Sat. 25 Aug; Rebel Up! Soundclash > afro caribbean night with Lobi Firi (NL/SR) & Unsoundbwoy (AU)

Posted on August 21, 2012 by Rebel Up

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!

Rebel Up! fusion Amsterdam < > Brussels

Posted on August 5, 2012 by Rebel Up

Hello all,

bit of news; our Rebel Up! dj compadre Riquetik is on his way to Budapest for the next 4 years and it is a real pity that we have to wave him goodbye for now.

A bit of new changes coming up on the Rebel Up! front as we try to keep it fresh both in Amsterdam and Brussels by letting in some new musical blood. After the summer, Rebel Up! will embrace the dj crew from Brussels Up! Soundsystem, which is Sebcat‘s global Brussels project that was started over a year ago with dj’s LeBlanc, Darcyr and Sonidero Quilombo. It will be much easier to continue under one name and from now on Rebel Up! will be more represented in Brussels besides Amsterdam so that we can keep on throwing good parties for you!

don’t forget, next Rebel Up! Soundclash will be saturday 25th of August @ OCCII Amsterdam, followed by saturday 27th october. More news soon!

Wedn 20 June @ Ateliers Claus, BXL; King Ayisoba (GH), Zea (NL), support by dj´s Grrrt & Rebel Up! Sebcat

Posted on June 13, 2012 by Rebel Up

this concert has been rescheduled to wednesday 20 june after the show of 9 june was cancelled due to visa problems.

special night in Brussels at Ateliers Claus this Saturday with fresh sounds from Ghana!

KING AYISOBA is a number one star in Ghana, with a few big hits and one number one hit over the last five years. His song “I Want to see you my Father” is in the hearts and minds of every Ghanaian. King Ayisoba is part of the new Hip-Life scene and changed the scene with his new approach by using traditional instruments and songs together with the beats, bleeps and bass that make Hip Life so an exciting modern style. King Ayisoba plays the kologo, a two string instrument that originates from the north of Ghana. The sound is melodic and percussive at the same time. It works really well with the jumpy beats and catchy bass lines that come from his sampler. King Ayisoba sings partly in English and partly in his traditional own language, his lyrics are sometimes funny, often actual, very personal and always imaginative. Sometimes the music reminds of Bo Didley with its percussive catchy beat but this is blues of the 21st century and King Ayisoba is driving the cattle.

ZEA / Solo performance from Arnold de Boer (The Ex) deploying guitar and sampler for an almighty bout of crazily high energy songs – urgent lyrics over guitar, roughshod beats and grimy bass lines. Joyfully obstinate, wonderfully bonkers.

DJ GRRRT – outernational eclectic selecter dance to a wall of records that come from all over the world and contain those songs you did not hear before and make you ask yourself why, while dancing on its catchy beats and humming the melody. Traveling has never been so easy. here is his blog: http://jongensvandevlakte.blogspot.com/ and label: http://www.redwig.org/

Warming-up & inbetween sounds by REBEL UP! SEBCAT – unheard and eclectic african sounds, from vintage swing to folky riddims, autotune pop and more. Warmblooded music for waiting at the bar and perhaps a slow swing.
