After a period of silence, the digital TV platform Evilpenguin is announcing its return to the forefront. And how: the platform is not only completely redesigned, but is now also completely free. With one of the most diverse online catalogs, it presents a unique showcase of collaborations with leading orchestras, ensembles and artists from across Europe.
Evilpenguin remains an independent digital platform that, in addition to the Belgian arts sector, is also taking on an increasingly international profile. In doing so, it operates as an equivalent and complementary brand alongside the renowned boutique label Evil Penguin Classic.

New: Evil Penguin Concerts: Summertime!
As the cherry on the cake, Evilpenguin is launching a new initiative: Evil Penguin Concerts, a seasonal series of intimate concerts. The first edition, Summertime!, takes place in late August at the label's home base: the MotorMusic Studio in Mechelen.
This legendary recording studio, where countless albums came into existence, combines high-tech flair with a Berlin character and compelling conviviality. Artists from the Evil Penguin Classic and Antarctica Records labels bring live music to the place where craftsmanship and creativity come together.
A concert from Evil Penguin Concerts is more than just a performance. The audience literally sits in the midst of the professional studio setup, experiences the music from the front row and meets the musicians afterwards. Furthermore, you get a unique behind-the-scenes look at a live television recording, which can be viewed in full later on Evilpenguin TV.
