� nUITS SONORES lyon france PRESS KIT 07-12 MAY 2013 � INDIE & ELECTRONIC FRENCH FESTIVAL 11 th eDITION NUITS SONORES, ACT II Nuits Sonores brings in its second decade with the just passion and conviction as before along with a real drive for innovation and reinvention. The festival’s philosophy remains unchanged – to develop an urban environment open to multidisciplinary contemporary fields such as music, graphic design, scenography, visual creation and digital culture. As it stands, the festival aims to pursue its status as an “odyssey in the city”. In the past decade, Nuits Sonores has explored Lyon – night and day, top to bottom – its streets, public spaces, nightspots and cultural institutions, jewels of Lyon’s cultural heritage and industrial wastelands that had thus far been simply looked over. The Arty Farty team hopes to make this journey through the city the backbone of Nuits Sonores, at the heart of its identity. For ten years, this has been a sine qua non for the festival’s existence along with a continuous struggle to make use of the city’s more bizarre locations. This year, Nuits Sonores will be making use of the industrial wasteland known as the Anciennes Usines Brossette for the last time. This will be a special tribute to the venue though scenography and reinvention in visual creation. The 2013 edition of the festival will also mark the return to the venue Les Subsistances. This stunning venue on the Quai SaintVincent will play host to a number of events – NS Days, Carte Blanche (this year for the city of Brussels) and Mini Sonore, the concurrent children’s festival. The major evolution marking the festival’s entry into its second day is the huge development of daytime events. The festival is still just as much a love story for what the night holds. Night-time in the city is a time for meeting, fusion, sharing and liberation. The night is the territory for possibility, freedom, fraternity and creation. We know and love the night most of all for its artists, musicians and DJs who will carry us through our Nuits Sonores journey. The main priority of Nuits Sonores is, of course, the music. The festival, born out of a meeting of a passionate group of electro fans, has constructed its DNA around two indestructible pillars. The first pillar is diversity, derived from the festival founders’ different points of view on electronic and independent culture, in keeping with the original “panorama of electronic music” philosophy that has been in place since 2003. The second pillar is high artistic standards, which has allowed the team to carefully invent, edit, contextualise and construct an artistic identity in order to gain and maintain the public’s trust. This intricate lacework demonstrates the unique spirit of the Nuits Sonores festival. 2 7 – 12 may 2013, LYON sommaire 04 - Main sites 05 - 10 grands principles 06 - Programme in a flash Nuits sonores, day programme 08 - NS Days - Carte blanche to Brussels 11 - NS Days 1 - Stage 1 12 - NS Days 1 - Stage 2 13 - NS Days 1 - Stage 3 14 - NS Days 2 - Stage 1 15 - NS Days 2 - Stage 2 16 - NS Days 2 - Stage 3 17 - NS Days 3 - Stage 1 18 - NS Days 3 - Stage 2 19 - NS Days 3 - Stage 3 20 - NS Days 4 - Stage 1 21 - NS Days 4 - Stage 2 22 - NS Days 4 - Stage 3 23 - NS Days - Mini sonore 25 - Mini sunday 27 - The 4 Aperos sonores 28 - Extra!

The Belgian capital is beautiful, cosmopolitan, welcoming and, of course, cool. It is a total contrast to the gloominess and stress of Parisian life which is only an hour and a half away…and it is just three hours from Lyon! Since the Carte Blanche concept was introduced in 2002, Brussels has always been a strong candidate, but was temporarily put aside for some other irresistible cities like Berlin, Manchester, Tokyo and Montreal. Today, it is Brussels’ time to shine! Nuits sonores has declared its love for this wonderful European Metropololis having discovered it through visits, meetings, concerts and nighttime explorations. The festival program from Brussels is sure to be one of the most enriching and adventurous programs so far. Brussels is made so exceptional by the abundance of creativity, diversity and projects continually going on. The Brussels Carte Blanche could have gone way beyond our limits due to the huge amount of proposals and opportunities that came our way. Talent in Brussels stretches across a number of artistic disciplines and the locals certainly know how to make the most of what their city has to offer. For this reason, we have chosen not only to focus on the music scene, but to also present a huge panorama of the city including cinema, video, clips, graphic design, food and cycling! 8 more information on nuits-sonores.com NUITS SONORES PRESS KIT ns days - CARTE BLANCHE TO BRUSSELS VISUAL PROGRAMME Sélection of movies for adults and chlidren at Les Subsistances.

