NL On 27 February 2015 it was once again time for Soca vs Dancehall's annual Jouvert Morning Edition.
Jouvert Morning
The Jouvert Morning edition is a bacchanal characterized by patrons coming out in their pyjamas and getting on bad. For those of you not familiar with "jouvert morning" it's a term that comes from the French jour ouvert which translates to the break of dawn. Many Caribbean islands celebrate this break of dawn during Carnival season by hitting the streets very early in the morning wearing their PJ's, bathrobes or any other crazy sexy outfit they feel comfortable in. With a large number of islanders here in Rotterdam it's no surprise that the Soca vs Dancehall organization holds a successful Jouvert Morning edition every year. This year was even a little too successful as the line outside was so long that the party sold out before everyone got in. With over 600 guests inside

A dancehall party with a mission
A dancehall party in Rotterdam isn't exactly a novelty, but HOELAHOEP does stand out. The first party that has such a clear cut concept and a mission to "bring the Jamaican party vibe to Rotterdam with the hottest dancehall tunes and tropical hospitality". During these cold winter nights the two young ladies who organize this party want to make the temperature rise and have a party with unequivocally good vibes, but did they succeed?
Club Twentysix
The venue was not too big, but had a major advantage for this party since there were two levels. Upstairs was a mix of reggae, kizomba and other Caribbean music and downstairs was strictly dancehall. When dancehall is all you love, this is music to your ears, no waiting for the DJ to be done catering to the hiphop lovers or the couples that wanna dance all cute to their kizomba, no...straight dancehall tunes downstairs.
