Tracks list

The label that ignited the Dutch post-punk scene!

Homogeneity be damned, these early Plurex tracks are a head-turning snapshot of
what was happening in the late ‘70s Netherlands underground! Includes an
interview with Plurex founders and all of the singles from 1978-‘80!

Some of the bands would never release another record, but for the label and many
of the artists there was yet more history to be made, not least of which was
Minny Pops’ ascendance to seminal status, and Plurex’s emergence
at the center of the envelope-pushing Dutch music scene that came to be known as
Ultra.

“It’s extreme, that’s what that word stands for,”
explains van Middendorp of the movement, “It stands for something
that’s clearly outspoken, and that’s what we tried to do.”
From the confrontational clang of their early punk releases to the electronic
art attacks that arrived soon after, Plurex was about saying something new,
loudly enough for all to hear.

When those records were made,” says van Middendorp, “I never
expected that we would have a conversation about them 40 years later if not
longer. At the time nobody was even thinking for one minute that this might
happen.... That so many years down the line there’s still people out
there that will discover this music. And the great thing [about The Plurex
Story] is that it’s also on a format that I’m a big fan of,
because who gives a shit about the stream? It’s nice to have a physical
album in your hands.”
