• 9th Feb 2011

Soundwave Festival Croatia is lauded by those in the know as Croatia’s best kept secret and THE must do under the radar festival on the European calendar, Organised and promoted by the UK’s most boundary pushing promoter collectives Soundcrash and New Bohemia, the festival showcases the most in-demand leftfield artists of our time all set on the Adriatic Coast in the beautiful 900 year old white wash walled Croatian fishing village of Petrcane.

Soundwave offers a wonderful alternative to the UK’s rain soaked festivals. Beach bars, boat parties, an outdoor Amphitheatre and nightclubs offer an array of all day entertainment. With Sunshine guaranteed Soundwave is the perfect combination of summer holiday and music festival all at a price cheaper than a train ticket to Glastonbury!

Soundwave Festival goers and artists alike come from far and wide to be part of the continuously progressive line up that always retains it’s unique spirit making it so special year in year out. This year is no exception. Soundwave are very proud to announce their next sonic offering- the multifaceted symphonic talents of Bonobo with full 9 piece live band (singer, keyboardist, guitarist, saxophonist, string section, electronics, and drummer).

Currently in the midst of an all encompassing European tour and with ‘Black Sands’ one of 2010’s most critically acclaimed albums under his belt, expect spiraling masterpieces combining oriental strings with cut-up beats and deep sub bass injected with smoky elegant vocals from the superbly talented Andreya Triana a solo artist in her own right who has recently been collaborating with the likes of Flying Lotus and Mr Scruff. Perfect Soundwave warped hazy Sun shimmer songs to send a rush up the spine.

Already confirmed for Soundwave are top heavy artists including the legendary Mr Roots Manuva, Swedish electro funksters Little Dragon, Floating Points, Zero 7, Hexstatic, Belleruche , Stuart McCallum (The Cinematic Orchestra), and many many more. (full line up so far is below).

Kick back and relax, listen to sound of the wind blowing through the trees, the Waves gently lapping on the beach as smiling people dance under the clear starry sky. Sun kissed days and balmy nights full to the brim of the best music, laughter with friends and an infectious familiar feeling from the heady days of hedonism from Ibiza’s infamous Summer’s of love and that is just the nighttimes. Soundwave by day, flower’s into a Sun Music worshiper’s paradise. A beautiful private beach, an array of superbly curated boat parties and outside Amphitheatre performances roll into an endless offering of sonic bedazzlements.
