A show that was unanimously acclaimed
Scattered between the lawn and the esplanade, the audience converged in front of the stage during the concert of La Punta Bianca. With their synth pop with accents new wavethe Franco-British duo gradually got into gear to finish their performance with some high-energy electronic disco. The show was a unanimous success, allowing the place to warm up before the arrival of the musicians from Nihiloxica.
Initially signed to Nyege Nyege Tapes, a renowned Ugandan label and festival, the members of the group are the result of a meeting between two British artists and three percussionists from Kampala (Uganda). Mixing the rave and techno sound of the first two with the traditional percussion of the other three, the sound of Nihiloxica has transcendental virtues.
On Thursday, the effect was quickly verified with an energetic crowd carried by the dancers in the front row. Members of the Brest hip-hop collective The Pride of Ours, they put on a show within the show. With such a launch, this 28e edition holds great promises for the rest of the weekend.
