    Nasmak

    Dutch experimental new wave band from Nuenen, Netherlands active from 1978 to 1984. They started out in 1978 singing in their native language, under the name Nasmaak. Shortly after they changed it to Nasmak (because no more Dutch songs were played).

    From 1980 onwards, all their records were released on the Amsterdam based Plurex label, owned by Wally van Middendorp (Minny Pops). Their album 4our Clicks (1982) was highly praised, not just for the music but also the cover artwork, designed by Rob van Middendorp. In 2008 this album reached, rightly so, the 14th place in the Top 50 all-time best Nederpop charts.
    Joop van Brakel left the band in 1983. In 1984 they performed at the first edition of the TegenTonen Festival in the Paradiso but shortly after the band dissolved.
    Then Henk, Toon and Theo and friends founded a recording studio in Eindhoven (undefined, until 1991).

    All members of Nasmak, including De Groot, have since worked together in partial formations. As a collective they created [url=https://www.discogs.com/artist/14407520]Nasmak PM (PlusMinus)[/url] in 2018.
    PM mainly stands for PlusMinus, to indicate that the line-up is variable and it is not just about the old Nasmak: members have left, or are sometimes unavailable, and there is also a desire to be able to work with guests.
    [url=https://www.discogs.com/artist/14407520]Nasmak PM[/url] started 40 years after the founding of Nasmak by Joop, Henk and Toon.

    In 1981 and 1982 a series of experimental cassettes appeared on Plurex called Indecent Exposure and one of these featured the original version of (My) Void, which can be found on the De Koer cassette.
