Dutch songs/different accents

This is only a fraction of all the Dutch accents that exist, but I hope you like it either way. I tried to find the least terrible songs, but some are still cringy. Others, however, are quite nice. Enjoy :)

Order: Accent - Artist - Song name

Fries - De kast - In nije dei

Drents -  Skik - Op fietse

Achterhoeks - Normaal - Oerend hard

Amsterdams - Ciske de rat (Danny de Munk) - Ik voel me zo verdomd alleen

Amsterdams - André Hazes - Bloed, zweet en tranen

Haags - Harrie Jekker - Oh oh Den Haag

Brabants - Guus Meeuwis - Brabant

Brabants - Gerard van Maasakkers - As ge ooit

Twents/Surinaams - Jeffrey Spalburg - Hengelo (This is actually a song kinda making fun of the Twents accent, but the parts where they’re impersonating it are pretty damn accurate)

Rotterdams - Amazing stroopwafels - Rotterdam (This sounds only slightly Rotterdams, but the other songs were a no go)

Please add other songs if you’d like ^^

Shoutout to my introductory linguistics course for showing me how to swear in 16th century Dutch

and teaching me how to casually greet someone in the The Hague dialect

This can not be coincidence…. On the left there is the NUL exhibition catalogue for the Peeters, Armando, Schoonhoven exhibition and on the right there is the Al Held catalogue from 1966 , designed by Wim Crouwel for the Held exhibition at the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam. The white fond and the strong circle part on the back must have impressed Crouwel, since he used almost exactly the same layout as the ZERO/NUL catalogue which was published 2 years earlier for the Haags Gemeentemuseum exhibition.

http://www.ftn-books.com has both catalogues available and of course the special stitched multiple by Henk Peeters which was published shortly before his death.
