PHLOWx is an open platform for live performances and DJ sets. Artists take over the event space with sets that push boundaries, surprise and connect. Expect no frills, but a minimalist and raw setting where makers and community come together — live, intense and distinctive. Come and listen, stay a while, and let yourself be carried along. The programme will be announced at the end of January.

Benz Pharaoh

Benz Pharaoh is a stellar name out of the European underground. A self-shaped, refreshing trap sound makes him an automatic one to watch, for the future.

Born in Dordrecht, in the Netherlands, he moved with his family at a young age to Mechelen, Belgium. As a teenager he started out on the internet making beats and sharing them on Youtube. After some years, Benz slowly started to gain interest in rapping and producing songs which resulted in the rising path he has been on right now.

Cédrick Karl Kana

Bujumbura-born (Burundi) and Antwerp-raised DJ – KARL’s musical world is influenced by Cashmere Cat and Ryan Hemsworth. His very eclectic sets hop from house and electronic sounds to hip-hop, afrobeats, R&B, baile funk, etc.
