Tfb Invites Antilope

Always fascinated by electronic music, Antilope, whose real name is Balthazar Pinto, grew up in the 80s, in an era where music was synonymous with freedom and escape. Inspired from an early age by the captivating and mysterious worlds of fantasy, science fiction and cinema, artists such as Giorgio Moroder, Vangelis and Brian Eno awakened in him the soul of an artist-composer. It was by discovering the electronic vibrations of clubs in the early 90s that he felt the desire to broaden his musical spectrum and move towards eclectic sounds, merging different styles such as house, techno, trance, disco or even balearic.... Quickly, his musical singularity unfolds, highlighting a timelessness through the vinyls unearthed and collected over three decades. Each of his sets takes us on a journey into a parallel universe, where the border between reality and imagination blurs and where genres are mixed and approaches varied. A music lover and alchemist of sounds, Antilope is a storyteller of stories through which eras merge and where the cinematographic world emerges, with the sole aim of thrilling while captivating his audience. The archives of his past from the 80's and 90's mix with contemporary compositions and the result is a unique musical identity where each piece is selected with parsimony and where each transition is carefully thought out in order to reveal an authentic and timeless sound journey. Throughout his career, Antilope has distinguished himself as a resident DJ at the legendary Dirty Dancing and Mirage evenings, but also at Paradise City and Wecandance, two well-known festivals in Belgium and more widely in Europe. Event curator and co-producer of Astradanza evenings in Portugal, he was also co-founder of the Record Store Sono Ventura in Brussels.
