CULTURE Summer sounds the death knell of the festivals and its wide range of artists. Once again the Morocco is the background setting of a festival out of the ordinary... electronic nights of Essaouira.
For the history:
House music was born in the 1980s in Chicago, and the legend tells that its name comes from the club Waterhouse, where Dr D.J. Frankie Knuckles.The house is composed, at the base, d "a minimum rate, (d)" a line of funky bass, and voice, samplées or not.
Even if the house was born in Chicago, the cities of Detroit and New York had a scene quickly very active. Thought to the hip-house, New Jersey... House (which the Blaze is still a worthy representative) or the garage house inspired by the club which played Larry Levan, the Paradise Garage.
Fun anecdote, Franckie Knuckles and Larry Levan were friends before "they become DJ.In fact, this music is characterized from the beginning by means of reduced productions, a side "made in the House" who took part in the success of his name: house-music. The precursors had their songs on cassette for the sole purpose that the DJ and Club.
These experiences have shaped the culture of the club and its mythology. LP discs arrived soon after. The house is subdivided into a multitude of categories that appear and disappear with the modes.
The background of this festival:
Taganza, a small village of fishermen cabins, nestled on the beach in the hollow of the dunes at 2 km from Sidi Kaouki (Essaouira). Fishermen live on the heights in the village. Space at the rear of the huts of fishermen and the remains of cinema settings, is completely covered by small and large mounds of seaweed red and black.Color contrast and surprise in this setting of stone, sand, water, eucalyptus and genets white... landscapes and immense beaches. Sand dunes, forest of mimosas, eucalyptus inhabited by turtles, deserted beaches, the city and the Purpaires Islands in the distance, such as a mirage makes Taganza a magiqueÉ
The few remains of walls of false stones, pieces of columns and ancient arch resistant yet. Sky, above on the cliff, the 360 ° panorama is a marvel.
The conclusion:
There is no doubt that this background will give this festival, a magical, magical measure and that the night clubbers who sell, will be marked also by the range of Dj's from four corners of the world by the beauty of the place.Then, the appointment is already fixed, from 24 to 28 June 2009.
