This online space that I update ever so now again, allows me to share "stuff". Music is one of the many things, in life, I truly feel passionate about.
I've always had a certain taste in music. If it aint REAL HIP HOP (like J Dilla / The Roots / Common etc), Soul / Motown, Jazz, Big Band, Deephouse and good Rock / Alternative, then I simply wont give it a listen. I truly believe that the type of music (esp the lyrics) we listen to, says alot about who we are.
Good, quality music does something to me. When I use to party, the dancefloor was my sanctuary. I felt free. I didnt need to explain myself. I never needed to think. I could just BE. I let the music do the thinking.. I let music do the explaining.. I just understood, and moved.
Ofcourse, I'm older now. Having two kids, a full time job, being married and going through a bit of a "life change" I dont dance much anymore. I do however, still love listening to music and I get so a "guur" (kick / thrill) and break it down in the car while I'm driving or when home alone (hahaha).
Now a days, for fun, I take Sunday afternoon strolls, smoke a cigi and have a coffee with loved ones and occassionally...

The dancefloor is one place where I let go of all inhibitions and honestly dont care about anything else other than music and jolling.
