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.

We talked about a couple of subjects; of course Rinskje Koelewijn asked me about my new album; I am telling that the musicians are a mix of long time friends and favourite musicians who also became friends and why I came to Holland (study music at the famous institute). Then she asked me about where I go out. Most people go out in the weekend when I have to perform myself (for the people who go out). So I go out on sunday and monday. The places I do recommend to everyone are: The clubnight of Wicked Jazz Sounds every Sunday and every Monday the jazz session at NeL, Amstelveld. She also asked me about a concert recommendation, I chose Maceo Parker (last thursday in Doornrosje, Nijmegen). And shopping tips? All my favourite record shops, amongst them: Demon Fuzz, Jazzcenter, Sounds, 33/45, Waxwell, Backbeat and Concerto. I told her about the difference in sound of vinyl compared to cd.
