Laekenveld

Sky is a well-known rapper in Brussels. He is associated with Guillotine Records label and has been making music for a longer time, exploring several styles. He has collaborated with various people, producers and rappers from the neighborhood, rappers from other areas in Brussels and performers from abroad.

De video clip of a recent track featuring Sky and Zvdu17 - Yanso was shot at Laekenveld Square with Tour & Taxis housing construction site in the back. It brings in a sound sphere marked by strong UK influences and sampling culture. Overall, it has an aggressive clean edge. There is a quite an articulated interest for sonic spatiality. Spatial sound effects such as inverted acoustics interplay with video images and text. On the background radio voice is dropping war announcements suggesting other spaces. Other effects used are phrasing of delays and reverbs to create spaces around the verses. This hip-hop track is rich in sonic spatiality projecting the listener into an aggressive but delicate real and moving sound sphere.
