| Wish (live in Werf, 1993) A very rare performance of Wish. This was played live in the Werf studio for a Finnish TV documentary. It is very likley from mid-late 1993. | Werf Studio 1993 | Dennis 26.11.2006 | download (1888 kb) |
| Ting (Mixing Session) The last track of these early Ting recordings is different form the others. This time Paul Telman and Henk Hofstede are sitting behind the mixing desk and listening to the music, pushing buttons and switches, while commenting on certain sounds. | Werf, Amsterdam 1991 | Dennis Versteeg 23.01.2007 | download (4656 kb) |
| Ting Outtake ('The Room Upstairs') This is an unreleased song from the Ting period. It might be called The Room Upstairs, because that line starts off two of the verses. The song has great intense music. | Werf, Amsterdam 1991 | Dennis Versteeg 22.01.2007 | download (4489 kb) |
| Cars And Cars (Early Version) This version is quite different than on the CD. | Werf, Amsterdam 1991 | Dennis Versteeg 21.01.2007 | download (6445 kb) |
| Mrs. Sandman (Early Version#2) Another version of this b-side track. | Werf, Amsterdam 1991 | Dennis Versteeg 20.01.2007 | download (5401 kb) |
| Christine's World (Early Version) A very good early version of this song. | Werf, Amsterdam 1991 | Dennis Versteeg 19.01.2007 | download (5161 kb) |
| Ting (Early Version) Not too different from the released version. | Werf, Amsterdam 1991 | Dennis Versteeg 18.01.2007 | download (4097 kb) |
| Mrs. Sandman (Early Version#1) This is the first of two versions of this song played in the documentary. Another version of the song was released as a b-side on the Ting CD-Single. | Werf, Amsterdam 1991 | Dennis Versteeg 17.01.2007 | download (5905 kb) |
| Stones #2 This is a second demonstration of the 'Stones' percussion instruments. Tis time the stone is rubbed, producing a humming noise. It is unclear who is playing, but it\'s probably Fritz Hauser or Arthur Schneider. It's hard to tell from the documentary if any Nits member is playing here.. | Werf, Amsterdam 1991 | Dennis Versteeg 16.01.2007 | download (3542 kb) |
| Stones #1 The songs regularly contain interview parts over the music. This track is a short improvisation on the 'stones' percussion instruments that were used on the TING album. All Nits members are playing, as well as Swiss percussionist Fritz Hauser and sculptor Arthur Schneiter. | Werf, Amsterdam 1991 | Dennis Versteeg 15.01.2007 | download (1102 kb) |
| Fire In My Head (Early Version) In 1992 a documentary about the creation of the TING album awas broadcast in the Netherlands. This was filmed in the Werf studio in late 1991 and featured seveal early versions of songs played live in the studio. Several of these songs feature alternate lyrics or music. I've isolated 10 tracks from this documentary, which will be uploaded here. Sound quality is good, but not excellent. Fire In My Head features some alternative lyrics. | Werf, Amsterdam 1991 | Dennis Versteeg 14.01.2007 | download (4764 kb) |
| Steentjes (Soundtrack) This is music that was used with a short film by Henk made for Dutch TV. The short film showed various Nits and crew members playing around with little bricks ('Steentjes' in Dutch). It's a fun little movie and the music suits the images. It's not that fascinating to listen to by itself, but nice enough to place it here. | Werf? | Dennis Versteeg 14.12.2006 | download (2082 kb) |
| Marmor, Stein Und Eisen Bricht This is a cover of a German song by Dravi Deutscher. The band already played it at some concerts in the late '70s, but resurrected it for the German part of the New Flat tour. | West-Berlin 01.06.1981 | Dennis 02.10.2004 | download (4985 kb) |
| Cabins A full version of the opening track. | Winterswijk Eucalypta 10.05.1986 | Dennis 30.12.2004 | download (3944 kb) |
| Nits & Orchestra – Room #7 Moved By Her The Hjuvi project was once performed after the original recording and concert in 1992. This occurred in Switzerland at the end of the Ting Tour. A local orchestra from Winterthur played the whole composition with the Nits. The band played a regular concert after the orchestral part. There was again a planned performance of Hjuvi in 1994, but unfortunately that was cancelled at the last moment. | Winterthur 05.09.1993 | Dennis 21.11.2004 | download (3776 kb) |
| The Vermillion Pencil (early studio take) This is an early studio runthrough of The Vermillion Pencil. The source is a video recording. | Wisseloord sTudio, Hilversum | Dennis Versteeg 10.12.2006 | download (3775 kb) |
| Bike In Head (Loooong Version) With it's 9 minutes, this is probably the longest ever version of Bike In Head. The sound quality is rather poor, but it's such a special version it's worth putting it here. The song features a long instrumental section that was triggered by a triangle (!) solo by Rob. | Zutphen 25.04.1994 | Dennis Versteeg 13.12.2006 | download (11033 kb) |
| Empty Room This is one of the heaviest Nits songs on record and in the early tours it was even wilder live. For the Adieu Sweet Bahnhof Tour they rearranged the song somewhat and made it less guitar-based. The song still is pretty heavy, because the sequenced synthesizer sounds take over to drive the song along. | Zürich 27.11.1984 | Dennis 17.11.2004 | download (6050 kb) |
| One Eye Open An extremely rare live version of this Dutch Mountain track. I only know of this live version. It wasn't played at any of the In The Dutch Mountains Tour concerts I have heard and certainly never after that tour. It's great that the rare, probably one time only performance was documented on this recording. | Zürich 08.12.1987 | Dennis 25.09.2004 | download (4038 kb) |
| Yokohama Station This file is Yokohama Station, played live in Zürich on 06-10-94 at the Spirgarten. This song is based on the song 'Sukiyaki' by Kyu Sakamoto (1963). The Nits used the melody and replaced the Japanese lyrics by English ones. It might have been performed a few more times, but this is the only known recording. | Zürich 06.10.1994 | Dennis 15.09.2004 | download (4207 kb) |
