Boom Festival 2008

good luck posted a topic in Agosto

O que é o Boom Festival? O Boom é um festival bienal de cultura independente e expressão artística. Realiza-se desde 1997 em Portugal durante a Lua cheia de Agosto. A sua extensa programação inclui artes performativas, música, multimédia, pintura, bioconstrução, teatro, cinema, conferências, workshops, instalações, etc. - é todo um conjunto de actividades que fazem deste um evento multidisciplinar singular. A par da riqueza da oferta artística, o Boom distingue-se por ser um dos festivais mais interculturais do mundo. Às suas edições acorrem pessoas de todo o planeta – em 2006 estiveram presentes 20.000 pessoas de 80 nacionalidades diferentes – que convivem e trocam experiências num ambiente extremamente intercultural. Paralelamente, o Boom desenvolve projectos na área da sustentabilidade, ao nível da energia, do tratamento de resíduos e da água. Assumindo a importância do entretenimento para dar novas soluções aos problemas das sociedades actuais - nomeadamente ao nível do ambiente - o Boom desenvolveu uma parceira com o Ecocentro IPEC, do Brasil (instituto que tem convénios com a ONU ou o Banco do Brasil). O resultado é a utilização de tecnologias para saneamento e energia pioneiros a nível mundial. O Boom é um festival único no mundo. A par da consciência ecológica, é um espaço de criação artística e de vivência intercultural norteadas por uma ética independente. No Boom festeja-se uma forma de entretenimento para as pessoas e não para corporações, celebra-se a liberdade e a natureza, festeja-se a arte. Boom 2008 Dates Revealed Earth dweller be it guided by the cosmopolitan superpowers, or living in a community or just living an Earth friendly life, you know what this means: the Boom dates.

Edition after edition Boom Festival likes to move forward and innovate, breaking all borders and established guidelines. We anticipate now three novelties for next Boom… Expect a bigger input in new thinking paradigms with a major event associated with Boom. We will launch a pioneer festival called Reboot that will occur before Boom Festival. Be sure that if you’re after the next big thing in the world of music, Boom will know it. There will be a new music area for diverse genres such as dubstep or minimal (no new rave nor mainstream music folks!). To break lose the constraints of body-ego-centered-thinking we’ll launch a pioneer project to cross-pollinate performance arts. These arts will come alive throughout Boom in a countless series of multimedia productions, experimental theatre, dances, performance - based shows. We’ll interpret avant-garde shows with artists from around the globe.

We’re also upgrading this service as the Boom Bus service is also a way for people to avoid carbon emissions. We suggest all people that want a pleasant Boom and a better environment to come to the gathering with the Boom Bus: it’s more ecological, comfortable, cheaper and safer. The Boom Book And The New DVD Anticipating the next Boom, two projects will be released. The “Boom Book” is a book made throughout the year of 2007. A masterpiece of art and culture celebrating Boom´s 10th anniversary. It’s a pioneering book designed in avant-garde visual style and full of in-depth contents. Written by artists, anthropologists, journalists and photographers reflecting the Boom experience and its place of visionary culture in today’s world. It’s the Boom contributions for the perspectives towards the present and future reality(ies). The Boom DVD will be an outlook of Boom 2006. An introduction for next edition. It’s a synthesis of the spirit, an emotional and funny document that catches the familiar spirit of “We Are One”. A filmed message for the human consciousness.

Music - Dancefloor - Lineup “If people can dance together they can live together” Mel Cherren “I believe that if you put your ego in front of the music, then the people trying to listen to the music can’t hear it, they just listen to your ego” ‘Mad’ Mike Banks (Underground Resistance) Music-wise Boom is an underground festival. Since 1997 the major concern has been to clash unknown artists with popular names. We don’t like to do line ups based on a small groups of artists that travel all around the world. Instead at Boom the main concern has been to show other artists, different ideas and more sub-genres. We know that if we’d put a few more popular names it would be easier commercially. But we wouldn’t be doing our best to enrich the music culture of psy-trance and to widen its horizons. The 2008 edition line up is not based on a monoculture perspective. It’s based on a strong conviction that we must show the underground side of psy-trance as opposed to the dominant culture of the trance scene nowadays of big names in big line ups (repeating the mistakes that all other dance music genres made years ago, reducing the choices of the audience and emphasizing quantity as opposed of quality). Our concept is to show the underground and to create a dance floor where all sub-genres of psy-trance are represented. Some people will like it and some others won’t. However one thing is for sure: if you want to get in touch with the diversity that is still around you’ll have the dance floor. Be open-minded, from full-on psy-trance, dark, progressive to experimental, tribal and acoustic trance, techy or suomi, neo-goa trance and classic psy-trance: all tribes are represented. No monoculture, just diversity. Be open-minded in a dancefloor powered by a Funktion One sound system!

And no, it’s not alternative; it’s a major music floor! Music is changing every second fuelled by the digital factor, be it the Internet, the DVJ, the MP3, or the digital DJing. Tastes and genres are moving towards syncretism, never in the history of mankind so much music has been produced, released and listened to by so many people. Capturing the current trajectory of music, Boom has a new music area. The spirit is one of crossover. In Groovy Beach music styles are showcased as a mirror of present trends in the music scene with a particular forward thinking ethos. There’s plenty of room for experimentation and fun, an attitude of feeding the music scene by clashing sounds and influences in the same place. From 3pm to 8pm there’s funk, reggae, dub and funky-mash up-beats. At 8pm dubstep will rule the place with a massive bass music and dense melodies. Breakbeat will get in full swing at midnight with some of the coolest artists around. At 2am breaks will turn into other beats. From this time straight to the morning you can listen to deep techno, minimal, tech-house, deep house, neo-trance, and fresh and innovative four-to-the-floor music by talented DJs and live acts. The Groovy Beach is a freestyle place and a playfully inventive music zone.

The Saami people have a unique musical tradition where each person has their own special song or ‘joik’. This becomes a personal acoustic symbol. Parents can give a ‘joik’ to their children, or lovers can give a ‘joik’ to each other as a gift. The Sacred Fire music stage is about the place of music and nature in people’s perception. Gardens are built in, live music is performed, and an intimate environment is created with performances and an ever-present organic edge. On the top of one hill, this stage for concerts will feature world music, ancestral music meets modern production, pieced together with a specially designed natural environment so that each one of Boom goers can perceive their personal ‘joik’. 3ple-d - Holland Atma - Portugal Barcelona Afrobeat International Orchestra - Spain Blasted Mechanism – Portugal Buritaca 200 – Colombia Charrascos da Citânia – Portugal / Arruadas Beirãs Gocco - Japão Jahmin -Portugal M.U. – Portugal Napalma - Brasil OCO - Portugal Orquid Star - Inglaterra Pedra Branca - Brasil Raspa – Espanha / América Latina Shiva Sound - Barcelona Terrakota - Portugal Teresa Gabriel - Portugal Velha Gaiteira – Portugal / Beira Interior Wild Marmelade - Australia Yemanjaz - Portugal
