About the author

Dancing around the world with funky socks and bananas, has a fetish for doors and hands, thinks glitters make live for fun, dreams big and lives by the quote: playing it safe is dangerous.

In less than two weeks it’s time to jump on the tables again. After two sold out editions, STRAF_WERK Festival is ready to make you dance for the third time in a row. You can hop on to five different stages, surrounded by a magical forest. Each stage has its own diverse programming and musical character. STRAF_WERK is not about one sound, but it chooses to host stages with multiple styles and still manages to feel as a whole.

J-style

So, that you can dance, is obvious and not really a surprise. Let’s talk about something else and put some creativity in our schedule. It appears the bookers favor DJs named with a J. This might not be something special, but those J’s really stood out when I checked out the line-up. This year you can jerk around with the double Js (not to be confused with double D) Jamie Jones and Job Jobse. Single Js are present as well, with Julian Alexander and Julio Bashmore on the bill. And we might even have the, yet unknown, winner of the talent contest. Top it off with some juice, maybe even a joint if that’s your thing, and you have the recipe for a jolly day.

Of course you’re totally free to choose another letter, but it’s simply way more fun to play around with the line-up if you ask me. Unfortunately the artists of my choice (letter) play at the same time as my heroes De Sluwe Vos and Henrick Schwarz, but maybe I can juggle myself to be at two places in one time.
