SUMMARY:Reggaeville Easter Special - Cologne
DESCRIPTION:Line-Up: Steel Pulse\, Alborosie\, Hempress Sati­va feat. Pao­lo Bal­di­ni Dub­files  \nThe Reg­gaeville East­er Spe­cial returns this year for its 11th edi­tion. By now\, reg­gae fans have a long-stand­ing tra­di­tion of not going away for East­er — unless it’s to trav­el across the coun­try from one show to the next. After all\, you can nev­er get enough of the off­beat. \nThis year’s East­er Spe­cial show­cas­es the full breadth of the genre. Vet­er­ans Steel Pulse from Birm­ing­ham may have long since set­tled in the Unit­ed States\, yet they still stand as quin­tes­sen­tial rep­re­sen­ta­tives of UK reg­gae — thank­ful­ly none the less sharp-edged or polit­i­cal­ly out­spo­ken for it. \nOrig­i­nal­ly hail­ing from Sici­ly\, Alborosie made the jour­ney to Jamaica decades ago. His music embod­ies the open­ness of a true glob­al cit­i­zen\, espe­cial­ly cel­e­brat­ed not only through­out Europe but across South Amer­i­ca as well. At the East­er Spe­cial\, he will present his lat­est album Nine Mile live on Ger­man stages for the first time. \nMean­while\, Hempress Sati­va has trav­eled from Vine­yard Town in Kingston to Cal­i­for­nia\, where her songs con­tin­ue to praise the sacred herb while chan­nel­ing spir­i­tu­al forces and play­ful­ly flirt­ing with dub aes­thet­ics. This nat­u­ral­ly brings Pao­lo Bal­di­ni into the pic­ture\, with whom she record­ed the now leg­endary — and viral — Vinyl Thurs­day Ses­sions in Pap­ine\, Kingston. For the East­er Spe­cial\, the pair will arrive with their new­ly released col­lab­o­ra­tive album in tow. \nSo — have you dyed your East­er eggs in red\, gold\, and green yet? And have you tucked tick­ets for the Reg­gaeville East­er Spe­cial into your loved ones’ East­er bas­kets? With a line-up like this\, reg­gae afi­ciona­dos of every per­sua­sion are bound to get their share of the groove. \nThe Edi­to­r­i­al Team

SUMMARY:RIDDIM Session: Lila Iké & Wurl Sound
DESCRIPTION:One of a kind! To di Wurl! One Wurl!\nLila Iké has all the mak­ings of a superstar—something she proved not long ago with her Gram­my appear­ance and at the Lost in Time Fes­ti­val in Kingston. At the same time\, she remains more ground­ed than most artists in her field. She com­mands the full key­board of reg­gae styles with effort­less mas­tery. Long before she began con­quer­ing major stages with her dynam­ic live shows\, she was already rock­ing sound sys­tem ses­sions like a sea­soned pro.\nThose ses­sions shaped her just as pro­found­ly as the music of Gar­nett Silk and Lau­ryn Hill. Her excep­tion­al tal­ent did not go unno­ticed by her men­tor Pro­to­je\, who wel­comed her into his Indig­gna­tion camp as ear­ly as 2017. Eight years lat­er\, her acclaimed debut album “Trea­sure Self Love” earns a nom­i­na­tion for a Reg­gae Gram­my.\nWith­in the cir­cle sur­round­ing Protoje’s Habi­tat Stu­dio in the moun­tains above Kingston—her home base—the term “Wurl” (Jamaican patois for “world”) has long been used for any­thing con­nect­ed to Lila. Embrac­ing the nick­name\, she turned it into a child­hood dream ful­filled. Togeth­er with Joshua Waters Rudge\, singer of the Eng­lish band The Skints and an expe­ri­enced selec­tor\, she found­ed Wurl Sound. After ses­sions in Jamaica\, Eng­land\, and Japan\, the project is now tour­ing Ger­many for the very first time. \nUp close & per­son­al!\nRid­dim Ses­sion #2 is all about break­ing down the dis­tance between artist and audi­ence\, cre­at­ing an atmos­phere of gen­uine close­ness and con­nec­tion.\nHan­dling the warm-up and after­par­ty jug­gling are Cologne’s top selec­tors DJ Densen\, D‑One\, and DJ Adirock.\nTell a friend to tell a friend!

SUMMARY:Freedom Sounds Festival
DESCRIPTION:Fri­day: The Beat feat. Rank­ing Junior\, Son­ic Boom Six\, Die Liga der gewöhn­lichen Gen­tle­men\, Sun Byrd\, King Zepha Band feat. B Dubbs\, Trav­el­ers All Stars\, The Mod­birds // Doors: 5:00 PM \nSat­ur­day: Hol­lie Cook\, Dave Bark­er Mr. Dou­ble Bar­rel meets The Mag­ic Touch\, The Mighty Mocam­bos\, Junior Dell & The D‑Lites\, Reg­gae Work­ers of the World\, The Ban­du­lus Revue feat. Jesse Wag­n­er & Vic Rug­giero\, Fly­ing Vipers\, Arte Bel­la & The Fel­las\, Sooth­say­ers\, Dunia & Aram with Lady Hatch­ett and Don Raf­fa\, The Mag­ic Touch // Doors: 1.30 PM  \nReg­gae has many facets. Tak­en as an umbrel­la term\, it encom­pass­es a wide range of Jamaican styles. Year after year\, the Free­dom Sounds Fes­ti­val brings togeth­er acts from around the globe\, pri­mar­i­ly rep­re­sent­ing Ska\, Ear­ly Reg­gae\, Rock­steady\, Jamaican Jazz and relat­ed sounds—resulting in a rich­ly var­ied musi­cal pro­gram on stage. \nOne of Friday’s high­lights is undoubt­ed­ly the Eng­lish 2 Tone band The Beat\, fea­tur­ing the suc­cess­ful father-and-son duo Rank­ing Roger and Rank­ing Jnr.\, whose appear­ance at Free­dom Sounds in 2017 is still fond­ly remem­bered by many. By now\, the junior has stepped into his father’s shoes as the band’s lead singer. Also hail­ing from the UK are Manchester’s Son­ic Boom Six\, who fuse Punk\, Ska\, Hip-Hop and Drum & Bass into an explo­sive­ly dance­able mix—complete with a clear polit­i­cal edge. \nOn Sat­ur­day\, it’s well worth arriv­ing ear­ly\, as the festival’s main day fea­tures one major name after anoth­er. Head­lin­ing is the enchant­i­ng Hol­lie Cook. Effort­less­ly blend­ing Reg­gae\, Lover’s Rock and Trop­i­cal Pop\, she has carved out a dis­tinc­tive niche of her own. With Paul Cook\, drum­mer of the Sex Pis­tols\, as her father and Boy George as her god­fa­ther\, it comes as lit­tle sur­prise that her musi­cal roots can be traced back to the leg­endary all-female punk band The Slits. \nDave Bark­er from Kingston is regard­ed as an impor­tant fig­ure in the Reg­gae and Rock­steady scene. In the 1970s he rose to promi­nence as one half of Dave & Ansell Collins. The duo reached the top of the UK charts with their mas­sive hit “Dou­ble Bar­rel”\, help­ing bring Reg­gae to an inter­na­tion­al audi­ence. Dave Bark­er will come to Ger­many for an exclu­sive show; he will per­form togeth­er with Berlin’s The Mag­ic Touch – yet anoth­er com­pelling rea­son to attend Free­dom Sounds.
