I am Hip Hop Magazine have teamed up with Sound­wave Croa­tia 2017 for an exclus­ive giveaway for our read­ers. WIN a pair of tick­ets to the Music fest­iv­al Sound­wave Croa­tia 2017! Simply email us at iamhiphopmagazine@gmail.com with the name of the act you are most excited to see. THE LINE UP IS BIG THIS YEAR… You do not want to miss this!

The sub­lime Sound­wave Fest­iv­al returns to the beau­ti­ful coastal idyll of Tisno this sum­mer, mark­ing its 9th sea­son in Croa­tia. Indic­at­ive of the long-run­ning event’s ambi­tion, Sound­wave has cur­ated its most inspired lineup ever, includ­ing genre-lead­ing live bands, icon­ic artists of immense repute, scene-defin­ing DJs and some of the new gen­er­a­tion of tal­ent burst­ing through the eth­er. As one of the region’s most revered and estab­lished fest­ivals, it is not rest­ing on even one laurel, with Soundwave’s heart beat­ing around music­al explor­a­tion in an odys­sey of the known and the unexpected.

Through the sun-kissed days and sul­try nights, Sound­wave segues across broken beat, reg­gae, afro, house, disco and acid jazz, to hip-hop, soul, funk, drum and bass and more, with a wide-open music­al atti­tude to its guests. Such a vibrantly open music­al approach, explor­ing a range of music sel­dom heard in the Adri­at­ic region, has cul­tiv­ated a dis­tinctly dif­fer­ent audi­ence from across the world; if any­thing, Sound­wave is a beatif­ic hol­i­day exper­i­ence with an amaz­ing music soundtrack, blend­ing the two togeth­er as one.

Hav­ing already revealed their most adven­tur­ous and ambi­tious lineup to date, Sound­wave is now very proud to announce its series of 13 boat parties tak­ing place in July. The shim­mer­ing waters of the immense Adri­at­ic form the back­drop to the fest­iv­al, with The Garden’s gently slop­ing site lead­ing all the way to its pristine beach. Wheth­er it’s the incan­des­cent sun’s rays glit­ter­ing on the sur­face by day or the lumin­ous face of the moon and stars by night, the voy­ages are simply an essen­tial ele­ment of Sound­wave, whose rich­ness and diversity spreads across the sound­scape; cov­er­ing broken beat, reg­gae, afro to acid jazz, hip-hop, soul, funk, drum and bass and more, the fest­iv­al is a har­mo­ni­ous and beatif­ic escape which seam­lessly merges a sub­lime hol­i­day and music­al escape like no oth­er. The voy­ages take place dur­ing the day and night, and tick­ets are on sale now.

Blessed with crys­tal-clear azure Adri­at­ic waters, sizz­ling sun­shine and star-lit night skies, the idyll­ic and intim­ate Garden Resort set­ting wel­comes a glob­al crowd of music lov­ers and adven­ture seekers to the beau­ti­ful town of Tisno, with lots of great places to stay and sump­tu­ous food and drink. The site itself has the incred­ible water-side beach bar, where you are so close to the sea you are almost dan­cing in it, and cosy curl of beach which looks out over the bay. The site’s main stage is a little way behind, per­fect for head­line acts, and nearby nestled under the can­opy of trees is the Olive Grove stage. It’s a beau­ti­ful loc­a­tion, everything built around nature, grow­ing like the envir­on­ment around it, rich with intim­acy and a sense of won­der. And a short drive away is the incred­ible Barbarella’s club, a fully open air space powered by Funkion One.

There’s snor­kelling, diving and fish­ing to enjoy, or a vis­it to the sur­round­ing islands is easy by rent­ing a small boat and a trip to one of the immensely beau­ti­ful nearby nation­al parks such as Krka and Kor­nati, with the his­tor­ic cit­ies of Zadar and Split close by too.
