Oscilador Bass (Mexico)
The favorite ancestral robot of housewives and washing machines was assembled over 15 thousand light years ago with parts of ancestral robots and spatial glass pieces; this supreme being is the miracle of his extinct civilization. His planet called “Cumbiatron”, a planet full of technology and beings focused on creating a fusion of electronic components and feelings. Oscilador Bass is a robot with a heart. His mission and objective is to collect music and culture of all galaxies. After long traveling to find a destination, he discovered a planet called “Earth”, after investigating he finds out it is a civilization full of feelings and love, therefore he decides to establish his home there. Oscillador Bass created a new sound called Latin Bass Sound mixing güiros, cencerros and tumbas with the best spatial sound getting his sole objective: to feel and to transmit happiness to all humanity, fulfilling the desire of their ancestors”. He started the free netlabel Latin bass mexico records, counting 8 mega compilations of latin bass sounds and has also released 4 EP’s of his own productions.

Aero Manyelo
Born in Zebediela, Limpopo in 1987, and growing up in the Johannesburg township of Ivory Park, Manyelo was influenced by his father’s love of jazz – and his music has a depth that distinguishes it from South Africa’s plethora of house music. Township Electro is how Manyelo describes his sound and sees him ready to take it to increasing numbers of fans around the globe and at home. Over the past decade, Manyelo’s career has been rapidly gaining momentum on the back of a string of releases on labels such as Out Here Records, Akwaaba Music, Get Physical Music and his own label Herbal 3 Records. His considerable remix skills have also been in demand (Amadou & Mariam’s “Ce N’est Pas Bon” and Jupiter & Okwess International’s “Margarita”), while his original tracks have been included in several high-profile international compilations, and has worked with many renowned artists.

Thu 7 June, Rebel Up & Friends session w/ Bleepolar (CO) @ Kiosk Radio, Bxl

yes, another Rebel Up & Friends livestream session at Brussels Kiosk Radio, in Parc Royal.

For this session we invited Colombian producer/remixer Bleepolar, one of the most interesting ethnic electronic producers of Bogota! He’s been reinventing afro-colombian rythms such as Cumbia and Champeta with a subtle and classy touch by fusioning it with house music, african techno and dancehall elements. It’s his first time touring in Europe and we’re thrilled to have him.

Our session will run from 16 to 18h, starting with SebCat and Bleepolar straight after.
Tune in on the livestream, or follow the Rebel Up FB page.

Next day on friday 8 june, Bleepolar will perform live at the Deep Tribal South America Special party night by our friends of Global Hybrid in Zodiak Club with a real nice South American lineup. For all info see FB event. Don’t miss out.
