About the author
For Overdose.am Freddie takes care of the the bi-weekly Mixtape Monday podcast.

Gijs van der Grinten aka Guy Gravier is the man behind the infamous Dolly Dagger nights at Disco Dolly. These are a showcase for Guy’s versatile taste in music in between the lines of house, disco, funk, bossanova, latin and jazz, all keeping the quality feelgood jazz feel upfront. It grew out to be the quality night to go to on Tuesdays in Amsterdam. Next to that he hosts his own Hotel Quartet nights at Club Up, a more house-orientated concept.

It all kickstarted for Guy when he got a residency at well visited De Nachtdivisie parties at Chicago Social Club, which brought him the experience to move on with a career as a DJ.

Play it loud and the weekend is suddenly not far away at all anymore.

The mixtape he made for us here is just perfect, cruising trough the verges of deep house, bossanova, jazz and funk, perfectly blended new tracks combined with solid old disco and house tracks. A true pleasure for the ear for those horrible Mondays. Play it loud and the weekend is suddenly not far away at all anymore. Catch Guy at 18hrs Festival, The Social Garden or Buiten Westen amongst his regular weekly club bookings this summer!
