Dusk 'til dawn

Libertine Supersport

How about a night out at Mirano in Brussels? The Libertine Supersport parties always guarantee a good vibe. On Friday, for instance, crowd-pleaser Erol Alkan (pictured) is back for more. The London-based electro DJ has played in Brussels before, and is back in our capital after a tour of Australia. Also behind the Mirano decks will be Daniel Avery. Experts call him the creator of one of the most forward-thinking electronic sounds today, and he’s also part of Alkan’s record label, Phantasy Sounds.

There will be a live set by Flume, too. The Australian DJ – actually called Harley Streten – is visiting Europe for a small tour. He’s only in his early 20s, but has already become one of Australia’s most in-demand producers. Pretty impressive... but let’s not forget about our own local talent, like Libertine Supersport’s Brussels-based resident Rick Shiver. He’s known and loved for his eclectic music style, which has only one aim: getting the crowd moving on the dance floor.

Sofie from DJ duo L-Fêtes adds a female touch to the line-up. Expect a mix of disco, funk, ’80s music, house and more. It’s a rhythmic concoction that has spiced up many clubs and parties in and around Brussels and is just what we need to get through the winter weekends.

Tickets cost €8 before midnight; €13 euro if you show up later. Should you still feel festive, the bar serves cocktails and champagne. The latter is “only” €50 if you grab a bottle before 1.00. Don’t say we didn’t warn you.
