Well I think this is dutch slang. I understand its meaning to be to move to the beat of the music. Like when you hear all the boom boom from the base, etc. Otherwise it can literally mean to bounce on the floor or other meanings to chop something and I don't think that is what this particular sentence pertains to. ;)

Maybe Claud can fill us in more or give a better translation?

Hey Mazdog,
Ik will hakkeh = Ik wil gakken. (w's are pronounced like we pronounce v's) Ik is pronounced as we would pronounce ick (y).
gakken --- to cackle (which sounds like hakkeh)

If I'm pronouncing it correctly, I found a word that the word gakken means to cackle.

FYI: In Dutch every single g is pronounced as we would pronounce an h in English. So, if you hear a word that seems to begin with an h, it could be pronounced as an h. G and H are very similarly pronounced in Dutch. They sound the same to my English speaking ears.

Also, the n on the end of the infinitve form of the verb (gakken) is not pronounced in the Amsterdam area, and I think a lot of other parts of the country. Some Dutch people pronounce the final n on the end of infinitives, but the people singing this song do not pronounce it. That’s why it sounds like eh to you at the end of the word.

:shock: Dutch Techno? That's the really heavy banging stuff isn't it? That stuff must mix in really well within a smoking environment.

Perhaps there will be some sort of language translator out there on the world wide web that could help you.

I used to listen to dance/techno but the last album of that type that I bought was Music For The Jilted Generation by The Prodigy (round about 1994) and I've matured since then. I find that I listen to older styles of music as I get older.

I could still give MFTJG a whirl though. Was a superb album and then they got crazy with all the Firestarter shit and I just gave up totally.

yep i love the really really hard stuff, the stuff that even the dutch raver guys consider hard.
Hardcore, gabber, breakcore, noise etc. The Dutch are masters of hardcore, hence the dutch label "Masters of Hardcore" :lol:

I'm glad I wasn't around any places that were playing that kind of stuff when I was in Amsterdam because I find that music to be insane and when I get into certain conditions (stoned) I honestly come close to pissing myself laughing at it.

The same applies to most of the heavy metal bands around these days with the fast drums and the distorted guitars and vocals. Absolutely hillarious.

You'll have to be more descriptive on the last word. 'Ik wil' means 'I want' though.

Hakken?

Post by SteveVS »

Gek is a common Dutch word for crazy. Maybe ik wil gekken??? Does that make sense? Or Ik wil gek't?

I hope it doesn´t mean the same like: "ick will neuke.." what means: "I want to fuck!"

You always hear this in Techno-Clubs?

I know this is a bit of Threadromancy....

I have an album called 'Hardcore Terror Volume One The Dutch Masters'

On this album is a track with this chant on it. The track is called 'Ik Wil Hakke!' and is by 'Body Lotion'

I believe this is the word we are trying to find. I believe it means I want to chop, literally, but I think the word itself has undertaken a slang meaning in the Hardcore scene and relavant to dancing or something. Not entirely sure.
