Piknic #8 (July 1st)

Piknic’s getting even hotter this July, and the Solotech stage will be on fire come the first of the month when Germany’s Keinemusik present a day of fun and good music. First however, prepare to be amazed by the futuristic music of Montreal’s purveyor of balmy sounds ProjectPablo. Then, &Me and Adam Port will step up and take us on a journey through the various shades of underground house. A can’t-miss party from start to finish!

Piknic #9 (July 8th)

As we roll into the heart of summer, Piknic is here to help you sweat it out and have fun in the sun. July 8th starts with the sounds of Montreal’s Laurence Matte at the Solotech stage, followed by Berlin via Toronto’s Bwana, whose funky drum-heavy beats will have you trancing out and falling into a deep groove. Finally, the hip-hop inspired electro rhythms of France’s Brodinski will bring us home, as he cranks the energy up for the day’s grand finale.

At the Moog Audio stage, we’ll be exploring various permutations of funk and soul, as Nana Zen opens up the day with her custom mix of club and R&B styles. Then, Voyage Funktastique will end the day by teaching you how to boogie, mixing up the history of funk until you just can’t help but rush the dance floor.
