A very special night next week in Brussels!
05.02: BOZAR Electronic Series: Abul Mogard + Bendik Giske

BOZAR ELECTRONIC is kicking off the year with a stunning program by inviting the mysterious and incredible Abul Mogard performing for the first time in Belgium for an AV show with Marja de Sanctis.

"Abul Mogard is an artwork in itself – a fully realized conceptual project, lush in complex layers, elegant in its simplicity, and fertile in intent.” (Headphone Commute).

A personal crush and one of the most powerful ambient act i've heard in the past few years. Couldn't recommend you more to book a seat!

Highly recommended tonight in Brussels!
free entrance >> Modern Sound Korea - KEDA

KEDA is a duo formed by Mathias Delplanque and E-Jeoung-ju, they confront the ancestral sounds of the gômoungo to textures, rhythms and electronic treatments. Beyond the meeting of two instrumental practices separated by centuries of history, their creation stands out as an original form, draw up the side of the blues, African and Jamaican music, ambient, noise art,.. Hypnotic, warm, traveling, alternately dancing and meditative, their music is an imaginary folk, a unique and hybrid adventure.

Tomorrow in Brussels, Jasmine Guffond is performing in the lovely AB Salon. By converting largely invisible surveillance technology into sound, she explores the practical and theoretical potential of ‘thinking through sound’ and the capacity to reveal phenomena outside of the visibly perceptible. Her music draws influences from experimental electronica, drone, techno and avant-garde. Highly recommended!

Event : Jasmine Guffond | Ancienne Belgique / free entrance

Highly recommended as a beautiful start for your weekend : Letal Ataraxia - Bunai Carus at E²/Sterput, Brussels.

Young and very promising duo from South of France, the Bunai Carus packed their bags full of cables & machines to Brussels last year. Their music is mostly based on field recordings, samples and lots of self generated sounds, blended all together with a strong attachment to their visual ideas. The result is a mixture of their own sense of contemporary electronic music and the reflection of past impressions - heavily influenced and inspired by the early millennium electronica artists like Autechre, Vladislav Delay, Aleksi Perälä,..

Hi guys, hope you enjoy your summertime!

For those who are looking for a nice experience this Friday, I highly recommend you to go to this Karsten Pflum presents SLEEP Concert, a 9h Sleeping concert hosted by Caoutchou in the great Bar Bricolage in Ghent.

The Danish artist Karsten Pflum has been making his own unique brand of electronica for many years. Filtering in elements of drum’n'bass, electro, and even ambient, Pflum creates music you are familiar with, yet have never heard before too.

Since 2014 Pflum has started performing all night sleep concerts, where the audience sleep or rest in comfortable beds, and absorb the ambient and drone soundscapes created live all through the night.

All info on their event. Enjoy!

Hi dear music lovers,
Behind the little fingers running this page is also an event organiser via ParadigmCollective, created last year in Brussels. Knowing that you are particularly fervent of experimental electronic music, it's a good time to present you one of our next events that will happen the 13th of May :
>> ParadigmCollective afterparty - Closing Night of NBT Festival

We’ve had Carte Blanche for the afterparty/closing night of Nuits du Beau Tas 2017 (28/4 to 13/5) : Rhizome program in the splendid Halles St Géry. As the first part is dedicated to John Cage, we're hosting 4 performances of artists for which experimentation remains at the heart of their creative process. With WSR who recently released two stunning gems on Sam Kerridge's label Contort - huge coup de coeur ● Mathias Delplanque for an improvisation electronic session with his multiple controllers and instruments ● The dark cinematic universe of 6SISS w/ deep vibrations, noise and rhythmic passages ● The duo Bunai Carus for a special electronica performance with John Cage samples // + Dj’s Atone & Tzii (electro/techno sets) to tickle your dancing shoes.
