Dansende Beren showcase #2

Ciao Kennedy is a lo-fi meal with pop leftovers, a bit of jazz topped with a hip-hop sauce, served in a supersonic Brussels tram.

Ão[ɐ͂w̃]is, depending on how you pronounce it, something painful, something beautiful, something sad, an expression of wonder or just total nonsense. South American guitar sounds, an ambient universe of pedals and cassettes, groovy percussion and mesmerising vocals in Portuguese, English and Dutch. At the end of 2020, their first self-titled EP was released. The music written and recorded as musical pen pals 2000 km apart during the lockdown. Live they interweave southern traditional sounds, rhythms and saudade with a poppy-ambient dimension of electronic effects and beats.

Jack Vamp is the indie-surf alter ego of Belgian youngster Arthur Boussiron. In the musical world of Jack Vamp, the sun never sets, which leads to a sense of insanity. Up-tempo happy guitars are accompanied with lyrics that seem brighter than they are. In other words, this is the soundtrack to dance to when you’re sad and you don’t know why! FFO: DIIV, Circa Waves, Allah-Las, Real Estate, Alvvays, King Krule, Big Thief, Connan Mockasin, Snail Mail, ...

After several years of absence, Mia Lena returns in 2021 with a brand new sound inspired by hip-hop and R&B, the 23-year-old Brussels singer infuses her catchy pop music with an exciting new twist.

Lubricate your calves for an intense session of catchy guitar violence. Ripping guitars, pumping percussion and a solid wall of sound.

Sweats, straight from your middle-class basement, brings heavy oestrogen-fueled beats with a spicy sauce of attitude and punk that’s been shrunk in the hottest of liquids.

The Yummy Mouths were born with only one goal: to look for the ultimate garage pop song. Expect juicy songs with excesses of punk, surf and garage rock from these three gentlemen of the Kempen.
