by

http://www.familypiknikfestival.com/opening2022

Nora en Pure, Hernan Cattaneo b2b Nick Warren, Colyn b2b Denis Horvat will headline this first Family Piknik 2022 event…

2022 will definitely be a new start for Family Piknik and it will begin on Sunday 31st July in the new avant-garde and unique decor of Lunel Arena, located only 20 minutes away from Grammont’s open park previously used as the festival’s playground. Central place in the city, close to the train station, Lunel’s Arena will start to dance with Family Piknik through a very attractive Opening event highlighting some of the best Deep-Progressive artists.

From 11am to midnight, colourful deco, human performances and pink flamingos will flag the mixes from Colyn and Denis Horvat, the Afterlife new champions, among the most creative artists of their generation, will deliver an exclusive and tremendous back-to-back next to the living legends of the Pro- gressive House scene, Hernan Cattaneo b2b Nick Warren. For three hours, for the first time in France, these two pioneers will share their exquisite musicality with us before giving way to the exquisite Nora en Pure, one of the most popular Deep-Progressive artists, monthly listened by almost 3 million per- sons each month. Very rare in France, she will be for sure one of the major attractions for this Opening event. The Family Piknik Music crew will also be highly involved around its sure players Tom Pooks, Joy Kitikonti and Pontias, with a particularly strong South American accent to be heard on that day. Indeed, asides from the Argentinian maestro Cattaneo, we will find his fellow citizen Who Else, new signature on the label, as well as two Mexican artists who have been under the spotlights since a few years, Theus Mago & Gabriel I.

No doubt, his line-up is meant to make even more waves on the ground, with sensual moves and magic emotions all around ! Tickets are already on sale for this really promising Opening Party, starting from 25€ only. Available on http://www.familypiknikfestival.com/opening2022

Unorthodox x Mandidextrous present The Queer’s Platinum Jubilee

Village Underground – 3rd June 2022

Both Unorthodox and Mandidextrous recognise the impact queer communities had when rave culture was founded in the 80s and how the scene of today has deviated form its roots, resulting in an environment unsuitable for the community, one that is often deemed ‘unsafe’ and suffers from ‘toxic masculinity’.

“Music is for everyone to enjoy, whatever the genre, without the fear of confrontation or judgment” says Nathan X, drag queen Drum and Bass DJ and founder of Unorthodox.

This will be Unorthodox’ biggest show to date. Since their inception in 2019, they have made waves in the industry, with recognition from major key players such as UKF, Mixmag, Hospital Records and are headed for a summer packed full of festival takeovers and their own stage at Tomorrowland, Belgium. Mandidextrous has similarly been making noise, fresh off the EQ50 mentorship program, with releases on UKF and RAM and a combined following of over 100k, they believe

“It’s time to shake things up in the D&B scene and provide a safe and inclusive place for everyone on the gender spectrum, to feel equal and accepted and to prove that there is space for us not only on the dance floor but in the industry too”.

Unorthodox and Mandidextrous team up to bring ‘The Queer’s Platinum Jubilee’ on the jubilee itself! The night brings together queer acts from across the drum and bass scene. IMANU, bi-sexual DJ from the Netherlands, will headline the Village Underground date; the legendary John B joins the bill as well as award winning Scottish DJ, Mrs Magoo. Chickaboo, the first ever woman to MC over Drum and Bass, hosts the show alongside Plymouth’s Maddy V and electrifying drag MC, Bennitrate. Other Unorthodox residents join the line up, acting as glue to pull this ground-breaking, queer-focused, diverse line up together. On top of this immense line up, the full family of Unorthodox queens and performers will bring the show to life alongside an immersive production experience.
