“We don’t take what’s on the market, we take the good ones on the market,” the director tells us. In addition to the availability of artists, Michael Drieberg lets his heart speak when defining the programs. However, he admits that he has some shortcomings regarding the urban market that he does not really know. Well surrounded, he let himself be guided by the younger generation.
After eight editions, the festival is slowly growing and its reputation is beginning to be felt as it approaches the artists. Talking among themselves about Sédun’s departure, word of mouth completes his mission. Another aspect comes into the discussion when doing a “survey” with the big names in the world of music. Does the festival have the technical skills to put on a show? Increasingly complex year after year, organizers must carefully control the technique behind an artist. To give an example, the French rapper Ninho will be with him when he appears on stage on Saturday, a real airplane wing. So many challenges that the festival must overcome to ensure a good reputation.
