Barzakh Festival – Day 1 – 47SOUL and Pedro Coquenão / Batida
A musical meeting place of genre-shattering artists from diverse cultures, whose global-minded music reflects multiple influences and recombinant identities.
Barzakh Festival – There’s a place in the sea where salt and sweet water meet and coexist, but don’t dilute one another…barzakh. The two-day Barzakh Festival draws inspiration from this idea to create a meeting place of musical streams of genre-shattering artists from diverse cultures, whose global-minded music reflects multiple influences and recombinant identities.
- 47SOUL blasts electro Arabic Dabke sound through underground music scenes.
- Pedro Coquenão / Batida combines old 1970s Angolan sounds with modern electronic dance music.
