Venue:   Soundwave 2012 - Croatia
 
Address:   Garden Festival Site
The Garden, Tisno
Croatia
 
Ticket:   GENRL ADMISN -£105.
 
Consessions:   EARLY BIRD - £79 (Now Sold out)  
Note:   Soundwave moves to a new location in Croatia at The Garden, Tisno and will take place from Thursday 19th until Monday 23rd July 2012

The new site has maintained all of the elements from previous years: The Beach Stage with Funktion 1 system. The Main Stage is slightly bigger in capacity than previously and is now set in a tree lined area of parkland in the centre of the site. The Garden Tisno has its very own dock so those embarking on the twice daily boat parties can walk from Main Stage to boat easily. Barbarellas Discotheque is perhaps the biggest change now offering room for everyone to dance in the warm moonlit night to their favourite DJs until the early hours.
Con firmed acts include Anchorsong, Craig Charles, Dele Sossimi - A Tribute To Fela, DJ Yoda, Ghostpoet, Gilla, Hidden Orchestra, Mr Thing, Matthew Halsall, Olugbenga (Metronomy), and Tanya Auclair

Note:   Borne out of oppression, revolution and a need to express the black experience, jazz has always been the most progressive boundary pushing and relevant black music artform, cutting paths for all popular music forms. Veteran keyboardist and arranger for Afrobeat progenitor Fela Kuti's 'Egypt 80' orchestra, Dele Sosimi has gone on to become one of the seminal torch-bearers for the genre. Since moving to the UK some years ago, Sosimi has proven to be a cherished exponent of Afrobeat in Europe... constantly on tour and composing for orchestras - his tracks are frequently cited by famed remixers as playing a vital role in keeping the genre relevant and moving-forward. This is a not-to-be-missed session where Afrobeat opens up and freedom is the theme without loss of the Funk n Fro characteristic of Afrobeat features a fantastic line-up of musicians who have been consistent members of Deles different line ups for only £5:00
