Hello Family and Friends,

we did a 10 minute documentary interviewing some interesting activists
in Amsterdam's dance music scene. Some of the people that make this town tick.
We've spoke to Antal and Marco from Rush Hour, Olaf from Trouw, Orpheu from Red light
Radio, Phil & Daan from Wicked Jazz Sounds and had the pleasure of stealing some thoughts
from the Mighty San Proper.

This will be very interesting for you if you are interested in the scene here and also shine some
light on why I have moved here.

Please support us by telling your best friend or people who might be interested in this.
Since this is a non-commercial project, exposure is all we can hope for Smile

If you have a newsletter, blog or facebock, if you like it, share it!

Thank you very much,

love

Marcel

Was planning on checking out Trouw but its closed during August. Can you recommend any other nights or parties worth checking out? Smile

Don't think the redlightrecords shop is in there. A must go to when you're there. Run by Abel, Tako and Jamie.

And nice one Marcel. Good to see you grow like that.

I don't understand the question? Most of the tracks are from Amsterdam, our editor sneaked in the Moodyman track and considering the close ties between the cities it made sense. Since KDJ seems to be here all the time, not only for DJing but also for leisure.

You could say it reflects that Amsterdam is a Melting Pot that doesn't try to only reflect in itself but like San Proper says it always goes out to bring back something..
