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.

It was wonderful.People were also really into it.. They kept on dancing for almost 3 hours!Every visitor of this festival had to have a negatice pcr test and be a hotel guest. The Estate is a large park with botanical garden, museum, luxurious hotels and lots of wine...Thank you, Dear Jazz & Wine Festival for having us, it was a pleasure!DJ Maestro, Susanne Alt, David Menabde (Eastern Promotions)And thanks to Bureau45 for this great booking!Then... I went on a trip to Tbilisi. I thought, why use my first flight ticket in 2 years on a trip of 48 hours...So I spent a few days in Georgia's capital.View from FunicularTrinity ChurchA renovated street downtownInteresting architectureMore interesting architecture, in the old city wallContemporary art in one of the many viaductsI got to meet my old friends Steffi and Kristo alias Kristina (ofcourse we are all still super young) who I met many years ago at Cafe Alto. They used to work as bartenders and I performed there - sometimes weekly - with my jazz band. Very nice to see each other again after someting like 12 years. Steffi works as a physio therapist and Kristo has her own restaurant, Ezo! Last evening at restaurant Ezo with a friend of Steffi, Steffi and Kristo (on the right).
