Posted on October 11, 2011 by Rebel Up

hello all,

this wednesday in Brussels, as part of Europalia Brasil, there is a special KK World *Brasil* night at Kultuurkaffee on the VUB university campus with our Brazilian friends DJ Tudo & Chico Correa.

Both have already played at our Amsterdam night last year and they’re really worth seeing, hearing and dancing to. As Rebel Up! dj’s we’re happy to be supporting them during the night with all sounds Brazilian and beyond.

Chico Correa & his Pocket Band (Paraiba)
Chico Correa’s one man band project brings the Afrobrazilian styles of samba and carimbó together in a swinging electronic live setting, aided by guitar and effects. Experimental tropicalia body music, let’s dance!

sat. 27th aug > Rebel Up! Soundclash @ OCCII, A’dam > Rebel Up! meets Bassculture crew

Posted on August 18, 2011 by Rebel Up

yeehawww.

time to kick off a new Rebel Up! Soundclash season at OCCII. From now on our parties will be once every 2 months instead of every month, just to keep it fresh and focused.

Coming saturday 27th, the Rebel Up! crew will meet the Bassculture crew from A’dam for a night of tropical bass, roots & funk, exotic folkpop and other vintage sounds to dance to. check the facebook event here.

Ofcourse our profits will go to a good charity as usual. With the heavy famine that is waging in the horn of Africa right now, we would like to raise emergency funds for the NGO SEED Samburu / Edukans. We also hope that everyone can donate whatever they can spare…it all helps!

A few weeks ago, the UN World Food programma decided to stop sending food reliefs to the tribal region of Central Sambura where the Samburu people live (a pastoral-nomadic tribe related to the Masai) and instead all food now goes to the refugee camps. It’s unfair that the UN turns their back on the Samburu and choose to let them starve. All the educational progress that has been made the past few years by NGO’s like Seed Samburu is on the point of being swooped away because without food, there is no education. Just 10 euro’s will already feed a Samburu child for a full month at school. This is the only daily meal they get as their own families are not able to feed them. Please give the Samburu kids a meal a day so that their life & education can continue!

If you are in Holland, you can also donate through this Edukans link or if you are elsewhere in the world, check the SEED Samburu site.

Saturday 13th of August: Rebel Up! DJ Riquetik @ Landjuweel, Ruigoord

Posted on August 12, 2011 by maarten

Allo!

Tomorrow our sand digging nomad selector Riquetik will play a special early bird wake-up set at the Landjuweel festival in Ruigoord, from 12:00 to 14:00 outside -or in case of bad weather inside- the church. This year’s Landjuweel has plenty sonic space dedicated to world music, with live performances from Antwerp Gypsy Ska Orchestra and Jungle By Night and many fine DJs including Zerkalo and Polyesta. It also serves as a ‘futurological congress’ in which the prospects for cultural free spaces in and around Amsterdam will be discussed. More info can be found in www.landjuweelfestival.nl

Hope to see you there!

Regardz,

Rebel Up! Crew
