Julia Van Der Wees

Julia van der Wees knows what’s up. She also knows that community needs community. With NachtKalender, she transmits her beloved newsletter of the same name into a bimonthly broadcast, tracing Amsterdam’s circuit boards of musical scenes. She curates, connects, cross-pollinates: parties, sets, selections, all tuned by ear and instinct, wired into the bodies that keep the city alive. At the centre is a persistent attention to FLINTA+ artists, the ones who have always been pushing things forward. Guests drop in for live sets, interviews, recs, and nightlife intel. Going against algorithmic curation, Julia tells us where to be and what to listen to through warm words of many mouths, research, and presence.
