While our finest filmfruit is being presented in Cannes as we blog;-), these music icons 🇧🇪 are shining along our own sunny seaside.
The particular Hall of Fame (Eregalerij) we are referring to may be local but the songs within AND their creators reach WAY beyond Belgian borders.
ArtistCongratz gladly adds some more international spotlight to our radionetworks tribute this week at Kursaal Ostend. A scintillating music gala, long overdue because of obvious reasons, finally could celebrate 🎶legends as our soul and popsensation Soulsister and soundwizard Wouter Van Belle.
On top of that two iconic songs are being included in the hall of fame.
Enjoy a zoom with a view, quite the sound and one or two backgroundstories…
Happy to reconnect with one of our finest writers🎶📚🇧🇪. Jan Leyers, One half 🎸of Soulsister, the showstopper of the evening with a sparkling performance of their signature song🎼 “The Way to Your Heart” Soulsister in jumping boomerang modeYes, this is him, the other Soulsister-showstopper. But actually they’re just “starting”. With a brandnew single called “I Need Your Love”, produced by youngster Jasper Maekelberg, Music Industry Awardwinner as in: best producerAlways a pleasure to talk to a sound wizard. Without Wouter Van Belle no legendary piano intro of “Mia”, a song that is like a true anthem in Belgium. He has also worked his magic🎶 for Axelle Red, Novastar, Noordkaap, Milk The Bishop, Jo Lemaire, Stash and many more…“Soldiers of Love”, Eurovisionsong written by singer Liliane Saint Pierre herself, thirty five years ago, while she was watching the news. Sadly history keeps repeating itself but her song remains a timeless beaken of hope. And an inspiration to a whole new generation for that matter. Our junior channel formation Like Me covers their very own version. Wouldn’t it be awesome to make it a duet between the two?Young talent 🇧🇪 Pommelien Thys, paying tribute to Stefaan Fernande, a true songwriting legend who sadly and way too early passed away recently. Tons of evergreens came from his creative and imaginative mind. Scars (Stan Van Samang), Porselein (Porcelain) Yasmine, and Vuurwerk (Fireworks) by Camille to name just a few. Next tribute came from one of our most cherished bands 🇧🇪🎶⬇️Clouseau aka brothers Koen and Kris Wauters singing for Stefaan. Nobelprijs (Nobelprize) is a classic written by this maker of so many unforgettable songs✍️🎼Only one voice can pay tribute to the beloved Icon Arno this way. Hear hear Stijn Meuris 🎤Oh la la!
