The yearly Chouette festival invited Rebel Up to curate their afterparty at Illegaal, to turn it into a global clubbing night with eclectic sounds from allover.
with special guests Pulsar Collective from Berlin, who will play a live set with Turkish psychedelic music, oriental house, melodic house and vocals, with members from Turkey, Germany and Poland. Their 1st ever show in Bxl & Belgium!

This Friday 29 nov, a special concert night & afterparty @ Beursschouwburg!
Headliner of the night is Congolese band Kon’gongolo Kiniata from Kinshasa, masterful upcyclers who produce electro-Congolese rumba rock: a very own funky and punky flavour of experimental afro-pop, using an impressive arsenal of homemade percussion and string instruments from scrap metal. Their lyrics in Lingala pay homage to the working class, rebel against the war in Congo and advocate hope and perseverance for the youth of Kinshasa.
Before them, Brussels african group AKAR Collectif. A musical and visual collaboration between Shama Bongo (singer, producer & manager), Sarah Carlier (singer-songwriter, musician, music producer), Rokia Bamba (DJ, sound designer) and BenRichard (VJ, DJ, sound designer).
The evening is hosted by Rebel Up, SebCat will play warmup tunes & afterparty bangers together with Brussels based Italian-Congolese dj Laryssa Kim.
Another season of ππ₯π¨ππππ₯ ππ₯π₯ππ πππ₯ kicks off! With a warm night of outernational bass sounds from 3 different continents hosted by Rebel Up, with international guests from Peru, La Reunion and Brussels. Between electro Maloya, Mβbass, Cumbia bass and Latinx club music and beyond….. + live liquid visuals!
π¨πππππππ πΊπππ (π³π πΉππππππ) Producer Aleksand Saya draws his inspiration from the cultural wealth of his native island of La Reunion in the Indian Ocean. He experiments and transforms the traditional elements of Maloya by merging them with hip-hop and electro sounds, creating his trademark, which he calls M’Bass. He invites listeners to dive into a singular sound universe, where the vibrations of Maloya blend with deep bass and catchy syncopated beats and a captivating ability to bring souls together, while breaking down boundaries. https://soundcloud.com/aleksandsaya
