Minimatic kicked Amsterdam and got everybody dancing

I booked two gigs with French artist and DJ Minimatic here in Amsterdam and they kicked! His third single “Jazz à gogo” (a remix of the song by France Gall) on Tour Eiffel records (shown in pink here) was given a proper launch. By the time Minimatic was in Amsterdam – as he played Paris just before – he almost ran out of records!

It was a pleasure and I will make sure it happens again. For people who keep asking me what kind of music jerk is or was, you’ll have to come and see for yourselves!

A huge thanks to the new faces we saw and the warm welcome of the best club owners in town. A special thanks to Olivier the photographer (his work here) who took some great party pics and printed them out while you waited.
