In addition to Mixcloud and Hearthis, all mixes are also available as podcasts on Deezer and iTunes.It was in 2015 when I had my first official dj gig and since 2016 I started to perform regularly. This took place in Amsterdam's Skyybar, Floor17 and The Harbourclub Zuid... bit by bit, other places like Momo and W Amsterdam followed, leading to club bookings as a dj and festival bookings with Venus Tunes Live in the Netherlands and abroad. All of this in addition to my normal life as a musician. I love dj'ing as it adds another facet to my musicianship.Listen to all editions of the Venus Tunes Sessions where you like; choose your platform: Venus Tunes Sessions is a monthly guest mix by Susanne Alt on Freak31, aired every first Sunday of the month at 1900h.

Also I missed the whole Go-Go funk from the 70's and 80's and only learned about it a little longer than 10 years ago.Having listened to this album many times, what caught my eye when writiing these lines: This album is produced by Stephan Meyner from Germany, who also produced some important records by Geri Allen, Maceo Parker, Fred Wesley and Pee Wee Ellis, along with other artists.Wikipedia about Brown's legacy: He is called the Godfather of Go-Go and was considered a local legend in Washington, D.C. Darryl Brooks, a local promoter who worked with Chuck Brown during his career, stated, He was a symbol of D.C. manhood, back in the day, because of the authority that he spoke with. He just spoke from a perspective that black men could understand. D.C. Mayor Vincent Gray said Brown was Go-go's creator and, arguably, its most legendary artist.Read my Vinyl Wednesday from april 2017 about Chuck Brown - Bustin' Loose
