Rocking bolts, fanfare tents, watery sounds & sights and a whole lotta groovin' ~ a look back at this year's festival's sights and moods, as captured by the inimitable Hans van der Linden.

As a symbol of gatherings past and the voices that trailed behind them, Simon Van Honacker's setting up his installation Tempo In Vlaanderen for anyone to visit/get lost in mentally and sonically in the Het Bos courtyard. Ambient characters and trademarked organic symphonies are just a ghost braderie away ~ ~ ~

Rounding up the performer parade are lathe utopians Spuk Disk. A spaced-out spazzed-out medley of cuts and beats bouncing from three corners of the room and lasting till who knows to end the festival in all flyness. New stuff will be tried out to melt limbs and heads all the way to the bus!

Mariska Baars, aka soccer Committee, is back after a hiatus of a decade-plus. Delicate yet deeeep guitar singings and a yearning for simpler moments with nature will affect those sitting or standing around sC's tender siren's songs. Catch her on Saturday ~ THIS SATURDAY!

The bad first: Pierre Elitair will sadly not make it to the festival due to health complications. But here's the good: his comrade in crimes Daniel De Botanicus has gracefully stepped up to close the Friday night ceremonies with a multi-synth set for the ages as his Antwerp-renonwned alter ego Cassis Cornuta. KORGING TIMES AHEADDD.
