Bandhistory

1975-1977
-Hot Stuff-

(my very first band)
(songwriter/composer: Patrick van der Hoeven)
(style: blues-rock)

At first I was growing into a solo performer at a very young age, talking about elementary school period, until in 1975, when I got to highschool, I’d found the right musicians to accompany me and my songs, since it was not easy to find musicians of my own age who were up to perform on stage with a rock band this young already. I still remember my rhythm guitarist Henry Mouwen, who was very much known by everyone as “Pink Floyd”, because of his absolute ultimate fascination for this legendary band.

We were real passionate fanatics, playing the guitar every day right after school to check out some new chords and writing new songs. Of course Chuck Berry was my very first guitar hero, as he was to many of us guitarists. After 3 years my family was moving to Germany, where I had to start all over again, finding musicians to line-up a new band.

-Patrick van der Hoeven & Max Joosten-

(songwriter/composer: Patrick van der Hoeven)
(style: fusion)

Right from the start as we were introduced to each other by my dear cousin Gregor Mecklenfeld, we were very much inspired to play music with each other.
We started recording once to twice weekly. Every studio day I had a new song to record, which got us a nice repertoire. It had some influences of jazz, rock, funk, pop.
The two of us did have a disco-single recording: “Ain’t that hard to believe”.
Although the song was already being played as a demo in a lot of discothèques in the Netherlands and Germany, the single recording has never been released unfortunately.
After a short while we were very determined to line up the band, called:

"Statistical Descision"

(songwriter/composer: George van Olffen, Patrick van der Hoeven)
(style: pop-rock)

After Bob van Niekerk had won the Veronica Television music-award
the first cd-single: "Face to Face" (label:EMI) was being released immediately.
Shortly afterwards the band was lined-up, calling "The Blame".
After two more 'single' recordings the band started touring in the Netherlands.
It really was a highlight to us when the band got invited to turn up at the after-party of Tina Turner, where we were supposed to have a jam with the Tina Turner band, since she did a live concert in Rotterdam.

Unfortunately Bob van Niekerk died much too young at the age of 24,
just one day before his birthday, because of a fatal car accident.
I'll always remember Bob as one of the greatest singers I have ever met.

At first, "Jimix" started off as a trio. During the recordings in 2007 the band got complete with two new members: Matthew Jefferies "the noise professor" on analog synths, coming from London (UK), and the Russian keyboardplayer Art Brouwer.

In 2008 the EP debut-single: "I'm not looking for love" was launched in Germany with overwhelming succes, followed by the first EPK-album, consisting of 4 great songs: "Message", "My turn", "Not looking for love" and "Talk to me".
