I rarely go to summer festivals nowadays bacause A) I hate big crowds of people, B) there´s usually too few good artists and a shitload of artists you don´t like, C) uneven weather conditions can seriously ruin your experience, D) very few bands actually sound good in the open air festivals (compared to club gigs) & D) I´m too old for that shit. Unusually I decided to go to local Flow festival next weekend for two days. I´ve always thought that this particular urban festival is a gathering of so called indie-electro hipsters and other miserable wannabes but for my surprise there´s a lot of interesting experimental acts playing this year (+ some urban ethnic stuff). So, I guess I have to comb my hair and go out to the real world this time. Here is a special mix (divided in two parts) presenting some of the artists and styles to be heard this year.
