fri 17 June, Rebel Up! dj’s @ Antitapas *Ciliegione* Night at The Egg, Anderlecht, Bxl

This friday 17th,  Rebel Up! will be spinning at the big Antitapas *cherry night* party in The Egg (an old empty factory!) in Anderlecht, just behind the South/Midi station.

We’ll be playing in the main hall, which is a giant hangar which can fit *a lot* people and seriously expected to fill up, as the Antitapas parties always draw over 1000 people, crazy stuff! From midnight to 5 am we’ll be playing all sorts *ratatouille* global sounds from every warm and tropical corner of the world with circus acts and an orchestra inbetween.  In the other room there will be a cumbia band and balkan  and cumbia dj’s like our good friend Quilombo to make people jump up.

It surely promises to be a huge ass party! -to talk in donkey spheres-.

See the Antitapas website for more info. Be early for the free food though.  Hope to see you there!

Johar!  as they say hello/goodbye in Jharkhand.
