We’ve been making some waves, or riding on the ones others have created, depending on your perspective. Well either way you look at: it Rebel Up! has been expanding: monthly evening in Amsterdam and Utrecht.  Shows planned in Brussels. Rebel Up is going international. And now even more as we have made a cameo apperance in a New York Times article.At the end of page one of the travel section Rebel Up! Soundclash is mentioned in relation to the Vechtclub:

“The club frequently features “soundclash” events that merge contrasting genres of music into one show: One recent event paired an Afro-funk band — which featured a group of acrobats — and a roster of Brazilian D.J.’s.”

Well that does sound like us! Here is the whole article if you care to read about the off beat tracks of Utrecht:
