3CD and extensive 124-page book. "In 1998, The Complete Tape Music of Dick Raaijmakers was published by Stichting Donemus under the label NEAR (Dutch electro-acoustic repertoire). When The Complete Tape Music of Dick Raaijmakers ran out of print, Donemus was happy that Basta Music was interested to produce a second edition, and offered full co-operation. It fits in well with Basta's CD projects Popular Electronics: Early Dutch Electronic Music from Philips Research Laboratories 1956-1963 and STRP1: Reactions to the Music of Dick Raaijmakers. Moreover, Basta Music and NEAR/Donemus will continue the cooperation with other Dutch electroacoustic music CD projects in the future. This second edition (2006) has a new look. Only the English translations of the texts have been included, the original Dutch texts have been left out. The foreword and credits have been adapted. For the rest, however, nothing has changed: audio and texts have remained the same as in the first edition. The work list does not go beyond 1997, and we decided to leave it that way. However, Dick Raaijmakers made some musical-theatrical compositions after that time, such as Proefneming Met Een Tabakspijp (1998), De Weergave (2000), Konzert Für... (2000) and Ritual Moment (2005). He was awarded the Johan Wagenaarprijs 2004 for his entire oeuvre and received an honorary doctorate from the University of Leiden in 2005. In 2007, a monograph."
