Kolombo's blog
Turbo 061 // Kolombo
OK OK.. fuck, this onesheet is overdue. Tiga has been working hard finishing his album and I've been off-duty, on holiday in India the past two weeks. I'm in Schiphol airport now, drinking tea, about to take a shower in the 'crown lounge'. That's right, thanks to Turbo's success I achieved Skyteam and Star Alliance gold! Anyways, I badly wanted to freak out and stay in my psy-tropical paradise, but we have dance music that needs to be pressed onto vinyl and written about so that you can download it now for free... the saga continues:
Kolombo puts out a lot of records. Some of them I love, most of them are too housey and boring for me. His stuff always sounds great, but teeters dangerously on that line of commercial club music... reminding me of overly groomed men and cologne blowing in the smoke machine.
Turbo 044 // Compuphonic & Kolombo
As hard as it might be to believe, there was a time when the word TRANCE did NOT mean Dutch guys dressed in white wearing Oakleys..... it also didn't mean Israeli post-military dragon-stick wielding reefer addicts...... actually, there was a glorious era where trance was a VERB rather than a NOUN....... i'm talking about when you GOT in a trance, at lets say for example: the Golden Eagle in Munich in 81, in a white-tiled sauna-motif discotec, grooving to a 17 minute reel-to reel version of Knights in White satin on your 2nd bottle of poppers while some guy named "Wolfie" takes his modern ballet skills to the "next level".
