Shotgun festival announces this year's lineup!
Czech festival summer is slowly entering its second half and many of you have undoubtedly yawned about the originality and fantasy of organizers. Come with us and experience a festival in a different way! A festival, that won´t bother you with how much does it all cost. A festival, whose originality of lineup, space and stage concept gain victory over conventional boring standards. A festival, that you simply won't forget anytime soon. Those, who've been there, know, how lovely the Kristýna camp is - in birch forest, with great swimming and adjacent festival area.
In comparison with last year, we have abandoned the three-stages-in-two-days model and prepared Friday's warm-up right on the beach, which will be handled by DJs Face, Milky, Jenny and Tomig performing breakbeat, nu-disco, deephouse and nujazz.
Then, in the right mood, we will open the gates of the festival in early Saturday's evening. The festival will be dominated by a big open stage whose genre will start at nu rave, breakbeat and electronics (Dyzlectic Division, KapSak and a concert of Midi Lidi) and during the course of the night will shift to true DnB drive. We're happy to welcome Dutch Suwu3, one of the most energetic live acts of current break beat, in the northern Bohemia. It wouldn't be a true DnB party without British scene representatives – released by RAM and Breakbeat Kaos, they are Dan and Phil aka Brookes Brothers. The stars of the evening will get support from local representatives (2K & Sweg, Peet, Skuban, Tomig Tactical, Pier and Ark).
The second stage will be hidden behind the curtains of a tent and will resound with novel techno sound. You can expect a big premiere in terms of a duel between half of Dutch Radial with Slovak butcher Boss! Another Slovak Dalo, hidden behind his project Loktibrada, and local favorite Spyro will present their own vision of techno. However, we won't rush techno to you from the very beginning. The initial set will be presented by Prague's duet Awacs & Monotype, a Slovak live act Raganova will perform a concert full of refined deep-electronics and who better should provide a dividing line between minimal and techno than Elektrabel live?
At six in the morning, the open air drum'n'bass stage will die away, but the tent won't. It will hold an atmosphere of a wonderful after party. At first, a common act of Diom and Click Joe under the name of DJs Can’t Dance, and later a never-ending deep-minimal-house drive performed by a concert of German producer Mod.Civil and a common DJ set of his fellow-countrymen Manamana. Mooris and Roman Rai will take care of musical background in the afternoon.
This year again, it's worth spending a whole weekend at Shotgun, so take advantage of Kristýna camp – www.hradek.cz/kristyna
