I've beeen organising parties for some years now, but it only gets harder and harder every year. The dutch party-people are kind of 'spoiled' by all the massive line-ups...people only wanna see bigger and bigger names and are not interested in the locals. But I think that that is gonna change pretty soon...anyway thats what I hope will happen!

i don't think germany has this problem?

Something's happening people!!
I think some guys are getting the message...

DJ Roog complained about the media in his interview for BG magazine....

And now ID&T magazine is making an indept article about what's really the opinion of the Dutch technoscene. :)

great :)

Last night was the biggest indoor festival in Europe in Amsterdam:
- What party am i talking about?
- Was there any indication from fro instance the UK Dance media about this?

:twisted:

Shockers?
Awakenings?

I think there was a bit of an overkill of parties in Holland around about the same time as we hit harder times financially.

The v.a.t. rates for clubs changed from 6% to 19%
this effected the smaller clubs the most and they are having a difficult time now..

Recordlabels are having a hard time at the moment as most dutch distributors wont take on new labels.

Big events and a healthy late 90's economy pushed the rates way up for dj's and the euro gave most a chance for a nice income improvement. So smaller clubs can't afford most of them

we no proffesional techno magazines here

it was INNERCITY

Dunno doesn't seem like this in London - the small parties are still rocking - ups and downs but still a vibrant scene.

You may just need to do what you are doing as a bigger collective representing the whole local scene in a specific genre and put on good parties - rather than lots of independant promoters.

Maybe all your local artists have been seen too many times by too few people that are into the scene around you. People may just want to see somebody else.

Are the 'big DJs' playing a different style that is just more popular that the sound you are playing?
