till da breakadawn... Here's to this night... Sexy!!’

… so… sounds deliciously funkyyyyy that’s what we think! Also wanna read up on Dinands facebook, go and register on http://www.facebook.com

On the site of the Nationaal Pop Instituut we can read :

Dutch music magazine Musicmaker wants to find out which albums were the most influential for Dutch musicians. The KANEpromoladies hope one of the KANEalbum once was such an inspiration for young and upcoming bands/artists. The list will be featured in the December issue of the magazine and every musician has a say in the end result.

Beside one hundred famous Dutch artists who will be approached by the magazine, every other Dutch musician will be asked to send in his/her Top 10. By doing so Musicmaker want to create a demographic overview of those records which made Dutch pop scene what it is to this day.

To be clear: it’s not the ‘most beautiful records’ that’ll be chosen by the listeners or music lovers, but those albums that motivated them to become musician, that triggered them to start up their own band, influenced their musical style and are still on this day a source of inspiration to them. Maybe that was As long as you want this or Fearless

Dutch musicians can send in their Top 10 by using http://www.musicmaker.nl/top100/. Musicmakers Top 100 will be featured in the issue of Musicmaker 12, which will be in bookstores on the 20^th of December.

Yesterday Dinand already mentioned something about it during an interview on the show De Wereld Draait Door and today we can read up on some more information about the KANE kick-off to 2008 :

KANE will perform on the 1st of January, immediately after the turn of the year, on a pontoon on the Maas river, Rotterdam. The Rotterdam New Years Eve celebrations will be comparable to the impressive festivities in Sydney, Londen and New York where thousands wish each other happy New Year under skies lit with fireworks. The Erasmusbrug in Rotterdam will be the decor for the Dutch public.

The party will kick off on the 31th of December at 21u00on the Wilhelminadock. There will be 15.000 tickets on sale for this event. Minutes after the New Years Eve fireworks KANE will perform it’s brand new single from the new album that’ll be released that year. Next to Kane other artists will perform. The full line-up will be revealed on Friday the 16th of November. The next day ticket sales for this event start on http://www.nieuwjaarsnacht.nl tickets will cost 8 euro each.

 On the website Haags Pop Podium we can read up on the following:

Lead singer Dinand Woesthoff of the band Kane will be a guest on the television show  De Wereld Draait Door today. Woesthoff is invited on the show to talk on the recordings of the new Kane-album and to give more information about the planed Kane gig at De Kuip in Rotterdam. 

De Wereld Draait Door is a show made by VARA, and is on every weekday between 19u30 and 20u30 on channel Nederland 3. If you’re unable to watch the show tonight or if you want to review it online just click on http://www.dewerelddraaitdoor.vara.nl/terugkijken.php

Ominous black turned into a sexy pin-up with guitar, or to say:  kane.nl announced on Friday a KANE gig at the Rotterdam Kuip. At the same time the band launched their myspace: http://www.myspace.com/kaneofficial where in no time old and new fans gathered. 

Ticketsales for the gig will start this Saturday the 17th of November at 10 o’clock. At this moment KANE is in New York recording their new album, which will be in stores early 2008. On Saturday the 28th of June KANE will perform for the first time in almost two years on the fabulous stage of De Kuip. It will be the only gig of that size in Holland that year.

After the mega-gigs at the Amsterdam ArenA, the Almere beach and at the Malieveld in The Hague, De Rotterdam Kuip is the long awaited new venue. KANE at De Kuip. On Saturday the 28th of June it’s gonna happen. ‘If Paradiso can be referred to as ‘the’ rock temple of the Netherlands, then you can address De Kuip in Rotterdam as ‘the’ rock stadium. You can sense that when you’re there. She’s different to all others, she’s absolutely gorgeous. Now, in sight of KANE album nr. 4, declaring we’ll play at that venue, is fantastic. It’s gonna be an amazing year. 2008 is ours.’ - Dinand Woesthoff . ‘Playing a gig at De Kuip has something magical about it and for KANE it’ll be the biggest milestone until now’. - Dennis van Leeuwen

TICKETSALE STARTS ON SATURDAY THE 17TH OF NOVEMBER via Ticketservice, VVV offices, Postal offices, Free Record Shops, GWK’s and the known ticket sale spots, 0900-3001250 (45cpm), www.ticketservice.nl

On Tuesday evening the bands website www.kane.nl faded to black.

In an update early September Dinand mentioned: “Keep your eyes on this site, because soon we’ll disappear ourselves haha”. Well…mission accomplished…clearly. 

Things are happening behind the scenes… mindblowing stuff… you’ll keep an eye on it with us? Because they’ll return… with a bang!

..TICK, TOCK, YOU DON'T STOP...

 ...tick, tick, tick, time never stops… This week it ticks in London, then we’ll be on NYC time… we’re going to record… it’s official...

This week we’ll be working in London for a few days along side the successful producer YOUTH ( http://www.youth.me.uk/ ) Try Googling him, you’ll find some nice stuff. Then it’s right back to upstate New York to record the first KANE single of our fourth album. We’ll do that at 'THE CLUBHOUSE'. Just click http://www.clubhouseinc.com/ 

This is turning out to be a bit of a Google session. Check Gail Ann Dorsey, Zack Alford & Neil Dorfsman as well and you’ll get a pretty good idea where we’re at. So a few day at this location and we’re off again, to producer SCOTT JACOBI (www.scojac.com) in Manhattan.

And that leaves us with finding the perfect link to mix the whole shebang... 

I’ll keep ya informed…we’ll call or something…

Adio!!!!!!
