EXIT FESTIVAL 2011 – WOW! WHAT AN AMAZING YEAR, 2012 TICKETS ONSALE NOW!

Renowned for its unique fortress location and unbeatable atmosphere, EXIT Festival 2011 was yet again an amazing festival experience for thousands of music loving party-goers from around the world!

Taking place from 7th to 10th July with 4 days of hot Serbian sunshine reaching temperatures of 30 degrees and endless blue skies, EXIT was the perfect festival holiday destination. By day – spending time leisurely cafe hopping in the picturesque city of Novi Sad, or splashing around in the River Danube on the beach at the EXIT Village to keep cool. And by night - over 45,000 people partied at the festival to see headline artists such as; Arcade Fire, Pulp. Editors, M.I.A, Santigold, Portishead and Grinderman. Saturday was sold out for Jamiroquai’s show and the festival celebrated its 2 millionth visitor! 

Wowing the crowds, Editors were ecstatic – “We went up to the festival as punters the day before our show and felt it was the most fantastic place to watch live music. When we finally played the following night, the crowd, the view and the atmosphere were even more perfect. Exit is a special place!” 

While the legendary Dance Arena once again proved why it is one of the best in the world for electronic music fans with its incredible energy and an awe inspiring backdrop set in the moat of the 17th Century fortress walls. Artists such as Underworld, Deadmau5, Groove Armada, Fedde le Grand, DJ Sneak had the 20,000 strong crowd in the palm of their hands and sunrise was the perfect setting for the likes of Joris Voorn, Better Lost than Stupid, Rebel Rave and local hero’s Marco Nastic, Dejan Milicevic and Marko Miloslajvevic closing set. 

“EXIT for me was, from start to finish, the perfect festival. I’ve always heard so much about it, always wanted to play there to see what it was like for myself, if it really lived up to all the hype. It was just one of the most enjoyable sets I’ve played personally as a DJ and as a music fan myself, the atmosphere was among the best in the world and the vibe and venue, they were something really unique that I haven’t experienced anywhere else. Hands down, one of my top 10 experiences so far, without a doubt”. Fedde le Grand 

With 20 stages of various musical genres the atmosphere throughout was telling – there was even a zip line running through the night, a 3D stage and the view from the VIP terrace was breathtaking. But it would not be anything without the unique energy that is you – the festival go-ers! Hands down to you! Exit 2011 was indeed a truly inspiring event!! 

Leading international TV channels were there to capture the essence of the festival that has been deemed one of the best in the world! Airing soon, more info to be released, be sure to catch it.

M.I.A, Bad Religion and more for Exit Festival 2011

m.i.aGiving the boys a run for their money on the Main Stage – M.I.A. will be bringing some girl power to EXIT. British artist M.I.A. will perform on Friday 8th July. Renowned for her eclectic compositions combing elements of hip-hop, electronica, dance, alternative and world music M.I.A is back and as incendiary and forward thinking as ever. After two hugely acclaimed albums 2005’s ‘Arular’ and 2007’s ‘Kala’, the global success of Paper Planes, Oscar nominations, and that Grammys performance, M.I.A returned to form with last years release ‘// / Y /’ Recorded in Los Angeles, the album features production from Rusko, Diplo, Blaqstarr and Switch, a collaboration resulting in dubstep bass and grinding industrial noise being added to MIA’s unique armoury of sounds. ‘// / Y /’ draws influence from our technologically changing world, now that our every thought and action is documented and posted for everyone to see. The album is an uncensored screen-grab of 2010 and fans can experience this new material live at EXIT.

Bad Religion will also play the Main Stage. Known for their soaring 3 part vocal harmonies, sophisticated and intellectual lyrics, including political and religious commentary, Bad Religion are considered one of the most successful independent punk acts, selling over 5 million albums worldwide. The band have released 15 studio albums, and achieved their greatest success with their 1994 album ‘Stranger Than Fiction’, which obtained gold status in the US. The same album also spawned their well known hits “21st Century (Digital Boy)” and “Infected”. In the 32 years since its inception, Bad Religion has had numerous lineup changes, and vocalist Greg Graffin has been the only constant member, although the band currently features three of the original members who will bring some hardcore, punk rock mayhem for a high voltage performance the fortress. EXIT loves to rock!
 
Meanwhile in the legendary Dance Arena, Groove Armada will be unveiling their new Red Light ‘Decks & FX’ show on Saturday 9th July. Over the past decade Groove Armada have become one of the most loved and biggest selling dance acts on the planet. They enjoyed huge success during their career so far with their second album ‘Vertigo’ released in 1999 reaching platinum sales in the UK and the follow up ‘Goodbye Country: Hello Nightclub’ going Gold in 2001 with the single “Superstylin” also being nominated for a Grammy. 2010 saw ‘Black Light’, their 6th studio album reaching critical acclaim and a Grammy Nomination for Best Electronic Album and 2011 now sees the duo opening a new and exciting chapter of their musical life. Festival favourites Andy Cato and Tom Findlay are back behind the decks to wow crowds once again with their new project Red Light. Expect the unexpected.
 
To end Saturday night’s proceedings in style will be Better Lost Than Stupid aka Martin Buttrich, Davide Squillace and Matthias Tanzmann. Each individually known for their contributions to the house and techno scene, together they are setting decks alight worldwide. From Circo Loco parties in Ibiza to poolside parties in Miami, and now to Exit Festival for Saturday’s infamous Dance Arena closing set. This going to be one hell of a closing set bordering on chaoscrazysexyfunnycoolamazinglywickedlyincredible and we just can’t wait! Also introducing the young lady on everyone’s lips, Maya Jane Coles is one of the scene’s most talented and up and coming artists in electronic music. Her forthcoming EPs on Mobilee Records, her ability to create songs and not just music for dancefloors will no doubt elevate her status even further. A bright talent with more than a couple of strings to her bow Maya Jane Coles is only just getting started. Another fresh talent for Exit will be Union who will be starting the proceedings on Sunday with their unique take on ‘crunkstep’ along with a selection of tunes that nods towards 2ManyDjs inimitable style. Taking the UK by large, rocking dancefloors and festival alike, all whilst leaving a trail of aural destruction behind them. Miss them at your peril.

Jamiroquai, House of Pain, Kreator and more for Exit Festival 2011

jamiroquaiExit Festival are delighted to announce British acid jazz funk supremo Jamiroquai to play the Main Stage. The band needs little introduction, having sold over 25million albums worldwide, a Grammy Award in 1997, released seven albums, half of those reaching the #1 coveted spot, 13 Brit Awards nominations and with the best hat collection in the world, Jamiroquai – acclaimed, era-defying and one of the greatest live bands around – are back. The blistering, poetic, meaty, reflective and inspiring new album ‘Rock Dust Light Star’ is the result of two years work and clearly emphasises a new lease of life in Jay Kay and his band of time-served musician-teammates. This will be a truly electric performance.

Also performing on the Main Stage are House of Pain who celebrate their 20th anniversary, having changed the face of hip-hop with their self titled debut album, going multi-platinum and launching one of the most memorable songs in hip-hop history ‘Jump Around’, it’s the start of a new decade. They will be bringing their fiery live show and reclaiming the throne as hip-hop’s best and celebrating what has allowed their successes over the past 20 year – the fans.

Exit has 20 stages and for metal fans, the Explosive stage plays host to one of the most prominent European thrash metal band, Kreator. For almost thirty years now, Kreator has been holding a high position in thrash metal scene, sharing it with such bands as Slayer, Metallica and Megadeath. With as many as twelve studio albums, the uncompromising front man Mille Petrozza is the most die-hard metal fans icon, stout-heartedly points his finger to the problems in society, addressing political injustices old-root metal style. The Fusion stage adds Go Back to the Zoo aka GBTTZ who are an indie pop rock outfit hailing from The Netherlands most recognizable from their single ‘Beam Me Up’ that was used by Nike for a worldwide ad campaign. Since then the band have released their debut album ‘Benny Bisto’ and are set to play the Fusion stage with boundless energy and quirky Dutch humour no doubt. Definitely a band to keep an eye on.

2011 will also see pre and post EXIT events happening in the city of Novi Sad and Belgrade, so festival go-ers can spend longer in Serbia experiencing the warmth of the Serbian people whilst having fun and seeing new sights and cities. It’s an adventure and festival in one! No mud and lots of wonderful experiences, it’s a golden ticket for summer 2011.

Underworld and Beirut added to Exit Festival 2011 lineup

Pioneers of electronic music Underworld will also grace Exit Festival this year with their incredible live show. With now nine albums under their belt, their most recent ‘Barking’ is a thundering return to form after a three year hiatus and sees the band perform a feat of creative regeneration once again. They are the undisputed masters of an insane electronic live show that will make your skin tingle with sheer delight. Karl Hyde’s energetic and infectious performance, wrapped in all his intense glory will be a truly magnificent sight to behold within the 17th Century Fortress.
 
