Tonight’s selection is curated by the one and only Edith den Doosch, aka Tante Edith (Tante = Auntie, for the non-Dutch among you). If you don’t know her: buckle up.
Edith is a true veteran of Dutch radio: a fierce lover of soul, funk, disco, jazz-funk and everything in between. She started spinning in clubs way back in the early '80s, but quickly found her natural habitat: the airwaves. From dodgy pirate stations in Amsterdam to national radio, she ruled the mic with razor-sharp rhymes, naughty metaphors, and and slightly cheeky commentary, all before your mum even bought her first CD.
Fast forward to now: We crossed paths five years ago, talked a lot about music, and decided to team up this year: Edith picked the tunes, I mixed them.
So for the next hour, the radio is no longer a radio. It's a soulful time machine. Edith’s flying it, I’m somewhere in the back pressing buttons, and together we’re taking you on a wild trip through house oldies, soulful gems and unexpected detours.
So put your feet up, channel your inner 1980s club kid, blow the dust off your walkman, tighten your imaginary seatbelt... It’s about to get groovy.
