ZeeZout Festival

ZEEZOUT FESTIVAL

Amsterdam, Netherlands

“Totally unknown but super cool Afrikaans moped will throw Awesome Tapes From Africa on the dance floor - it becomes an Ethiopian proto-funk pearl. Good choice.”

There may be something lost in the Google Translate of this review, but in many ways, nothing's lost at all.
Zeezout (it means sea salt) is like that cool DJ friend who cruises up to your house party at 3am, throws on some afrobeat/house hybrid she’s been working on, eats a plate of cheese, then jets off into the night.

Goddam ZeeZout, you crazy bitch.
It’s held on Blijburg city beach in Amsterdam (of course), and the line up includes Motor City Drum Ensemble, Optimo and Awesome Tapes From Africa.
Yep, everyone looks like a Dutch DJ. But the friendly, welcoming kind of Dutch DJ that won’t stare at you when you dance so hard you accidentally punch yourself in the temple. #dontjudgeme

Tickets are only €36 and it’s on the 8th of September 2018.
