  • WAJDI RIAHI TRIO

    Wajdi Riahi Trio was formed in Brussels in 2020. The strong bonds between these three young musicians translates to a solid, cohesive dynamic in their playing. Following a proposal from Fresh Sound Records, Wajdi decided to write a new repertory for the trio. The new music is rhythmically, melodically, and harmonically varied, and each song tells a true story from Wajdi’s life, and that honesty comes through in the trio’s playing.

  • KASSIUS (angl)

    KASSIUS isn't new in town but after a reflective and creative periode during the pandemic, they feel like KASSIUS has finally become what it was meant to be. They threw out the music sheets and started producing their music in the studio, then bringing it to a live composition. In the rehearsal room they only focus on the live aspect and try to have a good time: "if you manage to capture the energy of a couple of friends in a room just having fun, a song can't be bad".

  • KUNA MAZE

    Kuna Maze est producteur, DJ et musicien. Il aime jongler entre ses différentes casquettes mais aussi avec les genres musicaux: “entre le jazz et la musique électronique, il n’y a plus vraiment de frontière. Pour moi il n’y a pas une grosse difference. Ce n’est pas contradictoire de mixer de la house, du broken beat ou du UK garage et d’avoir un projet jazz avec des instrumentistes.” Voici le projet le plus récent de ce mille-pattes musical; des tracks produits à la maison et joués en live sur scène: “on va reconnaître les tracks mais ce n’est pas joué pareil”. Si vous voulez découvrir sa recette secrète pour transformer ses tracks en live, écoutez le podcast du Brussels Jazz Alert de ce mois: KUNA MAZE!
