The attentive viewer could already have known: Angine de Poitrine is coming to Vlieland. The black-and-white-speckled math rock virus is spreading at lightning speed across the world, and will also make the Wadden Sea surge with its microtonal guitars and extraterrestrial time signatures. Jacob Alon - that other great promise - instead seeks stillness, with bittersweet folk-pop so personal it hurts.

We are also bracing ourselves for Prostitute and their fusion of noise and Arabic dance rhythms, and we are expanding our alt-country stable with Greg Freeman and Ryan Davis & the Roadhouse Band. For jazz lovers, there is Nyron Higor, all the way from Northeast Brazil, with a warm-blooded mix of ambient, folk, and jazzy arrangements.

So music from all corners of the world, but not all talent comes from far away. The deeply personal art-pop of Ghent-based Dressed Like Boys for example, or ‘Nederbelg’ Frans Kalf, whose poetic singer-songwriter songs move as easily as they unsettle. Antwerp rap luminary Yong Yello and boogie machine Lézard complete the Flemish delegation. Here we go, from A to Z:
