Mab'ish is the alter ego of dancer-artist-dj Isabelle Clarençon from France. She worked as a professional dancer and, in 2014, started DJing in many Parisian clubs. Her DJ sets are full of original records that don't shy away from the experimental. Dance rhythmically to the dance steps of the intriguing Mab'ish!

​

Come On Feet originated from a love for EDM (electronic dance music) and the fascination to perform this music movement in all its subgenres live on stage. Together with house and afro dance styles, Come On Feet presents Footwork as a dance style in a performance with live club music. In a team of seven dancers and two musicians on stage led by choreographer Bui Ngoc Quan, Come On Feet seeks out the meeting between urban club culture and modern dance.

COOL Festival is honoured to welcome Detroit legend Marcellus Pittman to the programme. For nearly two decades, Marcellus has produced a catalogue of crazy grooves. The list of labels they released reads like a compendium of Detroit's major imprints: Omar-S's FXHE, Theo Parrish's Sound Signature, and Aaron Siegel's FIT Sound.

​

AliA's b2b at COOL Festival has become a classic to look forward to. Of all the rising stars in the ever-expanding DJ universe, AliA is the brightest of them all. In Belgium, she has built an established status in record time, despite all the misfortunes of you-know-what. These days, the Leuven-based musician regularly tours Europe with a record bag full of house, UK garage, breakbeat and jungle. Get ready for a hyper-eclectic set from the princess of the Belgian underground. 

After sessions with Mr Scruff and DTM Funk in the past, she will be joined this year by British rising star Shy One. Shy One is a resident DJ with BBZ and Touching Bass collectives who work for marginalised LGBTQI+ and POC communities in the British capital. Her usually eclectic sets are full of club sounds, hip-hop and jazz.

In short? A collaboration to mark on the timetable!
