When he's not presenting his monthly slot on NTS radio, Ziggy Devriendt aka Nosedrip digs deep for forgotten Belgian music to reissue on his archive label Stroom. Founded in 2016 as a sub-label of Ghent's Music Mania, his Ostend based operation has also focused on the works of international artists such as Latvian synth duo NSRD, Japanese singer Sonoko, the Scottish new wave outfit Vazz, and more.
