This was one of my best nights from last year. Played for an amazing  crowd at the Hernan Cattaneo & Nick Warren All Day Long ADE event at Westerunie Amsterdam. A night I will never forget.

Alex O'Rion - Live At Westerunie [closing set Hernan Nick All Day Long]

Although my gig started with heavy rainfall, the sky cleared after a short while and the sun came out! A perfect way to celebrate 5 May; Liberation Day. A day where we celebrate Freedom, often taken for granted,  but for a lot of people not so normal.

Thanks to Het Vrije Westen festival en @epika-events

Pop...
Because you dance to disco and you don’t like rock! 

German DJ Carsten Klein is based in Amsterdam, where he is one of the resident DJs at PRIK, presenting his Popsnob night once a month. His very first set was at Berlin’s famous Berghain Kantine – rather randomly, but, mostly, very excitingly.

Spanning five decades of electronic pop, anything is possible – from ABC to DAF, Electribe 101 to Front 242, Kraftwerk to Kylie, New Order to Nu Shooz, Richard X to Stacey Q, Róisín to Robyn, Tiga to Towa Tei… and, of course, from East End boys to West End girls.

In pop, there is no guilt in pleasure!
