Here’s a bit of history about me: I moved to The Netherlands just a little over three years ago, arriving with a small bag full of clothes, a box of dog-eared photos and a few bucks in my pocket to ensure I could get up to some trouble for a month or two. Then I would have to get serious.

In my pursuit of mischief and good times, one of the very first things I did was go to Mystery Land, the largest and longest running dance music festival in The Netherlands. It was an awesome experience and I promised myself that I would go again. This year I was lucky enough to be invited as a guest by the good folks at ID&T, and together with the crew from Goed Bezig, I partied long into the night.

The best way to describe the festival is to think of it like a living breathing city with different tribes occupying different districts, each celebrating their own culture and inviting anyone walking by to get involved. After spending the whole day there I feel like I only tapped into a third of what was going on, which means another visit to the festival is needed, something I’m not complaining about.

Thanks again to the folks at ID&T for hooking up the Dolly Rogers crew.
