I will start from now on a new category called ‘just for your eyes’ which are just fotos, images, or any visual stuff. The thing is to not comment it at all and wait for your reactions.

If you have made fotos during the World Music Day, you can send them to me and I will update the show. If you are sending a foto or a drawing, please tell me, where it was, who made it and a title (or so). Send JPGs (450px x 450px max) to julakim (at) ar2com (dot) de.

There are pictures from Matongé, Brussels, Belgium and Darmstadt, Germany.

Fête de la Musique in Matongé, Brussels.
Matongé is a sort of black ghetto in Brussels. The district is in the
centre of the city, and you can walk through without problem, you just
feel like in Africa for 300 meters. The name comes from a district in
Kinshasa, the capital of the Democratic Repuplic of Congo, a former
belgian colony.
This year, the first district party took place at the same time as “la
fête de la musique”. Here a few impressions.

Fête de la Musique in Darmstadt, Germany
It was very small and familiar and actually I was surprised to have a World Musique Day in this little town (200.000 inhabitants). But the location is quite interesting. It is the Jugendstil exhibition area from the beginning of the XX. century called Mathildenhöhe.

If you continued from two weeks ago My Proposition: A RadioProductionCentre, you do fine. If you dropped by, please regard that this sequence started with favela. If you are lost, start again with the beginning called favela. For subscribers I have attached three diagrams as a covers.

A diagram on RadioOnAir and AnaLog with some more explanations can be found on these sites.

sorry, but my voice is not presentable. Have you again next week, when I will continue with the RPC. But I will benefit from the comment I got this sunday.

Fête de la Musique
21st of June

The French Minister of Culture decided in 1982 to make a Day for Music. It became the 21st of June. Now it already spread into more than 50 countries.

If there is still nothing going on in your city go out on the 21st of June and play some music in the street. Animate passers-by to make some noise to wake up the good character of your city. If you are feeling unsure visit us on facebook.
The spirit of the ‘fête’ is written down here.

A short definition you can find on wiki, but the French wiki is way better.
