Europe’s newest and most cultured underground festival announces another irresistible list of names including Tobi Neumann, Paco Osuna, Gene on Earth, East End Dubs, Boris Werner, Butch, Joey Daniel, Josh Baker, Andy Baxter, Michel Cleis, Ilario Alicante, Jamie Roy and many more on top of the first wave such as Ricardo Villalobos, Cristi Cons, Seth Troxler, Rhadoo, Raresh, Priku and tens more. They are amongst the 90 artists who play the extended festival from Wednesday 1st – Monday 6th June in a gorgeously natural and uncommercialised corner of Europe on the Albanian Riviera. Head to unumfestival.com for full details and ticket info.

UNUM is a close-knit, tastefully curated musical hideaway between sweet smelling pine forests, sweeping sun kissed beaches and set against a dramatic mountainous backdrop. The music plays out over three very different stages all with their own unique look and sound and the most iconic of them all is the Pines Stage, where DJs play 24 hours a day. 

That means dancers are treated to spine-tingling sunset sessions as the sun fades away between the trees, and then epic sunrises as the pines are backlit by a glorious ball of fire to start a new day. This makes it one of the most special and atmospheric places to party in all of Europe for those who like classy house and techno.

And there is plenty of that once again in this third year with tasteful hosts including After Caposile, Deset, Half Baked, Outcast, Secret Society, Trommel, Watermelon, You&Me and Zone who will all bring their own know-how and seductive sounds.

The latest wave of names to be playing include techno mainstays Tobi Neumann and Paco Osuna, red hot new school house, brakes and electro innovator Gene on Earth plus tech house titans from across Europe including East End Dubs, Boris Werner, Butch, Joey Daniel, Josh Baker, Andy Baxter, Ilario Alicante, Jamie Roy and many more.

The scene is now set for what will once again be the most boutique and music-centric house and techno gathering in a truly blissful location.

LOCUS Festival set to bring biggest D&B lineup to Tulum for the first time ever

by

Tickets: https://www.ticketfairy.com/event/locus-tulum-2022/
Location: Tulum, Mexico
Date: 7th – 10th April

All roads lead to Tulum, Mexico, from Thursday 7 to Sunday 10 April 2022, where the biggest Drum ‘n’ Bass artist line-up that North & South America has ever seen will assemble itself for the LOCUS festival, the first event of its kind for bass heads in a place where House and Techno reign supreme.

LOCUS Tulum 2022 is a 4-day Drum ‘n’ Bass experience in paradise, surrounded by sunbeds and palm trees at Tulum’s iconic Mia Beach Club from Thursday to Saturday, with the Sunday night taking place at an undisclosed location deep into the early hours of Monday morning.

Festivities kick off with Brazilian Drum ‘n’ Bass legend DJ Marky, DBridge of Exit Records and Bad Company fame, masters of Autonomic soundscapes Instra:mental, and purveyor of dub vibes Breakage, who are joined by one of the UK’s rising stars, Harriet Jaxxon, and Rohaan, one of the hottest producer talents in the scene today, alongside Mexican stalwarts Isaac Maya and Viewer.

LOCUS is the landmark event for electronic music enthusiasts in North and South America to journey to Mexico and witness history in the making, all within the stunning backdrops of Tulum, with a line-up that represents the past, present, and future of Drum ‘n’ Bass.

Day 2 brings the godfathers of Jungle and Drum ‘n’ Bass, Fabio & Grooverider, hot off the incredible success of their recent Outlook Orchestra performance, complemented by the likes of Dub Phizix & Strategy, who will bring their distinct Mancunian DnB flavors; Submotive, who’s been making waves with his new Subjective collaboration with Goldie; Kolya, Dave Owen, NYC’s DJ Strife, and homegrown Mexican DnB talent, Mukiyare.

Day 3 gets even more ridiculous with a rare set from Hospital Records boss, London Elektricity; an exclusive Black Science Labs set from TeeBee in his first solo set in almost a decade; the champions of hyper-coloured Liquid Drum ‘n’ Bass, Etherwood and Technimatic; a live PA from PAV4N of Foreign Beggars fame; 1985 Music’s French Drum ‘n’ Bass dons Visages; Submorphics; and Metalheadz wonderkid Kid Drama, all set to bring their magic to the beach.

Day 4, which will be held at an undisclosed location, will see Workforce, who was a part of the eclectic Spectrasoul duo; Commix, who has been responsible for making some of the biggest tunes in Drum ‘n’ Bass; the maestro of dark DnB arts, Loxy; the great purveyor of intelligent and deep DnB, Klute; Swedish virtuoso Seba; Critical Music’s Sam Binga; and one of America’s finest duos, Quadrant & Iris, slated to lure the deepest, grittiest and grimiest bass frequencies into Tulum to close the festival in style.

This epic line up will be supported by some of the genre’s most treasured hosts like Degs, Dynamite MC, Jakes, MC Dino, MC Fava, MC GQ, MC LowQui, SP:MC, and Stamina MC.

Over the years, bass music festivals like Outlook and Hospitality On The Beach have taken the initiative of hosting grand line-ups around the best waterfronts in Europe and, thanks to its meticulously curated experience, LOCUS is now all set to bring this experience to North & South America for the first time ever.

With incredible views of the crystal-clear blue sea, and the Mexican jungle in sight nearby, LOCUS promises to be an experience of a lifetime. Day passes are priced at $100, while full 4-day festival passes are available at just $300 HERE. Travel, transfer and accommodation packages are also available to suit all budgets, including for backpackers.

Rapture Festival Returns to Virginia Key Beach Park & Announces Phase 1 Line up – Bedouin, Monolink & Sabo & Goldcap

by

The legendary event returns to Miami Music Week as the weeks only beach party

https://www.rapturefestivals.com

https://www.instagram.com/rapture_festival

On Friday, March 25th, Rapture Festival returns as the one and only daytime beach festival during this year’s Miami Music Week. This artful coming together of art, music, wellness and nature takes place on the stunning Virginia Key Beach Park with a world class line-up. There will be Miami exclusive sets from Monolink and Sabo & Goldcap, while Bedouin also play with more names to come, plus plenty of extra fun including water sports, mindfulness and an environmental workshop. Capacity for this life-enriching, soul-warming party are limited so get yours now from https://www.rapturefestivals.com. 

Rapture Festival is making a triumphant return against all odds, which is sure to please fans who thought the much loved festival might never make a comeback after the pandemic. But once again this year it will bring together music, art and wellness with a real focus on environmental awareness and preservation. In previous years the festival has been widely praised by global media as a tasteful getaway during the madness of Miami Music Week and is famous for its warm, friendly atmosphere and cultured approach. It is also the only true beachfront music experience of the whole week amongst the usual selection of hot clubs and dark warehouses. To dance on the beach, though, takes you into a wholly different musical dimension.

This year once again Rapture will promote a healthy and spiritual lifestyle with yoga, healing, meditation therapy and more in a full Wellness centre with an environmental workshop plus drum circle and live performances. You can also look forward to an evocative mix of artists making live art and promoting multi-cultural and historical themes. Importantly, it all kicks off at midday right with access to the beach so is a perfect chance to get your swimwear on, try some paddle boarding and various other water sports as well as dance with the sand between your toes and frolic in the sea all afternoon as the music plays.

The truly unique location for this cultural gathering is Virginia Key Beach Park, a blissful nature reserve that was formed in 1896 at the same time as the state of Miami itself. It is a barrier island park with expansive wetlands, scenic beaches and sweeping views of the bay, all with the Atlantic breaking on the beach. Add in a sure to be special sunset that will add an extra scintillating atmosphere to the music and you have the best possible party at this year’s Miami Music week.

Proving the perfectly fitting soundtrack, German live-act, singer-songwriter and producer Monolink will play an exclusive show that will fuse ambient, electronica, techno and house into a mesmeric soundtrack on the beach. The artist is a master of his craft and his 2021 album Under Darkening Skies was the latest proof of that so expect to hear plenty from it. Then Bedouin will bring their famously shamanic desert house sounds, American duo Sabo & Goldcap are famed for their huge Desert Sunrise remix of Sting’s ‘Desert Rose’ and for their always much talked about and iconic sets at Desert Sunrise, which have been viewed online millions of times. Expect them to bring their always warm and tropical grooves with many more names to come.

Rapture Festival is a perfect escape and carefully considered tonic that will uplift and inform mind, body and spirit in these troubled times.

Stories In The Park Announces Epic Return For 2022

by

Andy C, Sub Focus, Flava D, Mason Collective, Big Miz, Friend Within, Salute & more taking over Palmer Park in June

Stories In The Park is all set to return to Reading’s Palmer Park for a third superb edition on Saturday June 18th. After Chase & Status headlined a huge sell-out year in 2021, Stories is back in 2022, once again boasting two stages of the most cutting edge international DJs from the worlds of drum & bass, bassline, garage, house and techno, this year’s headliners include Andy C, Sub Focus, Flava D, TS7, Mason Collective, Big Miz, Friend Within, Salute and more to come. This year is already set to be another sell-out year and tickets are on sale now, starting at just £20 and available here: https://fatso.ma/Vxzw.

This proudly independent festival has made a huge impact in a short space of time. The first two editions set a high standard, with a real focus on high end production, loud and proud sound systems and line-ups that offered something fresh for the region. The two high-spec stages have their own carefully considered look, sound and feel, with one covering drum & bass and baseline, and the other delving into the worlds of house and techno.

This year, 5000 people will roll into Palmer Park, a historic green space in the city surrounded by trees and with plenty of freedom to roam. As well as the two stages of music, a wealth of street food vendors and plenty of well stocked bars will be on site to keep you fuelled across the weekend. The festival comes from an experienced team of promoters who run seven weekly club nights and over 40 one off events every year, so there is nothing they don’t know about putting on edgy, exciting parties for young and hedonistic music lovers.

Says the Director, Toby Mullins, “This is just the beginning for Reading’s brand new festival, Stories In The Park. We have plans to take it to the highest possible level and deliver the biggest live acts and DJs in the world.”

That rings true with this year’s line-up which features Ram Records boss Andy C, DnB heavyweight Sub Focus, the queen of all things bass Flava D, plus UK chart topper Nathan Dawe who is best known for his 2020 hit “Lighter” featuring KSI.
