Marlène Dorcena

“Marlène Dorcéna, Haitian living in Brussels, sings with an enveloping soft voice. (…) A bit of freshness, a bit of hope to heal, she hopes, the pains of her island.” – Les Livres du Soir

Côme Ranjard

“Co-produced during lockdown, this almost psychedelic pop / rock ballad takes us far, far away (…)” – RollingStone

“L’enfant Casanier” from Côme Ranjard an antem for shy people. A true gem!” – MAGIC, revue pop moderne

Jason Carter

Touring with his inimitable fusion of world music and classical styles, he has performed in almost 100 countries and travelled over a million miles ! “Jason helps to build much needed relationships across borders that the technological forces driving globalization could never achieve.” – Neville McBain, British Council, Iran

Marlène Dorcéna

In her first CD “Mèsy” she unveils the soul, colours, laughter and poetry of the people of her island. Her home country symbolises the sun, tourism and “Creolity”, but is also one of the poorest regions in the world. In Haiti, people sing to fight the despair of unbearable living conditions, they sing with strength and the conviction that singing in the sun will help them forget their misery. Her new album “Haïti” illustrates her musical journey and her gratitude towards Belgium, where, as she comments “It’s where that it all started”.

Côme Ranjard

Côme makes his music the same way we would build a house. Every corner of it looks like him and tells us more about it’s strange resident. As soon as we get to his front door, we are touched by his deep low voice and the poetry of his words. By the window, instruments come in and out freely. After releasing an EP very well received by the media, Côme is already on his way to recording an album. Among his neighbors, people may have seen Philippe Katerine, Bertrand Belin, Hayao Miyazaki, Caetano Veloso and the great Haruomi Hosono.
