hey folks,

After 5 years of existence, Rebel Up! has decided to invade downtown Den Haag. this friday we will have our first Rebel Up! Soundclash night in Agga @ café De Vinger. your Rebel Up! dj´s Palm M & Sebcat will be joined by Dubcovsky (Kako Da Ne/Casa Babilon). The city will rise this time to the global sound and fury of 3 stubborn DJs :

Sebcat (Be/NL) – The man has travelled and brought back loads of music from the outside world. He’ll introduce tribal and transcendental, Hi and Lo-fi tunes to your body n ears. anything goes from slow Greek Rebetika to swinging Nu Cumbia, vintage Ghanaian records, electro folk from the Sahel, Hausa autotune pop and unreleased Shangaan electro and much much more hotness….

Dubcovski (NL) – The guy has already worked its magic around the Netherlands but its main outpost is Utrecht where he and his kinds conflagrate various venues with their Neo Folk, Abstract Balkan waves. If you haven’t sweat all your fluids on the dancefloor yet. Be prepared to shake it madly with him. The trumpet flow never stops just like in Kusturica’s.

Palm M (Fr/NL) A French dude with a flair for good refreshing songs like Haïtian biguine, Surinamese hits, a slice of Brazilian new scene and some hidden tracks to clash as hell with his friends on stage.

Friday 14 Sept
Doors: 20:00 – 2:00h, free in before 23:00, 3€ after

Hello all!

Hope you had a good summer holiday where it might have taken you. Oh boy, it’s been roasty warm and sunny here the last few weeks. Time for another Rebel Up! Soundclash and we’ll keep it hot with some tropical Afro-Caribbean action with live Surinami band Lobi Firi and Ozzie global guest dj Unsoundbwoy from Melbourne.

Surinami band Lobi Firi will play their very special kaseko funk and kawina sound, impossible not to dance til you sweat! The band will start around midnight, so get in on time.

Unsoundbwoy will play a grinding selection between heavy dancehall and african electronic dance music, kuduro and more. Check some of his excellent mixes and mashups!

And the some, ofcourse the Rebel Up! dj’s will never miss out on a good Soundclash party. Expect a steady selection of unknown global tunes filled with sweet melodies for the ear or bouncing bass for the body. Watch out that you don’t get wrongfooted playing hopscotch with these onorthodox boy scouts.

Any profit on the night will go to NGO Bhakti Luhur in Eastern Java, which takes care of handicapped children. One of the aid workers is a dutchman who runs the excellent Madrotter Treasure Hunt blog, all about Indonesian pop, rock and folk music.

See ya there!

sat. 25 Feb > Rebel Up! Soundclash *global psyche night* with special guest Arrington de Dionyso (US) @ OCCII, A’dam

Hello hello,

It has been a while since we sadly had to cancel our december night due to unforeseen reasons, but we’re back with fresh energies to give you a special night of Rebel Up! sounds. Not our Congolese rumba night as previously promised, that one will happen in June! This will be a *global psyche night*, meaning we will focus on experimental & improvised global sounds as well as vintage pop/rock spheres from the 60’s and 70’s from different corners of the world. Ofcourse we’ll also give you a nice dose of heavy bass deeper into the night to big up the Rebel Up! kaleidoscope.

 

We’re happy to announce our special American guest Arrington de Dionyso (ex-Old Time Relijun, the psychedelic krautrock band from overseas & Malaikat dan Singa) who will bring his trans-utopian throatsinging, bass clarinet, inspired by Indonesian trance music as a live improvisation of global psychedelic proportions. Be warned, his sound will go deep into your soul and liberate it with shamanic power. Check out his outerwordly sounds; www.arrington.bandcamp.com


 

Our second guest will travel from less far Brussels, Belgium. DJ Lowdjo is an eclectic wizard of the sort that totally fits the Rebel Up! mood and we’re also happy to have him joining our global cause of diasphoric sound. He will play special vintage sets of Thai folk funk and Turkish psychedelic rock straight out of his 45’s collection that will get everyone swinging. Check his active blog and mixcloud for some of his fine mixes.

As always, the Rebel Up! crew will play electic ethnic sound and everything in between to make you listen & dance while our visuals will make sure there’s never a dull moment on the dancefloor.

The charity of the night where we will donate our profits to is NGO Bhakti Luhur in Malang, Eastern Java, which takes care of handicapped children. One of the aid workers is a dutchman who runs the excellent Madrotter blog, all about Indonesian pop, rock and folk music from the past with quality uploads, though since the whole megaupload bust his blog has been relocated at Madrotter Treasure Hunt.
