Sdban Records Welcoming home for cutting edge Belgian jazz cats and forgotten treasures from the past. Sdban Records is an independent record label, obsessed with grooves.

It is the youngest member of the N.E.W.S. Records family, based in Ghent, Belgium. The label started off as a sixties and seventies compilation and reissue label, with label boss Stefaan Vandenberghe’s impressive personal vinyl collection at its core. The very first release was a milestone right away. The acclaimed ’Funky Chicken: Belgian grooves from the seventies’ compiled the best funk tracks f

rom the Belgian Seventies, a genre and era overlooked by many. The label also released reissues and retrospective compilations from the likes of André Brasseur and Koen De Bruyne. After two years of digging dusty crates, SDBAN broadens its horizon and starts focusing on contemporary talent as well. SDBAN Ultra is the sister label focusing on today’s lively jazz and funk scene, which is simply too exciting not to be explored.

Sdban Records is proud to announce the first official reissue of Coal Mining, the 1978 debut album by Dutch jazz pianist Rene van Helsdingen. With this debut, van Helsdingen set the tone for a decades-spanning and self-directed career in jazz.

Often mistakenly referred to as Piano, a result of the album’s back cover design prominently featuring the word, Coal Mining is both a literal and symbolic title. It alludes not only to van Helsdingen’s brief academic past in mining engineering, but also to the depth and labor of jazz creation itself: layered, gritty, and forged under pressure.

Now reissued for the first time, nearly five decades later. Available via Sdban Records on September 26, 2025.

After two albums inspired by vast northern landscapes, the forces of nature, and an ever-present sense of duality, Glass Museum shifts gears. The Brussels-based group—originally formed in 2016 by pianist Antoine Flipo and drummer Martin Grégoire—welcomes bassist Issam Labbene as an official third member, opening up a richer, more immersive sound and setting its sights on the rhythms of the modern city. 🏢
