Stefan de Bruin van Bethlehem spog met \u2019n indrukwekkende langspeelplaat-versameling, en sy kennis oor musiek en sy versameling is verstommend. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk het nou so 1 000 langspeelplate wat ek oor die jare heen versamel het en beplan nie om te stop of af te skaal nie,\u201d s\u00ea hy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
De Bruyn (43) is in Carolina gebore en het in Bethlehem grootgeword en skoolgegaan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hy is die afgelope 12 jaar by die Eureka-apteek in die dorp werksaam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sy passie en liefde veral vir Afrikaanse musiek is hoofsaaklik hoe die versameling ontstaan het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Op sewejarige ouderdom het hy sy eerste langspeelplaat, van die sangpaar Randall en Koba Wicomb, self gekoop. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die misterieuse gemaskerde kitaarspeler bekend as die Kavalier se plaat het hy vir sy agtste verjaardag ontvang, en daarvandaan was die spreek\u00adwoordelike koe\u00ebl deur die kerk. Die musiekgogga, of eerder langspeelplaatgogga, het gebyt. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk het plate aangekoop en as geskenke ontvang totdat die langspeelplaat van die mark af verdwyn het, waarna ek natuurlik kassette en CD\u2019s aangekoop het,\u201d s\u00ea De Bruyn. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hy onthou in 1998, die jaar nadat hy matriek voltooi het, was daar \u2019n insetsel op televisie oor hoe langspeelplate op CD\u2019s uitgereik word. De Bruyn het besef dat langspeelplate heel moontlik baie skaars sou word en het daar en dan besluit om soveel moontlik daarvan te bekom. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hy het elke denkbare pandjieswinkel besoek op soek na langspeelplate, veral Afrikaanse plate, asook kortspelers \u2013 beter bekend as \u201cseven singles\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hy het selfs \u2019n advertensie in die koerant geplaas dat mense hom moet kontak indien hulle plate het wat hulle wil verkoop. So het hy deur aankope en skenkings sy hande op vele skatte gekry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In 2001 het De Bruyn \u2019n ou grammofoon aangeskaf en ook grammofoonplate begin versamel. Tussen sy soektogte na langspeelplate deur het sy paaie met verskeie musiekkunstenaars soos wyle Jurie Ferreira, Min Shaw, Al Debbo, Jimmy Stone en ander gekruis en het hegte vriendskapsbande ontstaan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sy reuse-versameling bestaan vandag uit Afrikaanse, klassiek, country, pop, Christelike musiek en verskeie ander genres. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
De Bruyn s\u00ea toe langspeelplate \u2019n paar jaar gelede weer mode geraak het, kon hy vir hom \u2019n behoorlike platespeler aanskaf waarop hy na sy gunsteling-plate kan luister. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hy is by verskillende langspeelplaat-versamelaarsgroepe op die sosiale media betrokke waar lede onder mekaar plate uitruil of verkoop. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDaar is nou eenmaal iets unieks aan \u2019n plaat, en die klank van \u2019n plaat is eg en nostalgies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDie kunswerke op die omslae, die hele interaksie met die musiek en plaat wanneer \u2019n mens dit speel, dit als is ervarings wat geen ander medium van musiek \u2019n mens kan bied nie.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Oor die vraag van wat sy gunsteling-plaat is, moet hy mooi dink. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDit is moeilik om te kies, maar ek reken dit is heel moontlik die Die singende beesboer<\/i> van Charles Jacobie\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hoewel hy erken hy het eintlik nie meer so baie plek om sy plate te b\u00eare nie, gaan dit hom beslis nie verhoed om nog te versamel nie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDalk klein \u2019n bietjie afskaal, maar nie ophou nie.\u201d <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
