Influenced by free jazz and psychedelic rock, Raed Yassin and Paed Conca take Arabic pop music called Shaabi to a rollercoaster ride, linking it with Mouled, music used in religious trance ceremonies thus creating a groundbreaking option for the exotic sounds of the Middle East. Praed have just released their fourth album entitled „Doomsday Survival Kit“ on Akuphon, which they are eager to present to Belgrade’s audience for the first time. Their previous material includes two albums released on Annihaya Records – „Fabrication of Silver Dreams“ from 2016 and „Made in Japan“ from 2011, as well as their debut „The Muesli Man“ released on Creative Sources in 2008. Raed and Paed have spent their recent years touring the world and performing at festivals, weaving a web of collaborators for the days to come.

Local suport comes in formation of Lenhart Tape who will perform Live and two dj sets by Ali Güney and Andria.

Besides their 48hour natureloving endeavour from 2015, plusplusplus has hosted gatherings with Jerusalem In My Heart, Daphni, Derek Plaslaiko and Burnt Friedman as guests, to name a few. Festival crew remains dormant with an exception of their traditional annual summer gathering at our Garden. Exclusive is the word.

Sassy J (Swiss, Patchwork) + Nikola Vemic & Ali Güney
==========
Hailing from the de facto beautiful Swiss capital of Bern, Sassy J has a colourful and charming sound informed by her simple and honest love of music and emotion. She runs her own Patchwork night, does the art for each party and has a passion for sewing one off pieces of clothing that marry many different textures and styles in compelling ways, much like when she mixes records.

Sassy J has been passionately doing her do for 20 years now. In that time she has kept a focus on forward thinking electronic and analog sounds, has been a consistently exciting DJ and has earned a reputation amongst esteemed artists and fans that appreciate her unhurried style. Driven by a feel for the occasion, a passion to present new sounds and desire to leave a mark on her audience, Sassy J has played everywhere from Eglo Dance and Dekmantel to Panorama Bar and De School – Fascinoma Festival Mexico, Rainbow Disco Club Japan and Freedom Time Festival Australia.

Always digging for inspiration and for those moments in life that make you go ‘wow,’ Sassy’s hunt takes her into the worlds of tribal art, fabrics, books and more. She has found favour with The Trilogy Tapes, Resident Advisor and Crack Magazine, all of whom she has done official mixes for. A tactile and heartfelt selector, a quest to really take her listeners somewhere defines what she does. Sassy J likes to let her music breath and marinate, to take her time and let the moods and grooves she offers up really sink in. Always shifting through sounds with real dynamism, is all these things that make her a standout voice in the DJ world.
