about

TRUMP YN MAKKUM is the title of the new album (CD/cassette/digital) by the Frisian-language punk legend It Dockumer Lokaeltsje. Just as on their previous albums from this and last century, Peter Sijbenga (bass, vcs, keys), Sytse J.van Essen (gtr) and Fritz de Jong (drms, vcs) report on that ghostly universe full of dead and undead Frisians that continues to beam in on them after almost forty years.

In addition to the usual stories about house painters and school teachers, TRUMP YN MAKKUM received alarmingly many messages about the war and the associated end of times. Even scarier is the astral assignment the men received to produce a musical about , something that people in the Frisian village of Makkum still don't like to talk about after all these years. What's done is done.

Trembling with fear, It Dockumer Lokaeltsje has incorporated all this into sixteen new songs, in a way that only they can: flawed, loving and completely psychodemic - whatever that means. The band members once again leaning with one foot in the musical grave dug for them by the punk and (no) wave from their childhood. The motorics of Wire in “Mieke hat un droan kocht”, the rhythm of DEVO and NoMeansNo in “Alle hat alles” and “Poddestuolleding”... while in “Frosketstromen” Adam & the Ants are not fully understood. Of course all songs are short and concise where possible and where not possible they take a little (or much) longer.

The fact that TRUMP YN MAKKUM is released not only on CD but also on audio cassette is pure coincidence. During her preliminary investigation at a shipyard in Makkum, It Dockumer Lokaeltsje found a large pile of unplayed gold cassette tapes in ditto boxes. The attached (and unpaid) invoice dated from 1989. Inquiries with diligent Makkumers again yielded little more than grumbling and a sullen look away. “Nim mar mei”, they said. (English translation: take it and bugger off)

released November 24, 2023

TRUMP YN MAKKUM was recorded by It Dockumer Lokaeltsje in March and April 2023 at the Katzwijm studio in Voorhout with Pieter Kloos and mixed with the same Pieter Kloos in April 2023 in The Void in Eindhoven, where he also completed the mastering. We thank Pieter very much! Also many thanks to Ineke and Floyd (Katzwijm), Guido (design cassette and CD) and Arnold (for his enthusiasm and trust) and to Makkum (for Arnold).

about

It Dockumer Lokaeltsje FR, Netherlands

"Een van de meest avontuurlijke is It Dockumer Lokaeltsje. Het trio maakt onnavolgbare avant-gardepunknummers met moordend tempo, die vaak niet langer dan een tot twee minuten duren."
KindaMuzik.nl: "Alle eenentwintig NL-Cult"

"It Dockumer Lokaeltsje leek bij tijd en wijle op een opgewekte The Birthday Party die de laatste trein moet halen.”
