Transition Festival 2013 – Musical Meanderings 16th April 2013

As I mentioned last week during my show, over the Easter period I was able to enjoy another transformative occasion in Spain at the latest edition of the appropriately titled Transition festival. It’s the second year in a row I was able to attend this wonderful event, held in a beautiful national park near Almonte in the Huelva province of southwestern Spain. It’s the first major European festival of the season and it was a great way to temporarily flee the biting cold of the UK and get dancing outdoors, literally experiencing the transition out of winter into spring. While I was there I was able to record nice conversations with some of the artists who played, including Psibindi and Suduaya, who actually ended up camping next to my friends and I. Leading up to the festival here was a DJ competition run by the Transition crew through Facebook and the winner was able to play at the festival. This year it was won by Tobias Bassline and it was great to see him enjoying himself during his first set outside his home country of Germany. I had a chat with him too and you can check out his set here.

I loved getting different perspectives on the event, though there were common themes amongst most of the people I spoke to, mainly based around the great music we were enjoying, the lovely, friendly people that we were constantly meeting and the beautiful location, surrounded by amazing pine trees. You’ll hear me mention them more than once during the conversations and also talk about the welcoming, hospitable feeling from the organisers and, as a result, from everyone sharing the atmosphere. It was also great to feel the progress the festival is making, evolving from last year- improving where needed, yet keeping what was working.

Sonic Species

As well as the conversations, I played music from some of the artists I enjoyed rocking at the event, including Sonic Species, Suduaya, Avalon and Lucas. You can listen to it again here on my  Mixcloud page:
