More acts for Bestfest Romania; Royksopp, Booka Shade, Trolley Snatcha and more

| On 28, May 2012

 

 

ROYKSOPP, BOOKA SHADE, TROLLEY SNATCHA added to the B’ESTFEST SUMMER CAMP line up for 2012, which also includes PULP and GARBAGE and an eclectic range of acts such as CARO EMERALD, MODESTEP, SELAH SUE, MILOW, SKINDRED, DOPE D.O.D. and KREATOR taking you on a journey through a wide range of musical genres, with something for everyone. And to make it even more appealing, the festival is running a special promotion for its international visitors: buy a 3 day pass and you get to bring a friend for free!


 

Taking place in Tunari on the outskirts of Bucharest (capital city of Romania), on a beautiful green field next to a willowy lake, B’ESTFEST SUMMER CAMP is shaping up to be one of the best festival holidays! With tickets priced at only 60 EUROS for the 3 days (6-8 July), the festival will feature over 100 acts and DJs, playing on 7 different stages and terraces, as well as lots of festival activities to keep you busy for all three days and nights!

So, if you like traveling, discovering new places, meeting new people and going to the craziest parties, but still want to keep some money in your pocket then B’ESTFEST SUMMER CAMP is well worth considering. As an added bonus you get to visit Dracula’s homeland (and actually his tomb is nearby the festival site!), in one of the coolest capital cities of Europe.


 

 

The latest addition to the line-up is the Norwegian duo Röyksopp, who will only play a few selected festivals this year, with B’ESTFEST being one of the lucky ones to have them on 7th July! And if there’s somebody that doesn’t know it by now, Röyksopp live concerts are not something to miss, as their elaborate performances and eccentric costumes make any of their shows one to remember! Formed by Svein Berge and Torbjørn Brundtland in 1998, Röyksopp released four studio albums (Melody A.M., 2001; The Understanding, 2005; Junior, 2009; Senior, 2010), 15 hit singles (amongst which “What Else Is There?”, “Remind Me”, ”The Girl And The Robot”, ”Happy Up Here” or ”Miss It So Much”), and collaborated with singers such as Robyn, Lykke Li, Karin Dreijer-Andersson (The Knife / Fever Ray) or Erlend Oye (Kings of Convenience / The Whitest Boy Alive).

The German duo Booka Shade will headline B’ESTFEST’s second stage on July 7th. Walter Merziger and Arno Kammermeier are considered to be the forefathers of house, tech house and deep house movements in Germany, their music becoming an inspiration for artists and DJ’s from allover the world. Their 2005 hit “Mandarine Girl” was actually sampled by Black Eyed Peas’ will.i.am for his track “Get your Money”. The band’s discography comprises 6 studio albums, over 20 singles and no less than 30 remixes for artist such as Moby, Depeche Mode or Moderat.

Trolley Snatcha will join Andy C, Stanton Wariors and Modestep for the Dance Arena line-up bringing you more dubstep and bass beats than you can handle. Signed with Caspa’s label “Dub Police”, Trolley Snatcha is a young dubstep producer from Northampton, who succeeded in taking over UK’s musical world in 2009, when he released ”The Future”. Since his debut, Trolley Snatcha has been dropping numerous dance floor knockouts, either original tracks or remixes for artists such as Chase&Status, Dreadzone or Caspa.
