“I’m pretty concerned about all the corporations taking control of the whole world and we’re obviously the batteries that are powering them, Matrix-stylee.”
Geoffroy Mugwump started his DJing/ music-making career in the 90s, pioneering Belgium’s New Beat scene though these days is as likely to produce disco as house, techno or whatever other style catches his interest. Working as Mugwump with Kolombo (aka Olivier Grégoire) he’s also one of Belgium’s recognized international DJs, yet despite his own personal popularity admits he’s more than a little worried about 2012.
“The future looks awful,” he sighs, “With a mix of the theories developed in science fiction movies and futuristic books such as Rollerball, The Matrix and 1984, all turning into reality.” (Click here to read George Orwell’s 1984 in full: http://www.george-orwell.org/1984 )
“Besides the huge and constant crimes of the financial institutions, the food, information and pharmaceutical industries are frightening, the self-effacement of the statesmen in favor of the lobbies is a reality and the only exit looks like being in the entertainment business. It’s a sad world,” he says.
