En 2014, le Magasin4 fête ses 20 ans ! De 1994 à 2014, ce sont plus de 3300 groupes qui se sont produits en nos murs situés tout d'abord 4, Rue du Magasin et ensuite 51B, Avenue du port.
C'est une aventure humaine et artistique de plusieurs vies !
Tout aurait été impossible sans les nombreux bénévoles, les nombreux groupes, les nombreux organisateurs ainsi que tous ceux qui ont contribué de loin ou de près à la vie de ce lieu à l'atmosphère unique.
Pour bien souffler les bougies, nous préparons un mois de festivité en septembre 2014. Nous y inviterons des groupes qui ont compté pour l'équipe lors de ces deux décennies !
Cependant, pour ne pas limiter cette fête à un seul mois, plusieurs concerts entreront dans nos '20 Years of Magasin4'. Ces concerts convieront des groupes qui sont proches du lieu artistiquement et humainement (OvO, Suma, etc....)
20 ans, c'est beaucoup et à la fois peu. En effet, malgré la longévité du lieu et sa reconnaissance dans le temps, l'avenir s'inscrit toujours en pointillé du côté de l'Avenue du Port. Les mutations urbaines bruxelloises ne nous permettent pas d'entrevoir un avenir à long terme. L'équipe bénévole du Magasin4 désire vous accueillir pour ses 20 ans et plus longtemps encore !
Merci à toutes et à tous de votre soutien dans le passé et à l'avenir et place à la fête !
In 2014, the Magasin4 celebrates its 20th birthday! From 1994 to 2014, more 3300 bands have played in our club, firstly located at the 4, Rue du Magasin and then at the 51B, Avenue du port.
It is a human and artistic adventure of many lifetimes! Nothing would have been possible without the volunteers, the band, the promoters and all the people who have contributed to the venue's life.
To properly blow out the candles, we prepare a month of celebration in September 2014. We will invite bands who counted for the team during the past two decades! However, we will not limit this party to one month; other gigs will be part of the '20 Years of Magasin4' series. Those gigs will invite band that are close to the venue, artistically and humanly. (OvO, Suma, etc....)
Having 20 years does not mean that you will live long. Indeed, despite the longevity of the place and its recognition, the future of the venue is still unclear. The urban changes in Brussels do not allow us to to foresee a long-term future at the 51 Avenue du Port. The volunteer team of theMagasin4 wants to welcome you for its 20th birthday but for a much longer time than that!
Thanks everybody for your support in the past and in the future. Let the party Begin !

» The Ex (Noise / Rock / Jazz / post-punk)
The Ex will play an exclusive show with appearance of Ken Vandermark
The adventurous, innovative Dutch band The Ex just celebrated its 33⅓ year anniversary with a series of festivals. Not merely retrospective but primarily forward-looking and adventurous. Among the many guests invited were young as well as seasoned experimental, improvising and other exciting musicians from Amsterdam, Berlin, New York, Chicago, Ethiopia, Scandinavia and Great Britain.
The Ex have defied categorization ...
» L'enfance Rouge (Avant Rock / Noise Rock)
THE RED CHILDHOOD. More than 2000 concerts from 1995, from Vilnius to Tbilissi, from Swinoujscie to Sevilla as from Prague to Tunis, invited by international festivals, theatres and clubs. Electricity. Blue lights. Still uncontrolled.
Avant-rock. Without boundaries, neither musical nor geographical. The European press talks about them as crossroads between introversion and acceleration, between cerebralism and wildness or barbarity. Unpredictables.
SOME CONCERTS :
Montreux ...
Duo basse-batterie à la discographie déjà prolifique –deux EP, deux Live, un album-, GATECHIEN décroche la timbale en s’attachant les services de TED NICELEY, producteur de Fugazi, Jawbox ou encore Noir Désir, pour enregistrer “4”, son deuxième effort studio à La Nef (Angoulême) en janvier 2008. Les 12 titres puissants, mélancoliques, mélodiques et rageurs sont mixés à New York City par Eli Janney -bassiste de Girls Against Boys-, séduit par l’univers du groupe. Les 2 énergumènes se rencontrent ...
» Vitas Guerulaitis (Dada / Zouk / Other)
Vitas Guerulaïtis comprises three french activists who sought refuge in Brussels. One may wonder what brought the trio together as their drummer (David Costenaro) is an image editor who loves monoskiing and worships Jim Thompson, their keyboard player (Célia Jankowski) specialises in performance and studies the behaviour of flies, and their guitar player (Ismaël Colombani) is a mystical violin player who gives lectures once in a while.
Their debut album has been released on Cheap Satanism ...
