All the music was recorded and mixed at Soulwax’s new Deewee studio HQ in Ghent, where every release is mixed and produced (and sometime written and recorded) by Stephen and David Dewaele. The entire project has been over twelve months in the making. Belgica - has also been confirmed as an entrant at the prestigious Sundance Film Festival in January.
