Hi all,
Thanks to the many of you that showed up at last months edition. Also big thank you to Christiaan and Jeroen of Nohmada, Friso and all the other goodhearted yet unnmamed people that helped us in making the party as it happened.
pretty please ps: peek below for some pics of last month!
This month’s Rebel Up! Soundclash will be in aid of the cyclone catastrophy in Myanmar. As overheard on Belgian news that donations from the West have been far below an average level of aid, we at Rebel Up! want to raise immediate awareness for the current conditions in Myanmar! Our eye has fallen on Myanmar Charity Group as the charity for the night.
The goal that MCG have in their Cyclone Recovery project is to give out family packs on which a family of 5 can live on for 1 month. We hope our night can buy a lot of those family packs, so please spread the word and check their website http://www.myanmarcharitygroup.org/
What MCG hqs to say about on which level they stand within the country and its network:
‘MCG already has established local networks inside Burma to effectively distribute the funds to the cyclone victims and we will not run into obstacles like other international NGOs are facing. Dr. Yin Min Thein, Han Thi Oo, and May Thu Wint who are Myanmar Charity Group’s representatives in Burma, will be organizing and distributing the necessary items.’
About musical matters….
This saturday we will have a special guest from Poland who will bring his Vega Selecta sound of old skool reggae with buddhist trance rituals and easter european folk and so on. Good! The usual trio of Rebel Up dj’s will also play their tricks and picks, plus again special VJ guests providing visual counterpoints to the soundwave soup to be absorbed by the eyes. Quite so.
We hope to see you Saturday!

Hi all,
This month’s Rebel Up! Soundclash marks the return of one of the clan’s grandaddies, who’ll bring along loads of new sounds such as russian hiphop, muslim accordeon folk, african merenge and nepali crazy pop. Then, we’ll also have the Nohmada chaps from Ghent playing along with us (www.nohmada.com), and special VJ guests Inti & Alejandra providing visual counterpoint to the soundwave soup.
Just like last month, profit & donations go to the Globalteer charity, assisting the schooling of orphans in Cambodia .. more info about this project will again be available on-site during the party @ the occii!
We hope to see you on Saturday!

Humanity has been waiting too long for our return. Thus, we shall rise from the dead and bring the power and rebellion up to another level. This eleventh edition comprises our finest and sexiest DJs (see shaded picture attached) in the country. Yes, and I mean it, in the whole country. Indeed some of the best breed are fed with bio-seeds and folkish food from remote places, even one of those musical beasts is out of France, that’s how remote it can be.
The 29th of March, this fine cattle will meet its crowd at the traditional OCCII stable where we’ll milk the surrounding with Silk Roads music, where we’ll bash morosity with a touch of playgroundbreaking-homemade-vyniltortillas-hipswailing-moveyourass sound. We’ve harvested in secret spots the cream of the crop, the freshest and sometimes oldschoolest riddims from really all around the world (we forgot last time the Canaries Islands we swear to do better this time). Anyway, the program (which never really existed) for the next edition bears some undefined quantity of surprises but, above all, the main motto of our party is to have fun in a rather sportive fashion, meaning if you sit too long in a corner, two French Poodles always come barking at you and tear your pants down. A warned Rebelupper is a warm RebelHoppa. Get the point for the others …
