Playlist GRUIS #25

Playlist Dwaalspoor
Boogje 1, Rotterdam What a great location! An underground concrete bunker/warehouse. Very industrial, dark and atmospheric (and cold). The number of visitors was reasonable considering the large amount of other parties this night. The mood & the music were alright. To be repeated!
Playlist Finsternis
Pleasance Cabaret Bar, Edinburgh (Scotland) Finsternis website I was invited as a guest DJ to play some tunes. The party was not very crowded, but I liked the atmosphere and there were some very nice people present. More an evening for chatting, drinking and listening than dancing.
Playlist GRUIS #24

Playlist The War of Roses
Nonomes, Amsterdam War of Roses website On a hot night eventually enough people showed up to make it a nice atmospheric party. Regular DJ Maurice was ill, so it was just Guillaume and me as guest behind the cd-players.
Playlist Deus \x/ Machina
K-sjot, Utrecht A fine second ‘Deus’ party with a nice response of the visitors. Unfortunately this was also the last party, due to personal circumstances of the organisator.
Playlist GRUIS #21
ACU, Utrecht GRUIS website Theme : Electronix An unusual cheerful musical menu for us, this theme party focusing on minimal electropop, synthwave, techno etc. less cheerful was the small number of visitors which showed up…
Playlist :Insignia:
Nighttown, Rotterdam Very nice location, good atmosphere, musically satisfying (if I may say so), but too few visitors. Nevertheless a special evening.

ACU, Utrecht GRUIS website The concert of Pia Fraus (who had deserved more visitors!) was good and intense.

Playlist Gotham V
Paradiso, Amsterdam Gotham website DJ Ziggy and I played some darkwave / medieval / neo-folk / industrial tunes in the smaller upper room, from 23:50-04:00, after La Floa Maldita. Despite numerous technical difficulties with the cd-players I quite enjoyed myself.
