SPECIAL SOUNDSYSTEM EDITION OF 14. SEASPLASH FESTIVAL
A special edition of the 14th Seasplash Festival is heading our way and is dedicated to the sound system culture. During the festival, the dominant majority of regional sound systems, present and active on the scene, will be introduced, as well as a few guests from abroad.
As soon as it came to life, Seasplash Festival was one of the first events to start promoting the sound system. Half way till today, on the 7th festival edition to be exact, we introduced the DubSplash stage, which is where the first Croatian sound system called Digitron performs as the resident.
It’s a culture descended from Jamaica, which implemented via their immigrants and gained popularity throughout the ’90s in Great Britain. Since then, its popularity is rising continuously, being one of the fastest growing subculture festival trends in Europe and beyond. In the context of popular culture, the sound system is a group of DJs, sound engineers and MCs that play reggae and other related music. On this occasion, a special feature is that the musicians come equipped with sound systems, usually handmade. That way, besides the selection, performance and style distinctiveness, each sound system introduces itself with their own sound.
SEASPLASH HOSTS DORF (DOCUMENTARY FILM FESTIVAL)
At the 14th Seasplash, we are hosting Documentary Rock Film Festival DORF! Diligent DORF editors will spend this season on the road commemorating 10 years of the festival. They will make a stop in Pula to present the movies and keep supporting activities within FilmSplash programme under the name R means reggae.

\\\\\\ DIGITRON SOUNDSYSTEM \\\\\\ Balkan Dub Defenders
DIGITRON SOUNDSYSTEM è stato fondato a Zagabria nel 2007, da membri di Radikal Dub Kolektiv e Bamwise (entrambe live dub bands croate) come crew ma soprattuto come primo sound system autocostruito in Croazia.
L’idea alla base del progetto Digitron è stata quella di diffondere la dub music nella sua maniera più originale, inizialmente tra la persone delle repubbliche della ex Jugoslavia, e dei Balcani in generale, e ad oggi a livello internazionale.
In quasi 10 anni di costante attività, la Digitron crew ha portato il suo originale “ruff-steppas-style” in tutta Europa, spargendo buone vibrazioni, un messaggio positivo, bassi potenti e l’etica della controcultura Do-It-Yourself, promuovendo il riavvicinamento tra le persone.
L’espressione musicale di Digitron è un mix ad alta tensione sonora, che unisce lo stile dub UK “year 3000” con numerose influenze di diversi generi di musica elettronica.
Digitron è anche uno studio che produce dubplates esclusivi suonati dai soundsystems di tutto il mondo; inoltre molti membri della Digitron crew sono attivi nei movimenti alternativi in Croazia, lavorando e supportando numerosi progetti come live bands, zone autogestite, festivals e manifestazioni artistiche (AKC Medika, Seasplash Festival, Lost Theory Festival, Modem Festival, Outlook, Fusion Festival).

\\\\\\ ETRURIAN SOUNDSYSTEM \\\\\\
ETRURIAN SOUNDSYSTEM è una crew e sopratutto un sound system costruito puntando all’esaltazione acustica e fisica dei bassi, che sia in un club, per strada o in mezzo alla natura.
Le selezioni dell’ETRURIAN partono dai classici roots jamaicani degli anni’60 alle più moderne produzioni digitali dub/dubstep.
www.facebook.com/
\\\\\\ DUB ENGINE \\\\\\
DUB ENGINE è un duo composto da Tux (dubmaster,fx) e Sabry (voce, synth) fondato a Bologna (ITA) nel 2009.
Bassi ruvidi, synth acidi in levare, echi infiniti e tonnellate di wobbles sono il marchio di fabbrica del sound “engine”, figlio di quella nuova generazione di dub che ridipinge i propri suoni in una giocosa miscela di diversi generi: dal roots-reggae ai suoi discendenti elettronici come stepper, jungle e dubstep.
Profondamente influenzati dalle sonorità dub inglesi\francesi agli inizi del nuovo millennio, hanno iniziato ad evolvere il loro stile live nella “psycho-steppa”, un’originale espressione del DUB in cui voci, effetti e basslines esplodono in un intenso impatto sonoro ad elevato contenuto psichedelico.
Hanno condiviso il palco con artisti internazionali della dub-music come Zion Train, OBF, Alpha & Omega, Mad Professor, Martin Campbell, Jahtari, portando il loro live-set tra i principali festival, clubs e centri sociali in Italia ed Europa.
Rilasciano nel 2010 la loro prima net-release di 8 tracce per “Irie On Air” net-label sotto licenza gratuita Creative Commons, prima di pubblicare per l’etichetta francese Dubatriation Records il 7″in vinile “Rude Boy”, tune in selezione fissa nelle sessions di Jah Shaka.
DUB ENGINE live sono la giusta via per raggiungere mete sonore decisamente OUT OF SPACE!

\\\\\\ ELEMENTS DUBNICO \\\\\\
La sua passione nasce con la conoscenza del DUB, sviluppatosi in Europa tra la fine degli anni’90 e i primi del ’00. Sempre alla ricerca di nuove tune, già dal 2011, inizia un percorso a ritroso sino alle origini, spostando l’ attenzione sulle innumerevoli produzioni di roots music degli anni’70 in Jamaica.
Nel 2014 si dedica alla costruzione de L’OSENTO DUB SOUND SYSTEM, primo sound system autocostruito della costa abruzzese, impegnato nella diffusione di vibes Roots e Dub.
Risultato, una session che evidenzia l’evoluzione della reggae music nel senso più ampio: dall’analogico al digitale, dai classici studi jamaicani alle nuove contaminazioni da tutta europa!
