The annual high mass for the musical adventurer welcomes you to AB from 4 to 8 April. Yes, you read that right: BRDCST is expanding into a five-day event.   

As always, we’re doing away with musical algorithms: our heartbeat is the only benchmark This is borne out by the bill, consisting of a variety of genres and artists from all over the world. We are also taking over the Onze-Lieve-Vrouw-ter-Rijke-Klaren/Notre-Dame aux Riches Claires church this year and expanding to include pre- and aftershows. 

If you want to take a deep dive into the line-up, read the words of festival curator Kurt Overbergh here.

4 APRIL ► PRE-SHOW w/ Autechre

Autechre kicks off the festival. For over 35 years, AE have been an inimitable act with their bouncy electronica: complex, abstract, dark, cubist and funky all at the same time.  

5-7 APRIL ► Early Bird Festival Pass

Are you up for three days of musical discovery? Then you should go for an (Early Bird!) Festival Pass. The line-up is not yet complete but the first batch of names is already impressive and promising:

Alabaster DePlume - Amaro Freitas - Attila Csihar presents 'Void Ov Voices' + 'The Nosferatu Project' - BCUC (Bantu Continua Uhuru Consciousness) - Brìghde Chaimbeul - Cole Pulice - Ellen Arkbro presents 'CHORDS For Organ' - Goat (JP) - Gordan ft. Svetlana Spajić presents 'Shara' - Holy Tongue - Lenhart Tapes presents 'Dens' - Moin - Shida Shahabi - Shovel Dance Collective - Slauson Malone 1 - Tirzah

8 APRIL ► AFTERSHOW w/ Oneohtrix Point Never 

As the final act, OPN brings BRDCST to a close. This will be an aftershow with a selection of earlier work: from Returnal via Replica, R Plus 7 to Age Of – as well as his latest album Again which he made with the aid of AI.
