What better way to start the new year than by drinking a glass of fine red wine, while listening to the crackling sounds of the greatest democracy on the planet collapsing under its own weight and tuning in to an intermediate edition of Het Schimmengebied on Radio Tonka?
Honestly, after sounding the horns of doom for years, I am not sure whether to just embrace the moment and shout “told you so” with a careful selection of nihilist industrial noise, or just tune out of the moment and play soothing ambient music while pretending everything is just fine, like most people have been doing all this time.
Whatever it will be, be sure not to miss out, and turn on your radio receivers at 92.0 FM in The Hague, or www.radiotonka.org elsewhere on this collapsing earth, between 23.00 and 0.00 CET.
