A party without borders! Mixed by DJ Socrates, live at De Tolhuistuin, Amsterdam.
There was already a comfortable, summery vibe in Amsterdam, past Wednesday. The concert by Greek party band Imam Baildi at the Tolhuistuin was perfectly attuned to that vibe. DJ Socrates played a warm-up set and for that was inspired by the eclectic ingredients of the band. Balkans and Latin vibes, surf psychedelia, rebetika, electro, swing, hip hop beats and pleasant wind sections.
