V/Z live – ITALIE / JAPON
Vendredi 5 Juillet @ TDM
It’s hard to fit V/Z into a specific box, listening to their « hit » « candles » one will think of Krautrock music drenched in a racy and versatile cold wave ;but Valentina Magaletti and ZONGAMIN, the two artists behind V/Z, don’t bother with any limits and their music sometimes flies toward the Jamaican coasts bringing powerful dub sounds and effects into the mix !!!.

IZCO & reek0 (Brighter Days) dj – UK
VENDREDI 5th JULY @ WFBEACH
The least we could say is that IZCO has made a big impression on us last year at the WF when he took over the desks at the Theatre de La Mer. His sets mix heavily influenced 90’s infused jungle and soulful reggae This year, Gilles and I wanted to renew the experience, but this time under the sun of Sète and with our feet in the sand – and that should make his mix even warmer

MOIN live – UK
friday 5th July @ TDM
MOIN est un trio composé des trois londoniens Tom Halstead, Josh Andrews et la percussionniste / batteuse Valentina Magaletti – qu’on retrouve aussi dans le groupe Vanishing Twin (que l’on a pu voir au WF en 2017 au Théâtre De la Mer).Le groupe évolue entre des sons très post rock voire carrément post-punk, mais ils se disent aussi influencé par le DOOM Metal et n’hésitent pas à mélanger tout ça avec une bonne dose d’électro assez frappé
Moin are a three piece based in London that comprises of Tom Halstead and Joe Andrews of the band Raime (Blackest Ever Black, RR) and percussionist Valentina Magaletti who operates over a great range of projects such as Vanishing Twin, Tomaga and Lafawandah.
The three have been working together intermittently for over 10 years with Valentina contributing drums to both of Raime’s albums (Quarter Turns Over A Living Line in 2012 and Tooth in 2016) and a debut Moin EP in 2013. Valentina also joined Raime’s live show for the Tooth album which toured extensively.
The band navigate a revolving set of influences from obvious touch points such as alt rock, post-punk, art-rock and doom metal to more abstract ideas found in improv and found sound recording. In addition to these more closely related areas, shades of electronic music are still present providing a constant dialogue between the two practices.
The sound is direct but subtly re-assembled.
