According to some mudslingers KRAAK festival is the best festival Belgium has got to offer. This might be somewhat of a dandyesque wisecrack, but we are sure that the sixteenth edition again is a canticle of underground music.

Keeping one eye on history, one on the present and a third one on the future, the festival evaluates what is going on in the limbo that is called experimental music. We made a selection for you, based on a fragile and wayward intuition. What have we got for you this year? Broken no wave, twisted trash rock, avant-garde synth explorers, established composers, poesia sonora, contemporary folk music, noise legends, minimalists, off track free jazz en The Other in all its genuine forms and appearances.
