The Find at Dour #1: The Introduction

The Find at Dour #1: The Introduction

After our Dour series last year, in collaboration with the Belgian festival we have decided to do a sequel this year. Why? Because the line-up is so damn good and because our magazine seamlessly fits with the festival. So even if you can’t go yourself, then this series will still be worth checking. Music, recommendations and, of course, new ‘finds’.

Music, recommendations and, of course, new ‘finds’.

In ‘The Find at Dour’ we’ll publish a variety of content prior to the festival. To warm you up if you are going to visit the festival, or to share good music if you don’t. Expect recommendations, news, thoughts on the line-up, a related Pick Of The Week and, above all, a contest to win free passe-partout tickets to the festival!!