Satàn indulges in rugged garage rock and unorthodox noise pop.

She infuses genres and atmospheres to create dark, stripped-back music, which has received a lot of media attention.

They travel freely in a familiar, yet undiscovered, world. Their live performances revolve around dance, which makes for a psychological experience transcending the senses. 7.30pm / 8.15pm : NURSE WITH WOUND (United Dairies/ united kingdom) Live Nurse With Wound’s recordings, inspired by Krautrock and Surrealism, make for minimalist music shaken up with industrial tones. Throughout the 1980s, the quartet gained its reputation as a real symbol of the underground rock scene.

She embraces these surreal landscapes with absolute abandon, avoiding safe stylistic devices and obvious structures. 5pm / 5.45pm : CAMERA (Bureau B / Berlin - GERMANY) live The title of Camera’s first album, Krautrock Guerilla, meant one thing –spontaneous, unauthorised public performances.

Since the late 90s, he has built up a highly-acclaimed repertoire, often blurring the lines between certain musical genres as is evident on his latest EP, New for U. He is also the DJ for the cult hip hop group Slum Village. The beat maker’s instrumental tracks have certainly reached new heights. 8pm / 9.30pm : Vitalic Disco Dj Set (Citizen Records / Dijon - France) Dj set According to Vitalic, “disco can be everywhere”. The DJ from Dijon is known for his music combining techno, electro and electronica, but he is also quite the disco fan.

This year, after a remarkable tour in 2010, Vitalic is back with an exclusive disco-themed DJ set.

After a highly acclaimed tour of the States, the duo from Perpignan are back with a new, timeless album, Crystal Anis, which could be considered a mystical lovechild of the Velvet Underground and Serge Gainsbourg. 6.15 / 7pm : The Mojomatics (Outside inside records / Venise - Italy) Live The great strength of this Italian duo lies in their ability to merge blues, folk, pop and garage punk. Their album, You Are The Reason For My Troubles, comes across as a tribute to the Rolling Stones, the Kinks and Bob Dylan’s electric albums. 7.30pm / 8.15pm : The Raveonettes (Vice Records / Copenhaguen - Denmark) Live Since starting out in 2002, the Raveonettes have made their mark with a feverish rock style halfway between 80s noise music and 60s flavoured pop. Along the lines of Sonic Youth and the Velvet Underground, the Danish duo have managed to shape their own unique sound, with an underlying tension that crosses noisy chaos with enchanting pop melodies. 8.45pm / 9.30pm : THE INTELLIGENCE (In the Red Records / Los Angeles - united states) Live Based in Los Angeles, The Intelligence is a prolific, constantly-evolving group. Produced by Charles Woodhouse, their last album, Everybody’s Got It Easy But Me, abandons the lo-fi approach without sacrificing intensity. Abrasive guitar riffs, scorched drum beats and new wave synth make it the wellrounded album from The Intelligence so far.

