98 days left for the festival 💐

Today we woke up with something very important to tell you.... And that is that there are ONLY 98 days left for the festival! Yes, we know, time goes by very fast and we are getting closer to returning to the Parc del Fòrum and celebrating together our favorite weekend of the year 💐

That's why we bring you a summary of everything that has happened in the last month, from new music releases to our fantastic collaboration with Josemi Online, and featuring Teki Latex, Amyl & the Sniffers, Lil Tjay's tour, and our little street adventures 👀

We took a walk and put you to the test. 
Which artist from the lineup is playing?
Some of you didn't get a single one right, so give it a go and check who's playing!

Where to start? With Party de plaisir, one of those albums that you know you can play at any party and triumph.

What you should know: In his promotional photos Teki Latex encourages us not to take him seriously. But it takes a lot of skill to do slapstick and not lose the vibe on the dancefloor. Because, at the end of the day, both comedy and electronica are a matter of accuracy and tempo, and when you're behind the decks it’s no joke.

What you don't necessarily need to know, but it's cool: The graphic design of his Sound Pellegrino label was inspired by that of the very serious Deutsche Grammophon. Outrage with substance.

Why is he at Primavera Sound?  Because there aren't many people capable of making you laugh and dance at the same time. And for the morbid curiosity of whether he will start with J'en sais rain, the surprising, rapped ballad he has just released.

You'll like him if you like... Gonzales, trolling, chilled Gallic humour.

Do you have your ticket?

Tione Merritt was born in the spring of 2001 in the borough of Fordham, in the Bronx, not too far from where the story usually places the birthplace of hip-hop. These coordinates undoubtedly marked his childhood, but now, globally known as Lil Tjay , Merritt actually personifies the new times of the genre. He is a rapper, yes, but one moulded in the gen-Z way. His story, more than in the Bronx, began on the internet: when Soundcloud became too small for him (which was quick, at the age of 16, when Resume spread like wildfire across the platform), he conquered YouTube. And then TikTok.

Lil Tjay's rise has been as frenetic as the drill beats with which he is often associated due to his friendship with Pop Smoke and Fivio Foreign, although his speciality is, in fact, something else: ultra-melodic, practically sung rap, with choruses that could be envied by a pop star. Or the new obsession of anyone who misses the golden age of Usher and Nelly as the most romantic r&b troubadours. After a 2023 in which he released his third album and collaborated with Ice Spice, Lil Tjay is ready to give the biggest concerts in Spain of his career.  On 7th May he will perform at La Riviera in Madrid and on 8th May at Razzmatazz in Barcelona.

TUESDAY 7th MAY - MADRID (LA RIVIERA)
WEDNESDAY 8th MAY - BARCELONA (RAZZMATAZZ)

 ✦ BONUS TRACK:  Did you know that... Derby Motoreta's last album Hilo negro was mastered by the wizard of 21st century hard-rock chrome Brian Lucey, who had previously worked with Arctic Monkeys and The Black Keys? A real treat.
