🇧🇪 This is not a mix! This is a love set! It's a sharing of some records I've loved (and bought in two awesome shops in Brussels - Crevettes Records and Balades Sonores) over the past year. A music sharing. It presents exclusively Belgian-based artists - labels - productions. Almost 100% vinyl (two digital tracks provided by the artists themselves), electronic music mostly, 2020 edition mainly (a few from summer 2019). Obviously, it does not represent the diversity of musical production in Belgium. But, through a part of this local scene, I wanted (and I tried) to celebrate the wonderful cultural diversity of "my" country (three institutional communities, three official languages) and Brussels (which is, with 180 nationalities represented, one of the most cosmopolitan cities in the world). Mix to maximum. Welcome to Belgium 🇧🇪 
🙏🏼 Huge thanks to all the local musicians, producers, labels, record stores, concert venues, clubs, djs, independent radio stations, actors of the music scene...Warm greetings to Kiosk Radio (https://kioskradio.com/)
