Can you tell us more about this new summer anthem ? Is it a new Sex on the beach ?
Remy de Groot - « It is different then "Sex On The Beach" it is also a different time, that was a great anthem which showed T-Spoon to the world. This one is more like David Guetta, Bob Sinclar, in between these styles the new song will be».

Remy you have another project Spic N Span. Can you tell more about it ?
Remy de Groot - « Well, I already produced and wrote many tracks with my brother Joery. We have our own studio so it is very easy for us to go into the studio and make music. With us, we have Joris Bakker, a long time friend and deejay/producer aswell. He is very talented and is also the designer for our website and the website for Most Wanted International which will go online very soon».

We work on new T-Spoon material, it is very busy but we love to do it».

What do you think about music industry today and about the 90's revival ?
Remy de Groot - « It is totally different then in the past, in the 90’s illegal downloading was not a problem, nowadays it is a big issue and destroys the industry and makes it harder to get deals or budgets, which is a shame. I am very happy that there is such a big 90’s revival and Blog’s like yours, and this is just the beginning, merci! »

Why eurodance music was so huge in Europe and all over the world ?
Remy de Groot - « Probably because it was a new sound, lot’s of great vocals and a different vibe then today, now we experience a big crisis, maybe that is the reason want to go back and enjoy the feeling they had in the 90’s, 90’s Reloaded ;-) »

Will you be in I love the 90s (Hasselt) or Back to the 90s (Antwerpen) next year ?
Remy de Groot - « We truly hope so!! They only have to call me and we are there. »

Interview de Blondi

Blondi did many auditions throughout the years. Eventually all these auditions resulted in a audition in Germany. The producers that initiated the event where so impressed with her voice and talent that they decided to start a project under the name “Butterfly”. It became recipe for instant success, with modest hits as outcome in the European charts. After this happening Blondie’s career elevated in a fast paste. The impact of the project that was initially set up woke up other producers/artists like : Jens Kindervater, Jens O, Andy J. Powell, Chris Cute, Mangoon, Savon, Solar Patrol, 2Vibez, Minage Boyz, Christophe Chantzis, Erik Van Spouwen, Ian Van Dahl, Shalamon Baskin, and many others. Eventually Shalamon Baskin from the famous group T-spoon approached her in early 2007 and proposed her to be a part of the new T-spoon formation. In 2010, RawJawz has replaced Shalamon in T-spoon, and both artists are ready to rule the world of entertainment once more.
