The Dutch have a can-do mentality, anything is possible. As long as you pay for it. It is very capitalist. Quite American in a way.

A scene can be created when people are coming together. Either to shop or to hang out.

In nightlife you can become a star, while in the daytime you can just be a nobody.

Most of this innovative new music doesn't make money so it's regarded as uninteresting for the business people and considered as "underground".

If you can make something genuine, then the ground is fertile for introducing something new. And that happened a few times in my life where I could sow the seeds and see something grow out of it.

Fun is the main thing. Because fun helps you transmit your message. You can only do that - transmit - when people are receptive.

Dance music is one of the biggest export products in the Dutch economy these days.
