This is not a music festival, it’s a lifestyle. These few days a year when you have no expectations of anyone, just like Pohoda in relation to you. On July 9-11 at the airport in Trencin, Slovakia again for 3 days was given to us to live “in pohodzie”. We had the opportunity to see concerts by Björk, Die Antwoord, Manu Chao and supergroup Franz Ferdinand & amp; Sparks. We had, but they did not watched. Why? We decided to be sexy. I always wanted to be hipsterami who do not go to Björk!
“If you want to be sexy, you feel it within yourself”. Not very revealing, but it caught on. Quote by Dave Crowe, beatboxer duo Heymoonshaker . Together with his colleague, Andy Balcon, served to mix with peeled oral beats as trousers Keith Richards guitar blues.
Andy sings and plays like fruit of the common orgy of Jimi Hendrix, Robert Plant, Janis Joplin and Neil Young. All of this is backed by low bass and beats thrown from niezamykających Crowe paragraph. Men gave such a great show that they felt “sexy”. I am sure that, starting from the tent looked like Brad Pitt and George Clooney together.
Happy with us
Cheerful decided to see if Briton Kate Tempest has a chance to go like a storm created by us after the date ranking of the best pohodowych wykonów. 30-year-old winner of the prestigious poetry award honors Ted Hughes proved that in the category of “spoken word artist” could learn from it himself, Henry Rollins. Nawijka impressive wrapped us around his tongue, but underestimated the poetic qualities of her work, since fired as the machine effectively phrases crashed against the wall of our linguistic niewyrozumiałości. In addition Stormy Katie was so catchy, almost radio choruses that was not in my mind we investigate the importance of individual songs, so we focused on tupaniu foot and rhythmic shaking their heads.
Passing the main stage zerknęliśmy to play Franz Ferdinand & amp; Sparks. Again, we felt ugly, so fast zmyliśmy to … Einst ü rzende Neubauten . Blixa Bargeld and company present material beyond the convention rock festival, it’s no surprise that after a few songs at a concert Germans remained only ones who knew exactly what to expect after the show industrial legend. “We are happy with you, please be happy with us” – calmly appealed to the audience charismatic frontman and gave Neubauten show with a sense of mastery workshop by mixing material from his latest album – concept album “Lament” – with works from earlier, better-known rings (even “The Garden” with “Ende Neu” or “Dear Friends” from the album “Perpetual Motion”).
Die Antwoord was with us again do the winners of Mister Universe . Unfortunately, the aggressive show duo from South Africa can be compared to see on the big screens visualization. Animated penises are no longer was the level of sensual eroticism, only the aesthetics of German porn. This also was their concert, so there was a premature ejaculation evacuation by Europe Stage on stage Budi s .
In this first zerknęliśmy for girls with Catalan Mourn , playing so endearingly immature indie rock sounds that I almost and they took us to that it was good. It was not, but the oldest lady in the band is 19 years old, so you understand … We had to see them! During this time, on the second of these scenes they have already played with the band punk rockers OFF .
Brass techno and half a bottle of Jack Daniels
They started well and it is at such a rate that even we ran the popular “mill” under the stage. The spell was broken when the singer said. We understand that he was from America and probably already had 300 processes with lost teeth by fans below the stage, but 1) we were in Slovakia 2) 15-minute readings between songs on educational topics do not fit with the ethos of the true hardkorowca. Shame!
It seemed to us that do not like too techno. So, you know – “umpa umpa” puszczanym by a guy from behind the big console. Since Friday we love this genre of music. With one minor amendment. Techno must be played by jazz musicians on dęciakach. I do not know the names of tracks that have done the Americans with Too Many Zoos , but I’ve heard them all on the radio. It was the moment when we gave it a bear already totalnemu madness and we shot whistles overhead – to the sounds of trumpet, saxophone and other all sorts of “inflatable” instruments. They were amazing!