The Bal2Vieux (which takes place in Guéthary) is an institution of the Basque Country and (sometimes) beyond. It came about one August night in the Basque commune thanks to JulesEdouard Moustic’s enthusiasm (who lives five days a week in Guethary and spends the other two in the Presipality of Groland) with the participation of Rémy Kolpa Kopoul, the historic voice of Radio Nova and skilled DJ (nicknamed DJ RKK). The two oldies were quickly reunited for the 2010 edition by Patrick Leygonie (a.k.a. RJ Rapsode), pioneer of pirate radios and cocreator of Radio Nova. These old-hand DJs (with nearly 200 collective years between the three of them), get things going with an open selection of rock, Latino, soul, reggae, afro, hip hop, Balkan and Brazilian music with no restrictions on remixes, except for the old clichés like Dalida, Claude François and Patrick Sébastien. Guéthary’s fourth Bal2Vieux is the biggest party of the area, currently bringing in crowds of over 3,000 people. Since 2011, it has made the rare trip to the Nimes Feria, the Week-end des Curiosités in Toulouse, the Black & Basque Festival in Bayonne (another of Moustic’s initiatives), the Emmaüs Festival in Pau and now Nuits Sonores in Lyon! We’ve invited a special guest to join the trio for the occasion – Jackie Berroyer. A familiar face at Nuits Sonores, where he has taken part in the legendary Extra blind test, Berroyer also shares the antenna at Le Mouv’ along with Laurent Garnier and Moustic. Moustic (paris - france) dj set Known as the official news presenter of the Presipality of Groland since the 90s, Jules-Edouard Moustic now acts as DJ. Since March 2012, he has hosted the colourful and original Mouv’tic Mix music program on Le Mouv’. DJ RKK (paris - france) dj set At the end of the 70s, Rémy Kolpa Kopoul was one of the first journalists to take an interest in world music (particularly Brazilian music). His raspy voice is easily recognisable for Radio Nova’s listeners where he sets his eclectic musical tastes loose. Rapsode (paris - france) dj set Patrick Leygonie, who created Radio Ivre in the 70s, already ruled the airwaves by inundating Paris with reggae through pirate radios. Today, he continues to pump up the dancefloor with totally unique sounds. The co-founder of Radio Nova brings freedom and force to his talent through exceptional musical fantasies. + SPECIAL GUEST : JACKIE BERROYER (paris - france) dj set Mini sunday /Sunday, may 12th 2013 / From 3pm to 7pm / Les Subsistances Free access 26 NUITS SONORES PRESS KIT LES 4 APÉROS SONORES Wednesday, may 8th 2013 : LA BULLE Place Général Delfosse Quai Rambaud - Lyon 2e SAturday, may 11th 2013 : DISTANT RELATIVES PLACE GERSON - Lyon 5e 2.30pm / 3.15pm : MEHDI KRUEGER & LIONEL MARTIN (Lyon – France) Live 3.15pm / 4.30 : Creation « MÉLI / MÉLO » Concert & Lecture 4.30pm / 5.45pm : LE K (Circus Company - Karat / Perpignan – France) Live 5.45pm / 7pm : ELYSÉE (Archipel Music – Doma Musique / Marseille – France) Live 7pm / 8.15pm : RECONDITE (Plangent Records / Berlin – Germany) Live 8.15 / 9.30pm : ARK (Perlon / Lyon – France) Live 2.30pm / 4.30pm : ED’N LEGS & PROPAGANG DJS (Ed’n Legs – Propagang / Lyon – France) Dj set 4.30pm / 6.30pm : HOLD YOUTH aka SEUIL & LE LOUP (Hold Youth / Paris – France) Dj set 6.30pm / 8pm: AQUARIUS HEAVEN (Circus Company / Berlin – Germany) Live 8pm / 9.30pm : HOLD YOUTH aka SEUIL & LE LOUP (Hold Youth / Paris – France) Dj set thurday, may 9th 2013 : CBD JARDINS DU Commandant Aubertin Angle rue du Lac et rue du Dr Bouchut Lyon 3e Step proposed by Café Cousu and Boolimix Step proposed by Akivai Prod Step proposed by Dolus & Dolus 2.30pm / 4pm : SOLSTICE (Lyon – France) Dj set 4pm / 5.30pm : B-JU (Squelch and Clap / Hambourg – Germany) Dj set 5.30 / 7.30 : SAAEON EXPRESS (Bebup / Lyon – France) Dj set 7.30 / 9.30pm : SINJIN HAWKE (Pelican Fly / Barcelona - Spain) Dj set Step proposed by Ed’n Legs and Propagang sunday, may 12th 2013 : SOUL PASSAGE Rue de la Platière et place Meissonier Lyon 1er 2.30pm / 3.30pm : BOOLIMIX (Radio Canut / Lyon – France) Dj set 3.30 / 4.30pm : ORL (Sobadi – Palmwine Records / Paris – France) Dj set 4.30pm / 6.30pm : BLUNDETTO SOUND SYSTEM (Heavenly Sweetness / Paris – France) Live 6.30pm / 8.30pm : HUGO MENDEZ (Sofrito / United Kingdom) Dj set 8.30pm / 9.30pm : EMILE OMAR (Radio Nova – Domino / Paris – France) Dj set Wednesday 8th, Thursday 9th, saturday 11th and sunday 12th, May 2013 / From 2.30 to 9.30 / 4 places 1 Apéro sonore per days / Free MORE INFORMATION ON nuits-sonores.com 27 � INDIE & ELECTRONIC FRENCH FESTIVAL 11 E ÉDITION 7 – 12 mai 2013, LYON EXTRA! 2013 IN FEW WORDS Nuits sonores is in its eleventh year, and the glamorous Extra! daytime program is in its sixth. Extra!, a unique initiative of its kind in Europe, allows anybody who is keen to set up an event and have it placed in the festival program. Extra! is a real breeding ground for unconventional projects and initiatives. It is a cornerstone of the day program of the Nuits Sonores festival. Since being launched in 2008, Extra! has brought together over 63,000 festivalgoers in quest of for new projects and connections. Thanks to Extra!, over 180 organisations, associations, collectives and individuals actively participate in the festival. The Extra! program is mostly free and takes place in some unusual public locations. It’s content is constantly evolving with things like wild exhibitions, roller riots parties, parades, disco cruises, kiddie nightclubs, a Woodstock foodtruck, giant musical chairs, sumo wrestling, safari photography, philosophical debates, iPad battles and bathroom parties (just to name a few). Extra! is a joyful pop meeting where everybody gets involved. The 2013 edition shouldn’t be any different as 30 or so projects have already been unveiled.

