Spotlight On Title + Visual Kitchen.

We’ve been pushing Title since we’ve got beats from him in the build-up to our first event last October. ‘Caravan’ turned out to be the biggest ‘hit’ that night at Beursschouwburg, getting a massive crowd response. Since then RELEASE partner On Point decided to put that track on the second 7” they will release. You’ll be able to get that piece of vinyl at our event this Saturday.

Recently been called a ‘wonky’ Belgian on national radio but in our opinion much more than what that foolish description stands for. What struck us in the music we’ve heard from him so far is the maturity and musicality of it. Much opposed to the often very basic loops we get. His tunes evolve and have structure. This adult approach to making songs is even more remarkably considering his young age.

Style-wise it’s much more than just abstract beats. It’s certainly has been inspired by the current stream of beatmakers but you’ll find hints of other genres in his music too like jazz, indie rock and electro. But we rather let you be the judge of that. Check his Soundcloud for examples of his work.

He’ll be joined on stage by 2 members of the UpHigh Collective; mc Sir-5 and singer Delvis. The first one you might have spotted on stage at our first event with i-Sa, the second you’ll know by now as the voice on ‘Blend’, the other a-side on the flip of Title’s ‘Caravan’ 7”.

We’ve paired him with Visual Kitchen to provide the visuals during his gig. Some of you might go ‘they’re not really upcoming, are they ?’ and you are absolutely right, of course. These pioneers of the Belgian VJ-scene have done collaborations with dance-events like 10daysOff, I Love Techno and Groovecity, had ‘artist-in-residency’-status at Concertgebouw in Bruges and have a pretty extensive and impressive CV to browse through. But who are we to say no when they apply to participate and agree to our conditions (which are do it for free as our event is a completely voluntary one). Plus it will, no doubt, be an introduction to their dazzling visuals for many among our crowd and that’s still the reason why we do it.
