What’s the link between Werner Egk, Ola Tunji, JPEGMAFIA, and Michel Chion? Nothing — except that music needs contrast.

For my next Kiosk Radio show, I’ll dive into Brussels' musical present with the explosive jazz of Ola Tunji (Egon Wolfson & Ornella Noulet), the elegant strings of Le Monde Merveilleux de Pepito, fresh recordings from Guy Segers / Univers Zero and Eclectic Maybe Band, plus a selection of bold classical works by Werner Egk, Franz Schreker, and Anthony Girard.

And of course, I’ll bring it back to where I come from — JPEGMAFIA, Daringer, and Michel Chion’s Tu to keep things unpredictable.