Beirut is the perfect band for those craving something completely different.  Fusing elements of Balkan folk, French chanson, and American indie, principle songwriter and singer Zach Condon fills out classically structured pop songs with charming ukulele, flugelhorn, and accordion.  Condon’s exotic takes on music are strongly influenced by the beauty and sounds of places he’s traveled to, evoking memories, warmth, longing, and inevitably, joy. His first album ‘Gulag Orkestar’ was made single-handedly and to critical acclaim, followed by the massively successful Flying Club Cup, and most recently the double EP ‘March of the Zapotec/Holland’. The band’s live sets are equally as breathtaking to watch as they are to listen to, and it’s the Fusion stage that has the pleasure of hosting them.

More acts announced for Exit Festival 2011

grinderman exit festival 2011Grinderman  will be electrifying the fortress with their growling formidable rock beast of a band! Formed by the suave Nick Cave and featuring the members of The Bad Seeds but ‘badder’, we expect no less than a rampage of strutting and swaggering “mixing horror and black humour with barely tamed musical malevolence” (The Guardian, September 2010).

Through the cobbled streets and into to the Dance Arena, Fedde Le Grand will put his hands up for his first ever performance at Exit Festival. DJ and producer extraordinaire, the Dutch deckmanship is set to set alight the moat with his variety of underground, credible and chart topping tracks with a few classics thrown in for good measure. Another young Dutchman will be performing on the Dance Arena this year in the form of Joris Voorn. Having sealed his place as techno glitterati many moons ago, his production is in every top djs’ record box and he will be bringing his fresh techno,

joachim garraud

 breaks and house sound to the arena. Whilst the Grammy award nominee Frenchman Joachim Garraud will be performing his Invasion show, and

 if you’ve seen clips already on youtube you will see how much fun it is. Joachim has produced for the finest DJs such as David Guetta, Deep Dish, Moby and even Kylie so you can be sure his show will be nothing short of spectacular. They will be joining already announced Tiga, James Zabiela, and Gramophonedzie. We certainly can’t wait!

Portishead confirmed for Exit Festival 2011

Named after Geoff Barrow’s hometown, Portishead consists of Barrow, Beth Gibbons and Adrian Utley and are widely known as the purveyors of trip-hop which is resounding in their three albums, most recognizable from their 1994 debut Mercury Music Prize album Dummy which set the bar of many imitators over the years. This album not only distanced themselves from the dominant Brit-pop sound of the time with hit singles Glory Box and Sour Times, but equally pushed the trip-hop sound with their soon to be trademark elements of cool jazz, acid house and atmospheric dark beats. Gibbon’s irresistibly melancholic, yet enchanting voice created aesthetics a far cry from anything that was trendy. Completely unexpectedly, this album was a great commercial success hailed by both critics and audiences alike, resulting in winning the prestigious Mercury Music Prize.

1997 saw the release of their second album Portishead with the single All Mine, and after the release of their live album recorded with New York Philharmonics the next year, they retreated, remaining low-key until the end of 2008. Very few bands have the ability to release a come-back album after ten years and make it loved by critics and audiences again, yet in April 2008, Portishead released their third album, aptly named Third. Once again their wide appeal was proved with great ratings by all the discerning music media, even with the media shy band members. NME rated the album 9/10, trend-setting Pitchfork labeled it one of the best albums of the year, and Thom Yorke deemed it ‘beautiful’ and ‘the best album in their career’.

Portishead are evidently as influential to their peers are they are to their fans, recently inspiring The Horrors and curating All Tomorrow’s Parties in London. Their fourth album is set to be released in 2011, again no doubt pushing new boundaries. Their performance at EXIT is eagerly awaited and will be sure to send a wonderous energy throughout the night!

EXIT 2011 also plays host to over 400 performances on 20 stages connected by cobbled streets, ramparts and tunnels – a walk through the mystical fortress is like a trip through a magical wonderland. Music ranges from rock, dance, indie, Latino, reggae, electronica, chill out and regional music, so there is no better festival in the world that brings you so much value and so much variety! EXIT is still the coolest, most adventurous and best value for money festival experience in Europe for the discerning festival goer. Offering more entertainment, easier and cheaper travel options, stunning weather and an atmosphere unlike any other festival, ensure it’s on your list of things to do 2011!

2011 will also see pre & post EXIT events happening in the city of Novi Sad and Belgrade, so festival go-ers can spend longer in Serbia experiencing the warmth of the Serbian people whilst having fun and seeing new sights and cities. It’s an adventure and festival in one!

EXIT also understands the financial situation is still difficult for many and students more-so than ever before and therefore are keeping the ticket prices as low as possible this year. The First Release tickets are still cheaper than any UK festival at only £89+b/f but there is a capped number of them. Once the first release are all sold out, from then on Second Release ticket price will rise to £105, so buy tickets early and save 15%! Still it’s a bargain and for sunshine, no mud and lots of wonderful experiences, it’s a golden ticket for summer 2011. EXIT ticks all the right boxes and is still the best value festival ticket around!
