Crème Solaire
Crème Solaire: from electro-punk to explosive effects. Crème Solaire was born out of Gustav's first lever. This springboard and the development of various artistic projects allow the creation of numerous contacts in the ecosystem of current Swiss musics.
This prompts the group to develop the project in the four national languages and to perform in all regions of the country, on very different scenes (from Paléo to Muzzano). Since 2018, the duo has been performing in Switzerland and Europe, always exuding hope to shout about.
A performance and musical project thirsting for freedom, anger, love and rebellion. In a strange and intense universe, this group composed of Rebecca Solari and Pascal Stoll composes, shares, plays, resonates new heads and new stories.

Volcano by Moltobene
Volcano is a spectacle ready to explode into an acrobatic eruption, a musical shock, or perhaps just a puff of words. It glides like gentle lava through the Park's narrow streets, scorching the meadows and illuminating the woods.
Then he sings, plays with balance, loses control and finds it in the eyes of those who pass by. Volcano are three lapilli, three smoke sellers, three matches eager to light: they play, they twirl, they shout, they somersault, they sing, they tell you the future. Back and forth, red as fire!

Slips experience by Okidok
Billy and Piotre have dreamy, celebrity bodies. Muscular, elegant, skilled, witty and fully aware of all their incredible qualities, they embark on a grand display of their talents. And God knows how wide their range is.
Talent in its purest form, the cream of acrobatics, the foie gras of mime, the lard of dance, in short the raw poetry of the great music hall years. An hour of laughter, without words, with double the nothingness.

The Music ofSturba / voice, violin, theremin, electronics, toys, loop station
In her original and colorful set, the multi-instrumentalist plucks strings, pushes buttons and
turns knobs. With his little blue box he adds and multiplies sounds, and little parallel worlds are created, in which dulcet voices mingle with theremins, yellow pigs become singers and melancholy sweet songs sink into abysses of noise. On this occasion, together with Giuseppe Franchellucci on cello and Matteo Lenzi on percussion and drum pad, he will present some songs from his new album "The Strange Things."

WaqWaq Kingdom
WaqWaq Kingdom's broad spectrum of stylistic adventures sees them drawing lines between traditional Japanese and contemporary electronica, between Jamaican dancehall and 8-bit technology, between African polyrhythms and experimental music, with much else helping to color a powerful and vibrant palette. "Dokkoisho" is a Japanese word, an informal intercourse roughly equivalent to the deep sigh in sitting down after a long day's work.
"Like telling yourself I'm tired but I'll relax now and then continue," Kiki writes. "It is used in daily life and also to shout in sumo competitions and Kabuki. It has the meaning that you will continue constantly. It almost contains the meaning of encouragement." Perseverance and self-reliance are common themes for WaqWaq Kingdom, and Dokkoisho's music reflects this strand of determination and inner strength. Beginning with the multicolored island vibes of "Don't Be Zombie," which turns into a hyper-speed acid trip of happiness, the entire EP overflows with light and life. The opening single "Positive Sound," and its lyrical key "gimme gimme gimme freedom / I'm the queen of my kingdom," captures with joyful immediacy the closest the WaqWaq Kingdom has ever come to pop music. "Mr Two Face" pushes back to the dance floor, screwing and soaring with an exhilarating pulse before unexpectedly spinning into an extended, dreamy, ambient conclusion.
Dokkoisho also features the extraordinary skills of Italian exploratory percussionist Andrea Belfi and Iida Kazuhisa, drummer for Seefeel and Boredoms. Shigeru Ishihara, aka DJ Scotch Egg, has been a distinctive alien orbiting the dance music galaxy for over a decade, releasing radiant and unpredictable solo records through the legendary and now defunct experimental label Load Records, and performing as a member of the British post-rock band Seefeel.
Singer and lyricist Kiki Hitomi was formerly a member of King Midas Sound (along with The Bug and Roger Robinson) and co-founder of the iconic Japanese dubstep-noise duo Dokkebi Q. She is also a celebrated illustrator and designer, having created artwork for countless record covers and labels. Kiki created the vibrantly flamboyant artwork for Dokkoisho.

Degurutieni is a one man band. Each performance is like a kaleidoscope, always changing, mostly exotic, with a few industrial elements, a dash of cabaret, a variety act, perhaps ... but always with lyrics, collected, scored, told and retold like those of a poet.
What began as a solo project sometimes mutated to include band members and resulted in numerous collaborations with talented artists from Europe, the US, Thailand, Morocco or Russia and more...

Lálla Beau
Lálla Beau is a compelling psychedelic-noise post-wave explosion that immerses us in the meanderings of its organic synths as much as it transports us into a deflagration of rhythms all with attention to detail, accompanied by multilingual lyrics that will stay in our minds for days on end.
Born in 2021 on a carte blanche at cave12, Lálla Beau feeds a great cauldron in which beaten rhythms, misty sounds, traditional Bolivian melodies, languages from all corners of the world, and New York funk are mixed. It makes you dance and dream at the same time, and it is surprising.

Bee Bee Sea
From a small town in Mantua to the BBC broadcast of Iggy Pop: this is the fairy tale that Bee Bee Sea are writing. Wilson Wilson, Giacomo Parisio and Andrea Onofrio, tell about the boredom of provincial life, feeling stuck, being broke with incendiary live
From a small town in Mantua to the BBC broadcast of IGGY POP.
This is the fable that Bee Bee Sea are writing. The boredom of provincial life. Feeling stuck. Being broke. There is all this in their music. Yet none of this has stopped the Mantua-based trio from touring Italy and the world, enhancing their reputation as a crazy, incendiary live band. After more than 300 concerts since the release of the successful "Sonic Boomerang," Bee Bee Sea are ready to launch "Day Ripper," their third and most intense album, released by Bergamo-based Wild Honey Records. The Bee Bee Sea - Wilson Wilson on guitar and vocals, Giacomo Parisio on bass and Andrea Onofrio on drums - met right out of high school and immediately bonded, thanks to music. "When there's no good shit around you better form a band" goes their motto - and so they did.
Two albums and several singles later, they are now ready to unleash the power of their "Day Ripper" everywhere, a record strained on the edge and fueled by frustration: "ripper - ripper" is the right word to describe it. Written in late 2018 and early 2019, it was composed the same way all their music is born: by improvising, experimenting with pedals or simply following the riffs and sounds in their heads. Ten songs make up the tracklist of "Day Ripper."
From the catchy and effervescent "Be Bop Palooza," to the wild and dirty garage punk of "Drags Me Down" and "Telephone," it's a record that catapults you across the room before pinning you against the wall and screaming straight into your face. The songs follow one another relentlessly, breathlessly, super-fast drums and frantic chords occasionally teetering on the brink of noise collapse. Yet this chaos is exactly what makes "Day Ripper" so compelling and so much fun.