Eagles of Death Metal on the main stage made for a while, They made us feel like ZZ Top concert in the middle of Nashville. And not just by the appearance of substitute guitarist Josh Homme’a on the route, but the boogie that beautifully zapodali in the simplest, but how playgroup rock and roll form. Jesse Hughes is a good lad to – gulp tipped half a bottle of Jack Daniels without losing much of its slightly disturbed stage charisma. When the feeling of watching ZZ Top in Nashville began to escalate into that which accompanies watching Bajmu on Days of Radom, zmyliśmy to a completely different, darker stories.
The full dose of gloom team put us through Bo Ningen . The quartet from Japan is a mix of psychedelia, heavy riffs, sharp rhythm section in the points and total rozpierduchy on stage. Their music is like the blackest character of the darkest manga.
The day we finished the chair. 4 morning at a concert Germans from Dyse . The duo lulled us to sleep a mix of harsh, raw rock and of noise.
Far from Bj ö rk
Serbs from Repetitor We started the concert on Saturday. Set charged with quick, sharp songs, however, he took us something else. Long, trance song with a folk lilt bassist intriguing.
A true punk rock is, however, were only Brytole with Fat White Family . His 35-minute concert przywalili us in the middle of the nose. It was a firecracker, which could fire only guys sępiący while performing a pipe from the audience. They looked and played like the Sex Pistols after the fight with Iggy Pop. At the same time, the concert lasted Bj ö rk, so the gentlemen of the Fat White Family had collected not too impressive auditorium. After the two quarters left the stage, the audience joked that probably also went on show Islandki.
Sorrow with a short performance of the British ukoili quickly Spaniards with Seward . A year ago Pohodzie gave a great concert at the end of the festival, the organizers decided to invite them once again. We saw their performance the year before and the conclusion is one – gentlemen play every time as if it was their last gig in life. In every gesture and every note wygrywanej they can hear how they are fantastic musicians. The songs are his famed, often perverse drama. No one is able to assess which way will develop a song. You can not break away from them neither eyes nor ears discontinued. An amazing team, an amazing concert. The best in this year Pohodzie.
With fully charged batteries we went to a concert Young Fathers . It also was a great choice. More than an hour frantic fun to rap beats and stories told by three MC’s. It was very hopping, but also at times darkly.
The mood spoiled us some gentlemen from Turbowolf . Not only that wsiowo played like an IRA after reactivation (and maybe before? Can not remember), it is still trying to buy a cheap audience texts in the style of “we are the best”. Also news to me … At the airport in Trenčín always fall all the best!
Circus departed
One of the highlights of the last day of the festival was the performance of American women with CocoRosie . The sisters Casady, supported by beatboxer Tezem and responsible for electronics (and trumpet) Japanese Takuya Nakamura, are preparing to release the sixth album in the discography of the group (premiere in autumn 2015), concerts are therefore an opportunity to listen to the live premiere tracks (even “Heartache City”) . More important than music in performances CocoRosie is, however, show, cute girls do so all by – a bit like a circus presentation – give the viewer while juggling entertainment (the band appeared on Pohodzie costumed clowns – fun circus theme will probably be the leading theme of the forthcoming album) . In addition to the gymnastic wygibasami disaster Sierra Casady, who amazed the audience agility Chodakowska Eve, the most memorable moment of the concert was, however, daring CocoRosie, a few minutes solo thesis, which – we are convinced of this – win in the reins “Got Talent!” (Most captivated us in his beatboxerskim przerywniku references to the works of Prince).
This year we reached the end of history which we list for you since 2010, the date of our first visit to the festival Pohoda. From that moment every year is divided into the time before the Slovakian event and the moment just after – with great pofestiwalowym hangover. This sad feeling that reminds us that once again we had the opportunity to participate in an extraordinary event, and that such an opportunity again until next year. Mr. Heymoonshaker team explained what you need to do to be “sexy”. Although at the moment charmed us with his evocative speech, is a merit in the specifics same Pohody not a single concert that from six years we feel sexy like never before.
