The Garden Festival Croatia

Jurassic Five’s Chali 2na stars on The Garden’s main stage and also returns to the open waves after last year’s incredible boat party.

•    More new acts include No Regular Play, Death On The Balcony, Dead Rose Music Company, Gerd Janson, Appleblim, DJ Lenny, E.A.R, Falling Up, Hang The DJ, Holic, Katie Barker of Ladybugz, Louche and The Groovers all announced!

Another brilliant new live addition to the Garden are No Regular Play, aka USA duo Nicholas DeBruyn and Greg Paulus. Their close relationship with Wolf and Lamb has created a captivating sound (they have been releasing on the W+P label too), stylistically touching on a wide range of influences focused around live instrumentation also used in their sets. Such is their range they have been working on a 25 minute piece for improvisation/ electronics music to be performed with the Minnesota Orchestra in 2011! These guys are not to be missed.

Mark Caramelli and Paul Hargreaves have been causing a huge stir under their guise, Death On The Balcony; their unique style fuses a range of influences from Nu Disco, House to Deep Techno and everything in-between. Expect sublime sounds too from Falling Up, who source original soul 7”s, undiscovered funk gems, deep 80s boogie, dutty disco, classic and future hip-hop, broken beat, afro-centric sounds, real house, techno and Detroitisms and forward thinking bass music into their genre-spanning sets. Germany's Gerd Janson brings  his deep house and disco sounds to Petrcane too; he's one of the country's hottest DJs, as well as writing about music and working with the Redbull Music Academy too. 

Bristol-based star Appleblim recently played Fabric’s Room 1 and the DJ and producer is set for a huge year as his Apple Pips label continues to grow. The self-confessed music obsessive works with many of the dubstep scene’s brightest stars as his own continues to shine brightly too. The Dead Rose Music Company have been creating a stir with their deep crate digging sets and tracks coming out on seminal labels including Wolf Music and E.A.R; this is the brainchild of Jacob Kelly, who co-founded Baker Street Records and now has his own leading label which debuts at the Garden. 
There’s also anything goes legend DJ Lenny and Hungarian nu-disco star Holic features too; Katie Barker of Ladybugz brings her soul, disco, funk and house, Leeds promoters Louche and inspired due The Groovers all play too, further swelling the ranks of this summer’s Garden Festival fun.
