We have invited 2 local Brussels global bass dj’s & producers > Gan Gah & Dovecake!

Gan Gah (MR / Bxl)
Fed by traditional « Gnawa » and Berber rythms ever since he was born in the suburbs of Agadir, Morocco, young DJ and producer Gan Gah is now based in Brussels.This accomplished musician, who has been performing for many years as a beatmaker under various pseudonyms, knows how to shake a dancefloor with bewitching beats. Offering a cunning combination of club music and traditional North-African music/rythms/melodies, his first EP “Souktronics” is a declaration of love to his Moroccan roots and to modern electronic music which is about to make a lot of noise on worldwide dancefloors. Moroccan Bass, you said?

Dovecake (US / Bxl)
Intergalactic Body Trance Provider who washed up in Brussels a few years ago, but nomadic nonetheless and spends most of his time in different continents. Equal dj as expressive dancer, bounded to celestial ancestral interconnectivity. Adventures in Rhythm & Bass to make your heart melt and hips shake! Afro bounce bass vibes all in directions possible.

+ resident Rebel Up! SebCat
The bounciest global bass beats and whatnot

Come bounce with us!

nightshop afrohouse Hello folks! this friday an awesome Nightshop Afrohouse party that we helped setting up with our friend Ivan Diaz (Weagogo agency).

with special guests DJ Satelite from Luanda, Angola, and afrohouse master Boddhi Satva from Central African Republic, who is replacing Congolese DJ Spilulu who sadly did not get his visa from the European authorities.

DJ Satelite is the one of the original masters of the kuduro beat and has gotten deep into afrohouse over the last few years when the style started booming in Angola. He will serve frenetic futurist beats and make you go wild. see this interview or check this playlist. Boddhi Satva, originator of the international afrohouse scene and plays a style that he likes to call ‘Ancestral Soul’, expect to go into deep house territory with a real African pulse from this secret Brussels resident. American Bxl resident Dovecake is a dancer & urban bass dj all the same, opening us with a wild set of afrobass! to close off the night, Rebel Up! dj’s Sebcat & LeBlanc will clash with Max le Daron of Lowup. A heavy African mix of Angolan afrohouse & kuduro, Ghanaian afrobeats, South African kwaito and afrobass from the Lusophone diaspora. Just 5€ in, come early enough as we expect a full house! Don’t say we didn’t warn you… all info on Recyclart site of FB event.
