With GLINTSAL, rapper/singer Glints and producer/dj FAISAL AKA joined forces for their first joint album that brings out the best in both of them.
Together the soul brothers with British and Moroccan backgrounds respectively have been presenting Abattoir Anvers, the only hip-hop show on Belgian national radio (Studio Brussel), for about 4 years. Both are members of the eponymous Antwerp collective Abattoir Anvers (which also includes Yong Yello, among others) that was founded in a former halal slaughterhouse where the gentlemen lived, worked and made radio. Back in 2020, the duo released their debut single “Some Time Alone” , which made it clear that their musical collaboration should also be explored further. So when the stars aligned (and their schedules allowed), they crawled straight into the studio, resulting in GLINTSAL 1: an album full of back-to-back bangers with influences ranging from Anderson .Paak and Dilla and all the way back to The Beatles, to Daft Punk. After conquering Eurosonic in January and being nominated for five MIA's, the duo is ready for the big festival stages.
