Messenger of Dionysos · Mused by Apollo

In ancient times, Satyr was the horned and horny messenger of Eleusinian forest god Dionysos. He mesmerized the youth of nearby villages with the musical magic of his flute and made them dance till broad daylight. In our common present, the spirit of Satyr inhabits the body of a human boy.

Searching for a new way to spread the vibe of the forest, by Dionysian decree, Satyr switched to SL and CDJ instruments, which fit the job quite nicely. Apart from those, he employs the tools Apollo chose: a blank screen and virtual ink, to jot down all he likes to think - hence this his satellite here, orbiting Earth's blogosphere!

Een Echte Held Kiest Statiegeld



A message to all Dutch readers, who want to let their government know, they are opposed to the plans to reduce and perhaps abolish the container-deposit legislation:

Statiegeld?
Prima, moet blijven.
Mee eens? Even tekenen:

"Statiegeld: niet afschaffen, maar uitbreiden.

Statiegeld is een goedkope oplossing die goed is voor het milieu en een hoop ergernis voorkomt. Toch wilde het vorige kabinet het statiegeld op plastic flessen afschaffen. Door een sterke lobby van een aantal invloedrijke bedrijven kwam die afschaffing erg dichtbij. En nog steeds hangt de dreiging in de lucht: als we niet oppassen verdwijnt het statiegeld in 2015.

Door de nieuwe samenstelling van de Tweede Kamer, en de regering met minderheid in de Eerste Kamer, zijn de kaarten opnieuw geschud. Daarmee komt een stevige aanpak weer in zicht: invoering van statiegeld op kleine plastic flesjes. Dit voornemen is jaren blijven liggen, maar nog steeds de beste keuze. Driekwart van de Nederlanders is er dan ook voorstander van."

Driekwart van de Nederlanders moet dat wel aan de regering laten weten, anders wordt er voor vierkwart van de Nederlanders nagedacht en besloten.

freakuently unanswered questions


? what is Satyr

! in ancient times, Satyr roamed the Eleusinian forests as the horned and horny messenger of Dionysos - the god of ritual intoxication - who dispatched him to mesmerize the youth of nearby villages with the musical magic of his flute, and made them dance till broad daylight.

? where is Satyr

! in our recent past, Satyr reincarnated in the concrete jungle of Amsterdam as a DJ. At age ten, he recorded his first mix, displaying his love for early hip hop and electro, and soon his tapes were in high demand. After the Second Summer Of Love, he got turned on by new dimensions of synthetic sound and ventured into the realms of ambient, acid-house, techno and trance music, never looking back ever since.

? does he still play flute

! the Panflute has become an artefact in captivity, held safe and sound in the archeological archive of the Vatican. Yet, since them high-n-mighty early 1990s, Satyr became increasingly skilled as a player of the SL & CDJ instruments, spinning various styles of musica eclectronica, embracing a wide range of the bpm spectrum with remarkable sparkle.

Notoriously difficult to pigeonhole yet sharply focused on and specialized in ambient, chillout, psytrance & deep atmospheric techno; entertaining events for 5 to 50.000 people, by serving his spicy melange of clean cuts and dirty grooves, mixing it down and grinding it up from raw to smooth.

A few memorable events ecstasized by Satyr:
Amsterdam Dance Event (NL), Atmosphere (Berlin), Ballonnenfeest (NL), Burning Man (USA), Club A (Sao Paulo), Dance Valley (NL), Love & Magic (Oslo), Metsafestiwaal (Finland), Pan-O-Rama Festival (La Gomera), The Pi Club (Berlin), Q-Base (Germany), Senseblender Festival (Belgium), Universo Paralello (Bahia / Brazil), VooV Experience (Germany), and many more in Belgium, Brazil, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Greece, Lithuania, Norway, Portugal, Slovakia, Spain, USA & all over The Netherlands.*
