8 PM Sw@da DJ set
9 PM Felix Shinder & Dengi Vpered (Ukraine)

DJ Sw@da will present his own musical selection ranging from Podlachian folk to Amazon and the wider South American scene, strongly saturated with traditional music. It will be a clash of beats, samples, traditional Belarusian singing and energy straight from clubs in Sao Paulo.

Dengi Vpered is an octet formed in 2014 “from native and adopted sons of Odessa-Mama”. They are known for their style – a mixture of street gangster folklore, Jewish folk music and rock ‘n’ roll – which the musicians themselves call “Odessa gangsta folk”. The independent spirit of the band and their stage ingenuity earned their spot on the canvas of Ukrainian pop music and a distinct Odessa atmosphere with special humor made Dengi Vpereda hallmark of Odesa itself.

The cooperative was rocketed to instant fame when their soloist Felix Schinder appeared on the TV show “Voice of the Country”. They quickly won fans, went on tour and to the studio. In 2016, the band’s debut album “Zoloto drevnikh odessitov” was released. The musicians focused on intensive concert activity – they perform from South America to Central Asia, make music videos, films and TV programs. They also do not forget about Europe, where in 2018 they played 54 concerts, including in Germany, France, Spain, Poland, Belgium and the Netherlands. At an international folk music festival in Plauen, Germany, they won an audience award and met with an enthusiastic reception.
