[PIAS] to organize second label showcase festival in Brussels

On March 25 and 26 [PIAS] is organizing the second [PIAS] Nites, a showcase festival in the historic Tour & Taxis venue in Brussels.

After last year’s sold out event, featuring acts like Vitalic, Laurent Garnier, Tiga, Kitty Daisy & Lewis and The Black Box Revelation, 2011 sees the [PIAS] Nites spread out over two days. This allows us to cater to more different styles, as is made apparent in the lineup.

On Friday March 25th, The Jim Jones Revue, Matt & Kim, Crystal Fighters, The Human League, Aeroplane, Buraka Som Sistema and a very special guest will rock the house.

On Saturday March 26th the baton is passed to legendary live act Faithless, supported by none other than Junior Jack & Kid Creme.

More names to be added soon, so make sure to check back regularly!

The Human League return after a ten year gap with the irresistible ‘Night People’. An outrageously catchy burst of suburban disco pop with some of the after dark urban drama of classics like Sound Of The Crowd, this is a track that bridges the gap between the League as influential forebears and a bang-on-the-button 2010 contemporary call to arms to clubbers all over the world, whatever decade they first danced in.

Catch them out on tour this November. Tickets: http://bit.ly/bVIjx3

There will be 3 finalists per track – 1 chosen by Royksopp, 1 by Genero.tv and 1 based on votes.
