Yes, yes it was.
Also, I bought a heady, heady piece of glass while we were over there, but it's in the post now and I don't expect to see it for a week or so.
Will definitely be posting pics of that once I get it though - it definitely felt like a sound investment.

Loads of pics, and a much more coherent version of my thoughts on the trip will probably come tomorrow.

Did you get to listen to any hardstyle/jumpstyle?
It's really huge in Holland. Most people have this misconception that Holland is about Trance, and nothing could be further from the truth; it's all about Jumpstyle and Hardstyle.
I'm hoping that if you went to any discos you were exposed to some harder soundz of Showtek, DJ Isaac, Technoboy, etc. |

I don't even know that I could identify either of those genres in a lineup. All I know is that the D&B played usually had very, very stripped back production and jazzy basslines. It was effectively the exact opposite of the majority of D&B I hear in the midwest.
Edit: We didn't, however, hear much if any trance - which makes sense to me because I don't particularly remember hearing much of it when I was there before outside of trendy nightspots and stores.
Loads of house, hip hop/trip hop, D&B, and classic American pop rock. |

The announcements at Schipol sound EXACTLY like the voiceover robot from Portal – and boy does it ever get to the point. The number of times I heard “John Smith, you are delaying your flight. Please head to terminal X or we will gladly offload your luggage so the flight may depart.”

Yeah I remember that from when I was over there :D
"The Enrichment Centre would like to remind you that the Weighted Companion Cube will never threaten to offload you and, in fact, will not be detected by security. In the event that the security guard speaks, the Enrichment Centre urges you to disregard his advice"
