“The secret for this so long going on party, is the happy mix of styles and
ages”
The first ever LA DEMENCE party took place almost 30 years ago in 1989 ! What
began as a weekly gay party on Sundays in small cities around Belgium has now
become one of Europe’s biggest and most renowned parties.
The concept really came into its own and became a roar-away success when the
parties settled down in the capital, Brussels, in 1992, and from then on took
place in a regular monthly slot at Fuse club: the day before a bank holiday or
on a Friday. Besides that,each anniversary at Halloween a full party weekend
with several parties is organised, including a huge Main Party at Palais 12.
What makes LA DEMENCE stand out from the other gay parties is the happy mix of
different styles and ages partying together: leather boys, bears, fashion
victims, muscle queens, drags, young and old – in total in excess of 2000 gays
having one hell of a party together. This happy mix creates a family feeling
which is the secret of this so long going on party!
As Brussels is strategically placed as a city, LA DEMENCE attracts visitors from
France, The Netherlands and Germany as well as hot sexy Italian, Swiss, Spanish,
British and American boys.
The venue at Fuse club is huge – containing three different rooms which has the
advantage of offering an eclectic range of music delivered by eight
international DJs progressing from techno to house, with even a smattering of
pop in the smaller room.
Great music and a great crowd also makes LA DEMENCE very sensual, so there are a
few darker areas well worth exploring for those looking for a more than just a
dance.

En 2018, le C12 est né de la collaboration du collectif Bruxellois “Deep in House” et de la Galerie Horta, dans le but de redonner vie à cet espace intemporel. Situé dans le cœur historique de Bruxelles, au pied de la Gare Centrale, le C12 est une plateforme multidisciplinaire aux installations modulables, reconnue pour sa polyvalence et son expérience dans la mise en place de concerts, d’expositions d’art, de performances, de défilés et de workshops.
Pour cet open air, le C12 a programmé
Reinel Bakole live, une chanteuse, expressionniste, compositrice, danseuse et interprète belgo-congolaise. A tout juste 23 ans, sa créativité et son authenticité sont des différenciateurs de qualité qui contribuent à faire la preuve de sa réussite. Elle est déjà citée par tant d’autres comme une étoile montante de la scène néo soul internationale.
Elle sera accompagnée par San Soda, est connu dans les milieux de la musique underground comme un véritable collectionneur de disques. Cela se voit dans ses DJ sets imprévisibles et prévisibles, qui sont composés de joyaux soigneusement choisis découverts après des années de fouilles de caisses à travers le monde. Basé à Berlin mais belge de naissance, San Soda passe au moins un certain temps chaque jour à chercher des disques, soit en ligne, dans les magasins, sur les marchés aux puces ou en fouinant dans des collections entières. House classique et techno avec un penchant rugueux, Chicago et Detroit sont ses principales préférences, entrecoupées de disco joyeux, d’afro enchanteur ou de coupes électro intemporelles.

In 2018 werd C12 geboren uit de samenwerking tussen het Brusselse collectief ‘Deep in House’ en Galerie Horta, met als doel deze tijdloze ruimte nieuw leven in te blazen. C12, gelegen in het historische hart van Brussel, aan de voet van het Centraal Station, is een multidisciplinair platform met modulaire installaties, bekend om zijn veelzijdigheid en zijn ervaring met het organiseren van concerten, kunsttentoonstellingen, performances, modeshows en workshops.
Voor deze open air heeft C12 het volgende geprogrammeerd:
Reinel Bakole live, een Belgisch-Congolese zangeres, expressioniste, componiste, danseres en performer. Ze is amper 23 jaar en haar creativiteit en authenticiteit zijn kwaliteitsdifferentiators die mee haar succes bewijzen. Ze wordt door velen al gezien als de rijzende ster van de internationale neo-soul-scene.
Ze wordt begeleid door San Soda, die in underground muziekkringen bekend staat als een echte platenverzamelaar. Dit is duidelijk te merken aan zijn onvoorspelbare en voorspelbare dj-sets, die bestaan uit zorgvuldig uitgekozen juweeltjes die hij ontdekte na jaren kisten over de hele wereld te hebben doorzocht. San Soda woont in Berlijn maar is Belgisch van geboorte. Hij zoekt dagelijks naar platen – online, in winkels, op rommelmarkten of door volledige verzamelingen te doorzoeken. Klassieke house en techno met een ruig randje, Chicago en Detroit zijn zijn grootste favorieten, afgewisseld met upbeat disco, betoverende afro of tijdloze electro.

In 2018, C12 was born from the collaboration of the Brussels collective "Deep in House" and Galerie Horta, with the aim of breathing new life into this timeless space. Located in the historic heart of Brussels at the foot of the Central Station, C12 is a multidisciplinary platform with modular installations, renowned for its versatility and experience in staging concerts, art exhibitions, performances, fashion shows and workshops.
For this open-air event, C12 has invited
•Reinel Bakole, a Belgian-Congolese singer, expressionist, composer, dancer and performer, to give a live performance. At just 23 years of age, her creativity and authenticity are a unique selling point and key to her success. She has already been hailed by many as a rising star on the international neo soul scene.
•She will be accompanied by San Soda, known in underground music circles as a deeply savvy record collector. This is demonstrated in his both unpredictable and predictable DJ sets, which are made up of carefully chosen gems uncovered after years of digging around in boxes around the world. Based in Berlin but Belgian by birth, San Soda spends time each day looking for records, either online, in shops, at flea markets or by rummaging through entire collections. Classic house and techno with a rough edge, Chicago and Detroit are his main favourites, interspersed with upbeat disco, enchanting Afro or timeless electro beats.
