This friday night, Rebel Up curates the opening night of the Art Truc Troc festival at Bozar museum.
Art Truc Troc & Design is a yearly art festival under the motto: “Support contemporary ART, recycle your TRUC and feel free to make a TROC ”.
A large selection of artists will present works made from recycled materials or around the theme of recycling and of the great environmental challenge. Plus many workshops that raise awareness of environmental issues and recycling will also await you in the exhibition.
Rebel Up curates the opening party with DJ’s and an art expo around the dj booth by Brussels artists Yaya Recycle and Pierre Ow.
We invited our good friend, dj & producer Ion Din Anina from Sevilla, Andalucia, Spain. Ion din Anina is a multi-faceted DJ, producer and organiser of amazing global parties in Sevilla and around. Music of the past, present and future; from traditional global music to new electronic currents, spanning from Latin America to the Carpathians; generating a global sound where the rhythms of this and other planets have a place.

hello friends,
for the next 2 weeks from 30.01 until 11.02, Rebel Up SebCat will be touring with Malian singer Nahawa Doumbia and her acoustic band. Not as DJ, but managing the band on the road, taking them from venue to venue through Belgium (Antwerp, Gent, Leffinge), Netherlands (Leiden), Germany (Dusseldorf), France (Paris) and Switzerland (Baden, Geneve & Dudingen).
Since the 1970’s, she is one of the main female voices of the Malian Wassoulou style. Check our her recent reissue on the Awesome Tapes from Africa label, it’s pure bliss.
On the tour they will have merch for sale (CD’s and vinyls) at very fair prices.
See the tour dates & venues above, come and say hello!
On saturday 8 Feb, SebCat will spin global tunes in Geneva together with the Bongo Joe team at Chez Jean-Luc cabaret bar into the night. Drop by & swing 🙂
