N’Djamena, Chad, 31 January 2019
African influences, African sounds, African traditions, Africa now… a continent that goes beyond its geographical limits, shaping cultures and styles worldwide, a place where the old and new meet, fight, build future traditions. From the marginal center of N’djamena, Chad, to the periphery of London, UK from old town Havana, Cuba to flourishing Nairobi, Kenya, find the colours, roots, shapes of such diversity… find "Afrique partout"!

HAPE BXL had a special edition with a line-up de fogo (and a Brazilian touch!). Go Dugong is one of the most interesting young Italian producers (check out his last album, Curaro - a trip into roots, mythology and new sounds). He came to HAPE BXL#8 under the hat of Balera Favela, a super hot party Milan where Go Dugong and his gang hit it hard every month with some explosive dj sets of baile funk and Brazilian music.
