Festivals
Alcatraz started out in 2008 as a small one-day indoor hardrock- and metalfestival in venue “Brielpoort” (Deinze, Belgium), but has since grown to be a large outdoor three day festival on domain “De Lange Munte” in Kortrijk (Belgium). This festival keeps on improving every single year, so be sure to check it out!

In the Netherlands, one can end the year with a last festival to prepare themselves for the new year. Eindhoven Metal Meeting is popular with those who like it a bit more rough, inviting many black and death metal bands on stage.

Go To Eleven is the collaborative name for three young freelance audio technicians & musicians. They aim to use their technical experience for more than simply amplifying or recording sound, and instead focus on helping the artist, the performance or the event impact an audience in the best possible way.
The result is tailor made sound – an experience designed by our artists and customers, with our help, both live and recorded.
So go to eleven, and level up your sound.
