Local Rockstars: Bas Dobbelaer’s atmospheric sound
His dad's into electronic music, so Bas Dobbelaer grew up hearing Sandrien and John Digweed. He and his brother always competed by wanting to find the coolest track. It was Bas' dad who took him to his first techno party when he was only 17 years old. Nuno Dos Santos and Patrice Bäumel were playing in Paradiso and he even called beforehand to make sure his underage son would get inside. This is the moment Bas knew that this was it. (..more)

Local Rockstars: Tim Hoeben about the tension between house and disco
Tim Hoeben is everywhere. No, seriously. Everywhere. He was a resident at Trouw and Studio 80 (may they both rest in peace) and still is at Disco Dolly.

Your last chance to dance at Studio 80
Studio 80 was one of the first clubs I ever danced so I'll always have a weak spot for the intimate dark and cozy club. Like everyone else, I was taken off guard by the sad news that Stutterheim sold Studio 80. The club will close its doors as we know it in January. When the horrible news was announced the club only had one month left for a worthy goodbye, which is extremely short, but they did me proud. Time flies because it's already time for your last chance to dance at Studio 80. And dance we will. Like there's no tomorrow! (..more)
Worth Your Dam Hangover: Christmas and New Year’s Eve
It's the most wonderful time of the year. But if I'm completely honest I don't really like the forced coziness of the holidays.

So here’s where you party people should go to this Christmans and New Years, to start the new year with a hangover. (..more)

Local Rockstars: Steffen Morrison wants to make you sweat
Steffen Morrison is one of those artists who takes your breath away whenever they start singing. His voice drips soul and has a vibrato and warm rawness that reminds me of Otis Redding, Seal or John Legend. The fact that he's Dutch makes me a little proud, because his voice is timeless and it sounds as if he's an old soul. He keeps the 'old sounds' alive with a new twist that'll seduce music connoisseurs like me and you. (..more)
