Mainstream comes to you, but you have to go to the underground

Subbacultcha and Ancienne Belgique announced the third edition of unique festival ‘The Sound of the Belgian Underground’ next 28 January 2018.

Under the flag of ‘The Sound Of The Belgian Underground’, Subbacultcha and Ancienne Belgique unite local musical talent that is active in the margin: bands that value artistic freedom and don’t necessarily focus on a broader audience.

Afia
Afia is the brainchild of Thalina Afya Konadu. This songwriter from Antwerp creates subtle bedroom soul that reminds one of British artists Fatima and Tirzah.

AIR LQD
Mehdi Kernachi of AIR LQD crafts dark industrial music that he injects with hysterical noise and hard techno. Fast and furious.

Crowd Of Chairs
Crowd Of Chairs is a new band from Ghent that contains members of Youff and Deer. The trio creates exuberant post-punk doesn’t give a fuck what you think of it.

Le77
If we can believe Zwangere Guy, Le 77 is the next big thing on the Belgian hip-hop scene. Félé Flingue, Peet, Morgan and Rayan ensure chill beats, sultry raps and a catchy live show.

Sale Gosse
Sale Gosse is the coolest family business on the Belgian music scene. Mother Agathe, son Nino and daughter Randa win you over with their raw lo-fi rock.

Kassett
Together with ssaliva, Kassett is one of the most influential and inventive producers in the country. Kassett has found its own sound, somewhere between dreamy hip-hop, futuristic pop and exotic electronica.

Vaal
With a changing cast (involving guitar, bass, synths and minimal percussive), the trio from Ghent that is Vaal opts for emptiness. Together with the Dutch-language lyrics (that range from parlando to screaming), the result is a grimly peculiar vibe that reminds one of cold wave, krautrock and ambient.

Christine Denamur
Christine Denamur sounds like the perfect cross between Braids and FKA Twigs. Her debut single Emptiness is a gem that places the focus upon her mesmerizing voice.

Wolvennest
Wolvennest is the new band encompassing Shazzula. With only one album and a number of shows, the psychedelic metal band established an impressive international reputation in no time at all.

Golin
American-Japanese singer and producer Golin (formerly known as RIN) is the rising star within Brussels’ electronica music scene. Her hi-fi electronica laced with eastern melodies sometimes reminds one of the best of Grimes.
