Escaping the outer world @ Boom Festival


...The usual 4 day journey into free spirit of mind and the most forward thinking transglobal cultural event ever!

Although with much fewer visual impact than the last years (video installations, VJing), this year's edition got bigger and better. I must confess I liked the old Sacred Fire stage better because of its more rustic approach and position (one could see it from the garden area), although this year's design was awsome (yet more professional, with truss support and professional lighting).

Finally, on one side the chill area got smaller and poorer than last edition and on the other side Boom gained a new incredible stage (Groovy Beach), in which I heard and danced my brains out to the sound of the most incredible funky music!

Another travel to that wonderful island. Praia da Vitória, Terceira, Açores.

This year the weather spoiled the main events. An incredible shower droped friday afternoon and collapsed the structure of the main stage.

Nevertheless, people didn't go away and we had to improvise the electronic performances in a secondary tent.
Everybody helped and we managed to set up the sound and image hardware in a rush.

As always, we have been very welcomed and it was nice to meet some local friends.
