In the late 1980s, a small team of Belgian artists—armed with samplers, analog gear, and an irreverent sense of humor—flooded the underground with a staggering number of releases. At the center of this creative explosion were Jo Casters, Roland Beelen, and a self-described “tech-nerd in a basement,” whose drive to experiment and produce helped define a formative era of electronic music. From pioneering New Beat to crafting club hits under dozens of aliases, their story is one of speed, spontaneity, and raw innovation.
