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.

I got to talk to basketball greats Jos Kuipers and Henk Pieterse. Inspiring to speak to these former professionals, you still see the basketball fire in their eyes. Kuipers is now working at Sportservice Noord-Brabant, an organisation to get people into sports. Pieterse has a company called Ball-Contact and gives basketball clinics and teaches about bullying.Basketball always makes me think..I am tall myself (1,83m/6 feet) and I started to play basketball in school but soon the saxophone took over. What a beautiful game (and the tall and often handsome people playing it)! Then, saxophone came along and that was the end of basketball because I wouldn't risk to get my hands or arms injured.. Another interesting factor of becoming a musician was going to concerts, hang out and getting to meet my idols. Plus, although I had a big mouth I was a bit to squeamish for sport. Discipline would come much later.. Choices! I am glad with my choice but I still have a soft spot for basketball.Thanks Jan Vis and Dames Draaien Door for the booking.