Following last year’s Extra! Piñata exhibition, we’re turning up the volume with Mexico Loco along with our dear friends at Spacejunk Arts Centre. What’s on the menu? Head painting, DJ wrestling, live Mexican painting, Lucha Libre photo shoots, screen printing on fajitas and as many empanadas as you can poke a stick at. Be sure to sport your finest moustache. NAPALM PIMS SELF BURNING MAN Following on from “Napal Pims Explodes”, the retrospective of a very personal raw piece of digital art, this modest young artist is putting on an exhibition that reflects an intimate view of his loved ones and the world. This new collection, “Spontaneous Combustion”, will make its première at Extra! It highlights the importance of gestures of (re)creation rather than just the finished product. DEMOCRACIA At BF15, the Madrid collective Democracia will present their video installation Ser y Durar (To Be and To Last) which is the motto of David Belle’s urban sport invention, Parkour. The project is part of a trilogy focusing on the city of Madrid, uncovering the relationship between contemporary culture and significant social, symbolic and historic sites. DSCRD The members of the group Discordance, who are both musicians and sound engineers, enjoy getting involved in direct experiments with the public. They split their time between releasing electrifying techno EPs on the label Dement3d and setting up inventive installations. It is certainly the only exhibition that will transport you across the sound barrier! GUERILLA GARDENING The guerrilla gardeners have got a new urban project that lies somewhere between land art and street art. Anything goes – a seed parade, moss graffiti and of course, the ace up their sleeve: the weapon of mass vegetation. Gather the troops, some serious street culture is coming to Extra! STROBOBALL WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS: SECOND EDITION Stroboball is without a doubt one of the world’s most extreme sports. It was invented in Lyon at the end of the 1980s and brought back to the light by Extra! in 2012. The concept is based around a classic indoor football match, except that the ball measures one metre in diameter, the goals are three metres high and half-time lasts less than two minutes. The arena (which is now known as the famous “Strobodrome”) is lit only by strobe lights and some seriously powerful techno music fuels the match! MUSICAL CHAIRS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP: RECORD EDITION 50 players, 49 chairs. Minimum. Everybody dances and makes their way around the chairs with their arms crossed. When the DJ stops the music, it’s a mad rush for a free chair and the slowest person misses out! This year the referee is a Guinness World Records representative. Sit down, dude. RUNNING CLUB Don’t bother looking around. This is the best rehab plan for the festival. When all your friends are having drinks and nibbles, don your best running shoes, your fluoro sweatpants and discover the city via a night-time urban jog with a sound system! A steady 10km, a shower and bam, you’re ready for the next five or six nights! TWIST’N’HOUSE Twist’n’house is one of the simplest and coolest projects in the world – it involves house music plus a giant game of Twister, where players have to place their hands and feet on coloured circles without losing their balance. Of course, this will all happen in the middle of the street right amongst the public. LES DÉRIVANTS For this installation, Marc Lathuillière will place one more information on nuits-sonores.com 29 � INDIE & ELECTRONIC FRENCH FESTIVAL hundred artistic projects in luminous bottles which will only be complete once in water. The installation will take place on l’Ile Barbe with a spectacular backing soundtrack. It could also be considered a way of transforming failure and grief into some sort of future. HOUSE CREAM TRUCK Like New York block parties, the House Cream Truck plays a delicious selection of house music all throughout Lyon during Nuits Sonores. Nomadic street clubbing is worth its weight in ice-cream! TONIGHT TONIGHT Amateurs of alternative culture mixing a futuristic sci-fi vision with electro, this event – which would be an excellent subject for Tracks magazine on Arte- is made for you. In one night, dive into the Steampunk universe (which some call retrofuturism) and its powerful design constructed around gears, pistons, leather, dreadlocks, studded boots and aviator sunglasses. This all revolves around electro with undue swing tendancies. If they’d known about it, Jules Verne and Georges Méliès would’ve joined in for sure. THE BIGGEST BBQ OF FRANCE It’s all in the name. On the menu – a buffet of nu-disco put together by the Lyonnais team of Macadam Mambo (DJ Harvey is quite a fan) and a huge barbecue, even bigger than what you’d find in Buenos Aires. A 9-hour, 25- continuous grill (with Berlin style currywurst, beef brochettes and even Czech pork knees). You certainly won’t go hungry during the festival. ELECTRO SALADE Extra! has got another hipster project on its plate this year. A huge, free banquet made only from rejected fruit and vegetables that aren’t fit for sale or are third-hand. This is all to be put together with and by the public. This event aims to promote awareness of food wastage while bringing together people of all backgrounds and generations. It also highlights the fundamental philosophy of DIY life: sharing, awareness, action and recycling. PUT YOUR GUM UP Des affiches collées un peu partout en ville et sur les Posters will be put up all around the city and at 30 11 E ÉDITION 7 – 12 mai 2013, LYON Nuits Sonores venues by day and by night. These posters will contain simple questions such as “Are you having a good night?”, “Did you met the man/ woman of your life at night?” and “Who has been your favourite artist tonight?”. Voting couldn’t be simpler – take a piece of gum, give it a chew and stick it onto the poster’s answer space! POLATIONSHIP The Polaroid camera is an object of curiosity and amusement which creates a unique relationship between the photographer and his/her subject. Behind the scenes at the 2012 festival, we ended up with an unexpected series of portraits of the Nuits Sonores artists thanks to Pierre Humbert. Polationship is a festive exhibition arranged around Pierre’s snapshots. It also hopes to act as an ode to safari photography – you can hire a polaroid camera, snap away during the festival and come and share your photos over brunch. SHORT-CIRCUIT IN THE FIELD In 2500 years, when historians of the future will be looking into the Extra! program, they will wonder why we put on such mysterious events. The idea is to reconstruct a real farm from the Monts-duLyonnais (with the barnyard, straw etc.) in the heart of Lyon. There will be local products for sale, and a DJ stage set up on a Massey Ferguson tractor. OYSTER SONORE You’ve got to wonder why nobody thought of this project earlier. An oyster cabin (with the added bonus of one of the world’s best oyster shuckers), some chilled white wine and a serious sound system fuelled by a handful of top DJs. The world is indeed your oyster! BERLIN MON AMOUR, DIE BIENNALE This declaration of love to the city of Berlin and its music scene (with a live show by Pole and a DJ set by Barbara Preisinger) will take place in the magical Musée Gadagne (TBC). The least we can say is that the friendship between Lyon and Berlin is built on very strong foundations.

