La Fanfarria del Capitán will welcome the sun at Pohode 2019

La Fanfarria del Capitán will welcome the sun at Pohode 2019

The Argentinian band La Fanfarria del Capitán used their temperament and made Pohoda dance already last year. This time they’ll bring the programme on the main stage to a close and will welcome the sun together with the festival-goers. The band plays a mix of Latin American rhythms, Ska and rock. Since 2005, they have released five albums and have played a hundred concert a year on average. The quantity is detracting nothing from the quality and extreme zeal that crown each performance, though. As the band says: “La Fanfarria del Capitán is not a music band but a lifestyle.” → read more

Matwe at Pohoda 2019

Matwe at Pohoda 2019

Matwe is a multi-genre man, a member of the Pohoda dramaturgical board, the organizer of Nočná in Bratislava’s Nová Cvernovka and a DJ formed by world festivals and techno events that he loves to haunt during the year. Recently, he has developed a spontaneous affiliation with the so-called "dancefloor activism" characteristic especially of the Eastern Bloc countries, an intelligent darkness with a protest-political context and a sheer decadence of the hypnotic and hammering straight beat. His Pohoda set will be full of surprises – from Berlin Atonal to Kiev's Cxema, the end of Saturday night at the CCC Club, which co-curates, will be marked by an uncompromising electronic sound. → read more

Lightning Glove at Pohoda 2019

Lightning Glove at Pohoda 2019

Post-punk, electronics, dubstep, rave, industrial... Lightning Glove is a Prague electronic project that covers all these genres. Last year they released a new album “Irrelevant Dreams” with Nona records. “In City In The Daylight” represents Salem in Damien Dubrovnikʼs imagination, while “In The Club Wasted” sounds like some mythic collaboration between Giant Swan and The Prodigy,” wrote Norman Records about the album. For Lightning Glove, the “Irrelevant Dreams” is a unique statement about a peculiar anonymous club hell, which sounds like a promise that this band will make us dance also in CCC Club at Pohoda 2019. → read more

Juhász Tamás at Pohoda 2019

Tamás Juhász is an active member of the Hungarian publisher and collective of experimental & techno music "EXILES". His first album SIMILAR SUBSTANCE /// SAME SUBSTANCE came out last year, and could be interpreted as a melancholic throw back to his childhood through the prism of broken beats and strange melodies. Currently he is working on two follow-up albums to be released. His version of techno is leaving you a bit of a fresh air with the exceptionally flowy synthesizers. → read more

w y m e at Pohoda 2019

W y m e is highly regarded in the scene for her rare electro hybrid sound. Recently she started with the club night Xeno with which she encourages the weird experimental club scene in Bratislava. Different than other DJs, she isn't afraid to mix fragments of pop in her dark rhythmic sets, or anything what she loves and finds on her musical journey. This winter you could’ve heard her at NEXT festival, in summer you can see her at Pohoda 2019 – w y m e’s set on Friday will be a fresh wind, ending the night at CCC Club. → read more

Lolina at Pohoda 2019

Lolina at Pohoda 2019

Lolina, formerly known as Inga Copeland, is a former member of the cult witch-house-trip-hop project Hype Williams (Hyperdub, Big Dada), which she founded with Dean Blunt back in 2005, and which she left also with Blunt in 2012. They both set out in different directions to discover the radical and adventurous corners of music, often on the edge of performance and improvisation. Lolina shares very little about her identity while asking whether she has the right to be forgotten; it is by denying the personality cult that she puts more emphasis on the work itself. In her music, she works a lot with sampled fragments, which she includes in her sound collages and accompanies with her voice, reciting or singing. Her compositions gradually disintegrate and then reunite into a whole; the work with fluid rhythmic elements, which are transformed from organized chaos into polyrhythmic dance rhythms and back again, is her signature. Her music is uncompromising, hectic, and political. → read more
