BelDUB Team

Part-time music reporter Andreas Peeters (°1984) has been documenting the early days of the Belgian soundsystems since 2009. After a few years of making videos with distorted audio, he met cameraman Gieljan Van Goethem. Together they created the BelDUB documentary, which was screened for the first time march 2015 and broadcasted on the channel Op Acht in the summer of 2016. In the years after the release, Andreas kept doing interviews and event reports. In 2019, he teamed up with the one-man video and photography powerhouse Doryan Rosario. Together they decided to gather a crew of reggae-minded reporters and create the very platform you’re looking at. Andreas took up the role of head editor. Andreas is also one of the founding members of Tempest Soundsystem, where he goes by the name of selector Roots Apostle.

At a young age, Doryan Rosario (°1996) developed a passion for music photography and videos. As a student, he provided many aspiring hip-hop artists with a music video.Somewhere on the road, he picked up the love for dub music in general and soundsystems in particular. 8 years ago, he started making event video’s of soundsystem sessions.
