Roskilde 2012

Friendly Fires and tUnE-yArDs are now officially on the bill for 2012!

Roskilde Festival introduces new stage


Apollo is the name of the new music stage that focuses on electronic music.
We
present a new stage at this year's festival. Apollo – named after the
god of music in Greek mythology – continues our tradition of having an
innovative, curious music profile as well as a dynamic use of the land
that lies underneath Scandinavia’s biggest music event.


Apollo will primarily present electronic music.


We have promoted leading electronic artists since
the early nineties; from The Orb and Daft Punk to Tiësto whom we
secured an international breakthrough. Apollo will continue this
tradition and present artists that have a big sound but do not take up
much space on a stage.


Flexible outdoor stage
Apollo
will be located at the campsite. During the festival warm-up days as a
mobile stage – and during the last four days fixed situated at the
so-called Agora C near the skatepark.


With Apollo, we now have a flexible outdoor stage
that can handle both smaller, introvert electronic acts and a large,
festive crowd. The new stage will have a capacity between 3000 and 5000
– its closest stage relatives, size-wise, are Odeon and Pavilion.


Apollo Countdown: mobile "ninja stage" during warm-up
Already
during the warm-up days you can experience electronic music with a
Roskilde Festival quality stamp. Apollo Countdown is active the same
days as the Pavilion Junior stage and becomes what our stage section
calls some kind of mobile "ninja stage" that has a new location every
day. Following the tradition of Pavilion Junior, focus is on young
Scandinavian talents. When the rest of the festival programme begins,
Apollo becomes more stable and is fixed at the same spot.


A new member joins Roskilde Festival’s stage family.
The idea for Apollo is launched after sparring with enthusiasts from
the electronic music scene, and the outline of the stage is drawn in
this network. We are very happy about this new platform for today's
sharpest electronic acts and we hope you will like it as well.

Vamosssssss Ya era hora, coño.

Mañana vuelven las confirmaciones tras el paron navideño.

First Danish bands are ready for Roskilde Festival 2012


I Got You On Tape, Larsen & Furious Jane and an acid rock package from the label El Paraiso are added to the programme.
After a December full of international heavyweights, we start the new year with a batch of Danish bands.


I GOT YOU ON TAPE retakes Roskilde
Festival as a band that risen significantly from the ranks since their
last visit at the festival in 2009. The Danes are well on their way to
becoming central on the Nordic alternative scene. I Got You On Tape’s
new album is called Church Of The Real, and with a sporadic
disco inspiration, church organ and catchy choruses, the well-playing
four-piece will ensure a grandiose atmosphere with their melodic poppy
rock songs.


LARSEN & FURIOUS JANE is a
well-kept secret of the lucky few. Not for long. With a solid grasp on
songwriting, Larsen & Furious Jane have created a handful of albums
that uses well-written, absolutely non-Danish sounding indie rock to
explore the rather disgruntled mood as it sounds coming from a group of
Danes.


EL PARAISO is a new Danish record
label focusing on experimental, mind-expanding music. From the label’s
psychedelic menu we present acid rockers CAUSA SUI, the band EL PARAISO ENSEMBLE put together especially for Roskilde 2012 and the kraut and post-rock trio PAPIR. Look forward to a package full of thick, cosmic acid from some of Denmark's most respected underground bands.

Roskilde Festival
We add The Cure, araabMUZIK and Cold Specks to the 2012 programme.

Pués me parece que hoy igual es el dia de The Cure en España

Yo también creo que van a caer en algún festival en España, no sé... Aunque yo del Roskilde me traería Bon Iver

Bueno, The Cure en el Orange es algo que aun no habia visto. Me parece correcto.

Pues no:

Pinta a The Cure el jueves 5....

Esto se empieza a calentar y de que manera , los vuelos a 135€

Un saludo y a disfrutar

Calla, que igual no estoy el jueves en Roskilde (igual que igual no estoy ningun dia, todo sea dicho). Pero bueno, la cosa no va mal por el momento.

Pues preveo uno de los mejores carteles de los ultimos años , yo seguire al tran tran a ver que pasa al final, pero solo con 2 nombres ya me tira más que los ultimos años.

El Boss + los Cure = Naranja

Un saludo y a disfrutar

Y Bjork, Bon Iver....pinta a cartelón

No, si esta claro. Creo que ademas la Heavy Rock va a seguir adelante (igual fuera de MC, eso ya no lo se), pero bueno, Pearl Jam tocan en Berlin 4 y 5 julio. Me doleria perderme a The Cure en el Orange, pero sería un daño colateral aceptable.



Como molan las pajas mentales. Seguramente hasta junio no pueda saber nada, en cualquier caso.

Garbage no van a ir, les ha confirmado el Northside (al igual que a kasabian).

A ver que anuncian mañana...

Jo, el Northside este año tiene buen cartel, de estar allí iría de cabeza

Pista de mañana: When we say legendary, you think stadium act. Think out of the box - and check back tomorrow to see what we actually think.

ni idea

THE ROOTS (US) play at Roskilde
Festival as the only Scandinavian job this summer. The American hip hop
collective rarely visits Europe nowadays. The performance at Roskilde
Festival will be a welcome opportunity to see The Roots where they are
best. On stage. ?uestlove, Black Thought and co lead the way when it
comes to hip hop packed with hot neo-soul, social indignation, humour,
funk and improv-minded jazz. Many people call The Roots the best live
band of hip hop for their swing and rock band feeling. You now have a
chance at Roskilde Festival to experience why that description is quite
fitting.


JONATHAN JOHANSSON (S) has already
conquered lots of pop hearts with his elegant and catchy pop. With his
Swedish lyrics and tasteful 80s-leaning arrangements, Johansson has
also attracted attention all the way across the Atlantic. Jonathan
Johansson continues the Swedish tradition of writing superior, slightly
melancholic pop songs with a big aim. He stylishly and coolly distills
romance and soul into black shiny pop songs, making fans of Depeche
Mode and New Order cheer.

Joder The Roots. Esos seguro que no hacen nada en España.

Joder ya podían caer en el FIB

Ah y ya tengo en casa y usando, mi llavero con un trozo del escenario Orange original, que me gane por el concurso de adivinanzas de este año durante el mes de diciembre.

Me debian de dar una placa como Roskilde Man en España

The Roots por Europa!! Vamoss!!
