'Rats', second album by BALTHAZAR, has just been released last october, and the whole country's press already claims that it's '2012's best Belgian band' ! Following an acclaimed act at Pukkelpop, the band has been touring Flanders (completely sold out) and Europe. Back home, they'll be presenting this new material to the audience at [PIAS] Nites !
Since its birth nearly 30 years ago, [PIAS] has been creatively involved in the (r)evolution of a multitude of artists, record labels and music genres as they transition from niche to crossover. We strive to work with the most inventive and original artists possible and, without compromise, take their music to the widest possible audience. The primary interest of the people that work at [PIAS] has and will always been their passion for music and, whilst we’re a commercial company, we’re 100% independent and one of the leaders of what remains a great tradition of non-corporate label culture.
[PIAS] Nites is the natural extension of our culture. These Nites are built as high quality events – quality music performed in quality spaces resulting in quality memories. Of course these events promote the work of our artists and labels, but they’re primarily intended to be unique experiences in discovery, excitement and eclecticism. More than just a concert or mini festival, [PIAS] Nites are specifically designed to challenge all our senses and leave the music and party lover with a unique experience to remember.
A non exhaustive list of artists that [PIAS] has either discovered or worked with through the years includes: Editors; Pixies, Young Gods, Royksopp, Propellerheads, Vitalic, Tiga, Laurent Garnier, Agnes Obel, Bloody Beetroots, Prodigy, Underworld, Ghinzu, Deus, Soulwax, TwoManyDJ’s, Human League, Grace Jones, Reverend & The Makers, Nick Cave, Dépêche Mode, Moby, Muse, Arcade Fire, Franz Ferdinand, Arctic Monkeys , Oasis, Front 242, An Pierlé, Arsenal, Agoria, Crystal Fighters, Matt and Kim, Jim Jones Revue, Aeroplane, Meat Beat manifesto, MSTRKRFT, Soap and Skin... the list goes on...
In 2012 [PIAS] Nites are the real-time experience of what [PIAS] stands for since 1982.
