I’m looking forward to finally bring out my books, records etc again for the occasion. You can find me in the exhibition until half August, Thursday to Sunday 12:00 to 20:00. All info […]


New label: Mascarpone Discos

I happened to stumble on one of those countless independent artist-run labels, relying on Bandcamp, touring musicians and their own high standards, keeping up the good works out of pure love for music. In this case it’s José Guerrero from Valencia. Many of his physical releases are tapes, some of them are on vinyl. A […]


Feminist Festival at WORM coming up!

From 3 to 8 March we’ll have a week of celebrations around International Women’s Day (8 March). I am one of the curators and I strongly recommend you to check it out. Especially the Feminist Cult Fim Night and the concert by RE#SISTER. It’s completely on-line so you can join in wherever you are!


New in the shop: Grapefruits

The name was inspired by Yoko Ono’s book “Grapefruit” from 1964. Each issue has articles or interviews featuring individual artists. Straightforward, friendly design, well edited, nicely illustrated and complete with credits […]

HET KOMT GOED

To see this out on the pavement helps if the world, as it is today, feels too depressing. It’s Dutch and it means: “It will be alright”. We all have to look for new ways to survive. Like many small businesses, I will be bothering you more these days to highlight all the interesting literature, […]


Underbelly takes Positionen

A new title in the magazines section: Positionen – Texte zur aktuellen Musik. Specially for German speaking customers living outside of Germany, I will be dragging these around in the future to all serious music festivals that will have me. Warten Sie aber nicht darauf, bestellen Sie Positionen einfach hier! Eine schöne Zeitschrift.
