Mokum Soul @ The Hideaway
Join Mokum Soul at the Hard Rock Hotel's Mata Hideaway every 3rd Friday of the month for a rare and deep soul night with a difference.
Future dates are:
Friday 17th February
Friday 17th March
Friday 21st April

Sweet Soul, Ballads and B-sides
Most soul nights held in bars and clubs focus on the dance floor and play uptempo music. However, there is another tradition of club events where the music is slow, sweet, moody and deep. Amsterdam soul DJ collective Mokum Soul present a monthly night at the Mata Hideaway in the Hard Rock Hotel Amsterdam on Leidseplein that focuses on the heart rather than the dance floor.
Mokum Soul are Taco Fett of Amsterdam's premier record shop Waxwell; Hans Diepstraten and Harry van Vliet from longstanding radio show Fingerpoppin’ Soul, and Mark Fisher, expat resident of Amsterdam and respected soul collector. Together they present vinyl-only evenings of sweet soul, ballads and b-sides in an intimate and stylish environment.
Come and see them – and special guest DJs – from 8pm till 12pm at the Hard Rock Hotel Amsterdam.
Venue: Hard Rock Hotel Amsterdam
Leidsekade 97, 1017 PN

Time: 8pm-11pm
Entry: free

Café Batavia
From 2015 to 2019, Northern Soul Amsterdam's home was Café Batavia (Gebouw Batavia), a friendly bar housed in a listed art deco building dating to 1920. Café Batavia stands opposite Amsterdam Centraal Station and is just a few doors away from the impressive Basilica of St Nicholas, which dominates the station's skyline. Café Batavia has an excellent selection of bottled, draught beers and other beverages and serves great food. It's well worth checking out.
