Fat White Family

Fat White Family, founded in 2011, is led by Lias Kaci Saoudi. Their debut album "Champagne Holocaust" (2013) and the follow-up "Songs for Our Mothers" (2016) brought them recognition, while "Serfs Up!" (2019) was hailed as triumphant. Hits like "Touch the Leather" and "Whitest Boy on the Beach" characterize their quirky post-punk-indie-pop blend. In 2022, their biography "Ten Thousand Apologies" was released, shedding light on their edge of fame and madness. On January 24, 2024, the band released two new songs titled "Bullet of Dignity" and "Religion for One." The band continues to be a prominent force in the modern music scene.

Plexi Stad

The year 2022 marked the birth of Antwerp music group Plexi Stad. With a musical blend of melancholy and itchiness, the band creates an atmospheric journey that resists definition as much as it is rhythmically infectious. The outfit's first EP 'Probation Baby’, was released on 20 april 2023 on Belly Button Records and their own label ALAS!. Recorded, mixed and mastered by Rafael Valles Hilario.

A cheerful melody in Plexi Stad's world quickly unravels into a darker, more abrasive soundscape. An invitation to dance transforms into a sonic confrontation, revealing the band's penchant for teasing the listener with unexpected twists. The cheerful facade dissolves into an intense and raw expression that refuses to bend to the prevailing norms. The poetic punk prowess of singer Peleman is as much seductive as it is dismissive. There's no compromise in both the instrumental and lyrical delivery.
The band delves into the dark sounds of James Chance & The Contortions, embracing the dissonant and unpredictable. Simultaneously, they channel the defiant spirit of bands like The Pop Group and TC Matic. Plexi Stad absorbs, reinterprets, and spits out a sound that is uniquely theirs.

The second EP 'Siren Dance' will come out early 2024 on Mangel Records. Recorded by Roald Duchateau at Stand Out studios. Mastered by Bill Skibbe from Third man Mastering.
