About ZWARTE LIEFDE
Founded in Amsterdam in 2017 by Welly Ibrahim aka Welly Well, Zwarte Liefde is more than a party — it’s a movement. Born from a love of vinyl and black music, the collective has grown into a cultural force, hosting events at venues like Paradiso, Roest, Bret, Rapa Nui, Pacific Amsterdam, De Dakkas, ADAM&CO, and festivals including Mysteryland, Appelpop, Haarlem Vinyl Festival, and ADE.
With crates full of handpicked gems — heavy in weight and rich in soul — Zwarte Liefde DJs bring authenticity, warmth, and craft to every stage. Their mission? To spread love, knowledge, and happiness through vinyl.
