Fuck dEUS

Apparently Belgian-dance-producer Regi Penxten (Milk Inc) shouted Fuck dEUS in his reality-soap on Jim TV. Pinxten had just played a club in Chicago and was disappointed in the lack of interest of the Belgian press. He explains in Humo (and in Flair too) that he has no problem at all with dEUS, but he wanted to scream out his frustration about the Belgian press ignoring his succes outside Belgium.

Interview

Here's an small audio-interview with Tom in Leuven last week. Tom talks about art and the That's Blue-compilation.

100 op 1

You can start voting for the best Belgian song ever on the Radio 1-website. Last year dEUS had 5 songs in the 100 op 1-list. Since there are 10 dEUS-songs on the longlist this year, it's possible they score even better this year.
