Re:fest is a small 2 day dj festival located in Oudenaarde.
It all began in the year 2001. Our goal is to bring underground music, all different styles.
There are always 2 or 3 different rooms with different kinds of music. Re:fest tries to introduce one subculture to another. People get to know other people and their music.
During the first edition there were live bands performing. This was the only edition with live bands. From then on we only invited dj's/electronic live acts to bring their music.
The first five editions were in the youth center in Oudenaarde - Welden. Due to problems with the neighbourhood we moved the festival to the Qubus (www.dequbus.be), Oudenaarde.
This year (2009) we'll even organise Re:Fest bigger and better!! The 7th edition will be the 15th and 16th of may.

Dougie Conscious from the Bush chemists, is a Roots ambassador : more than just a dedicated fan of King Tubby, Lee Perry, Scientist and the dub dynasty of the ‘70s and early ‘80s, Dougie started making his own sounds in 1989 with a simple four-track owned by one of his friend (Nick Manasseh). Producing several albums and LPs since 1996’s under the Conscious Sounds label, he released some of the hardest digital roots and crucial steppers in Britain.
Coptic Sound System is coming from Lille-Roubaix, north of France with his 9x1,25Kw sound system. Starting in 2000, Nic Coptic and Jericho I were playing radio shows and kept on spreading the conscious vibes by creating also the CSSA, Community Sound System Association. Coptic sound is a wonderful digital producer and they played with top international sounds as Aba Shanti, Channel one, Jah free, Insiration sound and many more.
De Bolwerkfanfare had haar tijd toch gehad, wie maalt erom? Rat Ka Bay Bal staat klaar om haar plaats in het muzikale landschap in te nemen... Strak in het pak, vlijmscherpe melodieën, onweerstaanbare grooves en een stevige dosis ‘kom-maar-op-als-ge-durft’!
DE BOLWERKFANFARE IS DOOD, LANG LEVE RAT KA BAY BAL!!
17 april – 20h – Cocteau – Jan Palfijnstraat 17 – Gent ---------------------------------------------- ET ALORS?!
La Bolwerkfanfare appartient au passé, on s’en fiche! Rat Ka Bay Bal est prêt à occuper sa place.
Complet trois-pièce, mélodies tranchantes, d’irrésistibles grooves.
LA BOLWERKFANFARE EST MORTE, VIVE RAT KA BAY BAL!!
17 avril – 20h – Cocteau – Jan Palfijnstraat 17 – Gand (B) ----------------------------------------------
SO WHAT?!
The Bolwerkfanfare had had her time anyway, who cares? Rat Ka Bay Bal is ready to take her place.
Dressed to impress, razorsharp melodies, irresistible grooves and a healthy ‘come-and-get-it’-attitude!
THE BOLWERKFANFARE IS DEAD, LONG LIVE RAT KA BAY BAL!!
April 17 – 20h – Cocteau – Jan Palfijnstraat 17 – Ghent
Het is (toch!) weer zover. We kunnen het niet laten en breien dus een vervolg aan de Koedanvibe!
Op zaterdag 11 april geven we er weer een lap op!!!
Het concept is in dat opzicht gewijzigd dat we jammer genoeg geen concerten zullen organiseren, maar volledig gaan voor de DJ's in alle maten en vormen en kleuren. En welke! Deze mensen zullen samen met jullie de koedansfeer weer helemaal bovenhalen en weer helemaal onze lichaamscellekes laten doordringen!
De Gentse Bolwerkfanfare is reeds verdwenen sinds 10 januari 2009. Doorgedreven speurwerk heeft niks opgeleverd De onzekerheid van haar lotsbestemming maakt het nog zwaarder om dragen,maar we moeten sterk zijn en aanvaarden:
DE BOLWERKFANFARE IS NIET MEER
Wij willen op 17 april samen met u een laatste eerbetoon brengen aan de Bolwerkfanfare. Blijf niet met je verdriet zitten, gedeelde smart is halve smart!
De dienst wordt ingekleed door de dames van RouwendeVrouwen.com en om 20h30 opgeluisterd door Rat Ka Bay Bal, een gezelschap dat ons eigenlijk volslagen vreemd is, maar dat beweert de Bolwerkfanfare zeer goed gekend te hebben.
------------------------------------------------- LA BOLWERKFANFARE N’EST PLUS
La cérémonie sera conduite par les dames de RouwendeVrouwen.com et accompagnée musicalement par Rat Ka Bay Bal, une compagnie inconnue qui néanmoins affirme avoir connu la Bolwerkfanfare de tout près.
----------------------------------------------------------- THE BOLWERKFANFARE IS GONE.
The service will be led by the ladies from RouwendeVrouwen.com and musically accompanied by Rat Ka Bay Bal, a band we’ve never heard of, but who claims having known the Bolwerkfanfare very well.
