The North Holland formation De Kift will exist for twelve and a half years in 2001. The band celebrates that so-called 'copper' anniversary with a 'copper' album. For a company like De Kift, this means that the CD box is actually made of shiny, copper-colored cardboard. Because of the beautiful packaging (they previously used a cigar box and a photo frame, among other things) you don't just put a
… CD from De Kift in your CD cabinet. No, these pieces of homework deserve a place of honor in your music collection. De Kift's music is also very special. It is difficult to describe it in a few words or sentences. Let's start with the statement that it is 'culturally correct' music. It is not ordinary pop or rock, although the setting with which they make music does reveal a rock (punk?) Past. In addition, contrary rhythms, out of time choirs and typical Dutch humpa music are used. The texts are partly self-written, while the work of national and foreign poets is also quoted. De Kift will probably never reach a wide audience with these experimental sounds, but fans of original Dutch music can only hope that this band will release a CD in a silver box in twelve and a half years.
