The open-air glass dome of the Olive Grove is the perfect place to try something different; these unique stage offerings push the boundaries of house and its many sub-genres, offering up a slew of artists on the fringe of musical norms.
Be it the Ballantine’s True Music stage on Thursday, delivering Afro house and Afro electronic excellence from the genre’s leaders including Atmos Blaq, Da Capo, Kanem, Kid Fonque, Kitty Amor, Sef Kombo and Sio.
Or Melvo Baptiste’s treasured The Remedy Project imprint on Friday, making connections with contemporary artists on the peripheries of soul, rare groove, funk, disco and house at every turn; Aroop Roy, Charlie Dark, Jamz Supernova, Millie Watts and T.Williams & Sio (Live) join the label boss himself.
Conducta’s Kiwi Rekords returns to the festival following its debut last year on the Saturday, bringing with it the sweet and sharp sound of new UKG and a host of fresh faces on the scene including Bklava, Ghoulish, MJ Cole, Sammy Virji, The Duke and head honcho Conducta. The last show of theirs before the label sadly says goodbye.
Then on Sunday, Defected’s Live Sessions stage brings together singer songwriters and refreshing live acts, with Ajoia, Ben Westbeech, Cor.Ece, Crazy P Soundsystem, Dames Brown, Girls of the Internet, JENA, Kanem, Might Delete Later, Rahh, and YOURS.
