STL.radio is an open and accessible radio platform on air & on the ground for aspiring DJs, based in the DJ studio at Stelplaats. It is a community-focused initiative that revolves around providing space: for experimentation, for first steps, for Leuven DJs who want to grow. Through STL.radio, they get the chance to share their recorded sets – including those from events – to add to their budding portfolios. As part of Stelplaats, a breeding ground for youth culture and experimentation in the broadest sense, STL.radio builds bridges between creators, music and audiences. Stelplaats is the repurposing of the old De Lijn depots in Leuven.

Kaat Leën

A journey through sound art, experimental textures, and downtempo rhythms. Rooted in Arabic and Eastern influences, woven together with nature recordings and manipulated field sounds.

Mon

Mon's sets move fluidly through bass-driven music, downtempo, dubstep and experimental sounds, balancing weight with space while placing atmosphere and tension at the centre of the journey.

OsmO

The duo OsmO consists of Alice Van Langendonck and Andreas Van Kerkhoven. The duo draws inspiration from the complexity of everyday life, resulting in a musical balance between spatiality and composition.
