Ahead of LEJEUNE CLUB’s rooftop takeover at The Standard, Brussels on June 20 for Fête de la Musique, we caught up with Krisy to talk about his upcoming album, creative freedom and the energy currently moving through Brussels.
I’m constantly creating in my own space, so from that perspective, I find it really exciting to offer the public a new project among all the ones that may never actually come out.
Personally, this album was challenging for one simple reason: it was entirely made with the people closest to me. After releasing my first album in 2023 and everything that followed, including performing at the Olympia in Paris in 2025, a lot of people expected me to collaborate with big names in the music industry, and that’s definitely a pressure I could feel. Despite that, I chose to make this project with my close circle, because to me, they are real human beings above all else.
Because I like to create meaning in what I do, it allows me to express who I am, what I love and what I want.
What excites me most about this city is how all these cultures come together without judgment. When you love discovering new things, you’re often pleasantly surprised.
Yes, music was, and still is our gateway into a much broader universe. I’m trying to carry out a vision I’ve built, but it’s definitely something that will take a few more years to be fully understood. Still, I’m already very grateful for how far we’ve come.
Because human beings need other human beings. No one and nothing is created alone, so why not come together and learn from one another? At the same time, when I was younger, I would have loved to experience movements like this. I think it’s important that the new generation also has access to moments like these, which could, without any pretension, inspire their future.
I grew up on Chaussée d’Anvers, just behind The Standard Hotel, in social housing. At no point could my younger self have imagined that one day he would be able to create this kind of event, alongside a well-known establishment in his own neighborhood. For that symbolic reason alone, I couldn’t have dreamed of a better meaning. I want to thank The Standard once again for allowing us to celebrate music, but also for offering what is, in many ways, one of the most beautiful gifts we could give to my inner child.
A relaxed atmosphere with high energy.
Because we don’t want to lose what made us: music. In everything we do, music holds an important place, just as it did from the very beginning, and that’s really not about to change.
It’s true that everything moves fast these days, but no one forces you to follow the trends. I create my own pace; I like taking the time to appreciate moments, for example. I don’t go out much either, I prefer to maintain a life that keeps me as far away from the noise as possible. I would have more regrets about not spending time with my grandmother than about not knowing the latest trend.
I hope they leave feeling like they had a good time because that’s the promise we would like to keep at all our events.
On June 20, LEJEUNE CLUB opens the summer rooftop season at The Standard, Brussels with a special Fête de la Musique open air above the city.
Sunset views, music, community and one of Brussels’ most influential creative collectives taking over the 29th floor for one night only.