It is very important to us to maintain high standards with an element of surprise. We also aim to keep it fresh and in line with the artistic side that holds the festival’s identity together. Since 2003, Nuits Sonores has relentlessly sought out new artistic territories and aesthetics, always keeping new generations of artists and the public in mind. The Arty Farty team continues to build up a solid festival with a global objective, to express opinions and formalise stories and meetings. Each stage has a story to tell and weaves together established and up-and-coming artistic personalities. This intense expressionism unfolds over the course of three nights. The Nuits Sonores programmers have set up nine stages, sometimes in collaboration with special guests (Pedro Winter and Dan Snaith), other festivals and organisations (Oyafestivalen, Partizan) or through the vitality of a certain area (Future Sound of UK). With over 50 artists, the Nuits Sonores program is reaching out to new horizons (Africa, India) and a new generation of emerging artists (Paradis, The Mujeres, Evian Christ) without losing its focus on the local scene (Spitzer, Cape Town Effects, Alto Clark). This multifaceted expressionism brings us a program which acts as a medium between disciplines (particularly by connecting music, scenography, visual creation and graphic design), aesthetics and artistic generations. This modern program knows its roots as well as its potential. It is open to evolution yet remains detached from today’s commercial pressures.

They’ve got their Leanhouse volumes 1 and 2 mixtapes signed to Discobelle, an exceptional remix of their track House Music by Maelstrom as well as a handful of collaborations with Club Cheval. Boston Bun’s sound sets the scene for acid-house, stuffed with overblown bass and 90s drumbeats. 10.30PM / 11.15PM: ALUNAGEORGE (Tri Angle Records / London - England) Live AlunaGeorge is sort of the best of British music at the moment. There’s English bass culture hooked up with the softness of RnB. Their music has been described as a “minimal poly-rhythmic advance”. But one thing is certain, their sound can’t be summed up to one style but rather to a mix of experimental hip hop, 90s RnB and house music. 11.30pm / 12.30am: BRETON A/V LIVE (FatCat Records / London — england) Live Born out of the London squat scene, Breton is a producer group of music and film.

These six crazy Londoners from the Intergalactic Republic of Congo mix booty bass, electro and Gnawa trance. Their chaotic, ecstatic music can transform any space into a highly charged dancefloor. Inspired by Fela Juti, Sun Ra and Suicidal Tendencies, I.R.O.K.’s first album, Yé Yé God Revolution, explores a ferocious and psychotropic kind of afro-punk. This visual and sonorous duo, Gangpol Und Mit, creates a dialogue between Gangpol’s melodic electro and Mit’s angular, colourful cartoon characters. For their project “The 1000 People Band”, they’ve enlisted the services of an army of virtual musicians who are drawn, animated and projected for a synchronised audio-video show as an extension of their last album. 4am / 4.45am : ALTO CLARK (BRK / Lyon — France) Live A cornerstone of the micro-music scene in Lyon, Alto Clark composes tracks that mix rousing melodies, heady layers and ecstatic groove for his next album.

This project, which is only a few years old, broadcasts the planet’s top artists in exceptional small-scale locations on their web TV.

The result is a bank of impressive statistics and some incredible sets. This means the possibility of having a famous DJ’s live feed from home, free, for just the cost of the connection.. 44 more information on nuits-sonores.com NUITS SONORES PRESS KIT night 2 / the circuit The Circuit Electronic has been christened “Night 2: The Circuit”. This change of name matches the new style and organisation that Arty Farty has brought to this essential part of the festival. The philosophy of this new organisation is based on our desire to build up a more intense and pertinent artistic dialogue with various programmers and to co-construct the festival’s second night as a major representation of diversity and local artistic emergence. For this reason, a steering committee was created for this “new circuit”, made up of club and venue programmers from Lyon and its surrounds.

For the past 14 years, we have strived to promote independent and innovative cultural practices, particularly in music, visual arts and graphic design. The Arty Farty team, which this year is made up of 15 full-time staff members, has organised over 200 events in Lyon, in France and also in about 20 cities abroad including Shanghai, Zurich, Berlin, Barcelona, Yokohama and Carthage. We actively support the careers of six artists and carry out consultancy and artistic management projects for businesses, communities, cultural institutions and other events. We have built up a unique set of skills for the integration of cultural projects in an urban environment, particularly for the use and diversion of heritage sites and the revaluation of industrial wastelands. In 2011, Arty Farty collaborated with the European Union to create the European Lab of Festivals which will be known as the European Lab for Cultural Innovation as of 2013. This recent development reflects Arty Farty’s determination to establish itself as a political structure that is tuned in with today’s generations and keen to contribute to the creation of cultural models for the future. press contacts 52 Ambre Duchamp M. : [email protected] T. : +33 (0)6 60 02 81 80 DELPHINE SOKANTHONG M. : [email protected] T. : +33 (0)6 68 20 94 79 Crédit photos : Brice Robert, Nicolas Dartiailh, Denis Chaussende, Kevin Buy In 2003, we created the Nuits Sonores festival w. hich celebrated its tenth anniversary in 2012.
