(Dez Mona © Mous Lamrabat)
In late August the Ancienne Belgique will once again transform the Warandepark/Parc de Bruxelles – free, gratis, and for nothing – into your favourite fairy-tale forest with twinkling lights and bewitching music. The baroque pop ensemble Dez Mona will provide an atmospheric soundtrack for the first of five summer evenings: Gregory Frateur and Co. will be along on Monday 27 August, offering one last opportunity to see Sága, the “opera” they put together with BOX, in advance of the launch of their new album in the autumn. Spookhuisje (“little haunted house”) is the alias of Raphael Absolonne from Brussels, whose show on Tuesday 28 August will demonstrate how he is influenced by Indian ragas, Jimi Hendrix, drones, and psychedelia. The English electronica label Touch. celebrates its thirtieth birthday on Wednesday 29 August with BJ Nilsen, Philip Jeck, and the ambient house of Biosphere. On Thursday 30 August the Brussels indie-pop band Tommigun will present a preview of its new album; but first you can hear the fragile folk of Elke De Mey, alias Love Like Birds, from Ghent. The hypnotic, subsonic basses of G.H. (Gaz Howell) and the raw melancholy – swathed in a blanket of electronica – of Will Ozanne alias Gang Colours will wrap things up on Friday 31 August. Both youngsters will be making their Belgian debuts: go and see them now, as next time it’s likely to cost you a pretty penny.
