About this event
ECHT! (BEL) + special guest Haztet takes place on Friday, 27 November 2026 at The Vanguard, Newtown.
- 18+ only
Since 2017, ECHT! has been igniting stages across Europe, from Nuits Sonores, Lowlands, and Dour Festival to iconic venues like Brussels’ Ancienne Belgique and London’s Jazz Café. The Brussels-based quartet thrives on precision and chemistry: four minds and eight hands working as one. Their instrumental music raises more questions than it answers, pulling listeners into hypnotic, trance-like states where rhythm and melody merge, making individual instruments almost unrecognizable.

After their groundbreaking debut EP Douf (2019) and acclaimed albums INWANE (2021) and Sink-Along (2023), ECHT! is back with their most daring release yet: Boilerism. On this new record, they push beyond their signature bass-heavy sound, exploring faster tempos and embracing genres like acid, drum’n’bass, footwork, and UK garage. While the grooves hit harder and the rhythms get more mechanical, their flair for the unpredictable remains, with tracks that twist, turn, and surprise at every moment.
Joining ECHT! are Eora/Sydney, based spiritual jazz / improvised groove collective HAZTET. HAZTET explores a cosmic vastitude of dense sonic realms, guided continuously by the rich, bountiful osmosis of improvised collaborative experimentation. Profoundly inspired by the music of luminaries Mulatu Astatke, Pharoah Sanders, Joe Henderson and John Coltrane as well as oz legends Barney McAll, Julien Wilson, Close Counters and 30/70, audiences can expect vibrant jazz harmony, percussion driven Afro-infused dance grooves and layered ambient SFX soundscapes.
