Last year was a special evening during Shining‘s Incubated show in the Paradox. Why? Because we released the first names for Incubate 2012 that evening. Call it fate, but Shining has released a new video yesterday (while we are planning to release our first names on Thursday) for their awesome song “I Won’t Forget” and [...]

[Listen] Genre playlists of Incubate 2012 – Part two
June 22, 2012
Last week we’ve started with publishing playlists by genre. Because of the (now) 155 announced artists it’s for the most people hard to keep it manageable. And second of all we can understand that not everybody, like us, can listen to a free-metal track followed-up by a neoclassical song. That’s why we’ve created eight different playlists with [...]
[Listen] Genre playlists of Incubate 2012 – Part one
June 15, 2012
After adding almost 150 names we can understand that it is hard to follow which artists you should see on Incubate 2012. That’s why we’re gonna help you from now by making special playlists on genres/styles. Probably you’re already familiar with our Spotify Incubate 2012 playlist, so you can listen to almost everything that we’ve [...]
[Listen] Matthew Shipp live at Incubate 2011
March 13, 2012
The inimitable Matthew Shipp treated Incubate 2011 visitors for an hour-long of unmatched piano virtuosity. A mix between own work and improvisation, best described by the master himself with the following quote: “The next tune I will play is… Well… I don’t know“. We recorded the session that you can listen to below or on our slowly expanding Soundcloud, that [...]

Dutch jazz drummer and multi-instrumentalist Han Bennink will be coming to Tilburg. He is not only known for his enthusiasm, but also makes sure every show is unique because of the random objects he gets on stage just before his show.

April 26, 2011
Watch this cool short experimental film/music video about a guy who looks at life through a scaffolding pipe (‘Steigerpijp means scaffolding pipe in Dutch). The actors featured in this film as well as the music were created by the Instant Composers Pool Orchestra (ICP), which is a group of jazz musicians from the Netherlands. In [...]

If you have never seen Jaga Jazzist before, this show is highly recommended. If you’ve ever seen Jaga Jazzist before, you know you don’t want to miss out on any other gig from Jaga again. The band consists of two brothers Lars and Martin Horntveth with a good amount of great rotating musicians. Together they [...]

Mothers for acid + some other acid stuff!
June 18, 2013
Chris Moss has a mother. And that mother approves of acid house. We can’t help but feel that if Chris Moss’ mother would have been prime-minister instead of Margaret Thatcher, that the Acid House movement would have been -for better or for worse- very different. Here is Chris’ mom, approving of her son playing acid [...]
