Do you have any tips for Alumnus makes music? Let us know.
But first, some sad news. Appie Alberts (Chemistry 1971, PhD 1974), Doctor of rock ‘n’ roll, founder of AA & The Doctors and a music icon since the 1970s, has passed away. His records aren’t available on Spotify. But if you search further online, you’ll find, among other things, this 2016 concert on Countdown.
RALF POELMAN (MA Business Administration 2009) is a must-have in this episode.
In Ain Wondre Stad, he talks about his Groningen hit Noorderplantsoen.
Hiphop-researcher STEVEN GILBERS (Honours College 2014, Linguistics 2015, PhD 2021) puts Groningen on the map as a hip-hop city. Also as a musician. Read the interview with him here.
The Rapping Psychologist, DAISZ, aka Daisy Veenstra (MA Psychology 2019), uses her raps and songs to remove the taboo surrounding topics that are difficult for young people to discuss.
IZALINE CALISTER (Business Administration 1994) also does not shy away from sensitive topics in her brand-new show Rum and Coca-Cola about the Second World War on Curaçao.
Investigative journalist and musician MARTIN KUIPER (Physics 1998) offers a sneak preview of his forthcoming album with TIME.
New rap work with LAMPJE AAN, LAMPJE UIT by Alexander Moto, the pen name of
Thom Boonstra (MA Theology & Religious Studies 2024).
And, at the recent ESNS, she was given every opportunity to share her musical world with the audience: INGE VAN CALKAR (MA Psychology 2012) is, as she herself sings, Super Super Cool
in 2026.
This edition of Spotified features an old classic, but above all a lot
of new music by University of Groningen alumni.
