INFOPROG PIKNIC #8 - JULY 3, 2016

Canada day long-weekend got you charged up? All settled in after moving day and ready to celebrate? Well, your friends at Piknic Electronik have got you covered with a massive day under the Calder featuring an all-star cast of DJs ready to make you groove. Odile Myrtil is first up on the Solotech stage, combining her passion for new school club music, R&B and more into a highly futuristic journey into the freshest sounds imaginable. Next up, Cologne’s Lena Willikens will then take us beyond the stars with her combination of experimental chops, visceral house and left-field techno groove. Finally, Paris’ Louisahhh will bring her peak-time anthems and techno punk stylings to Montreal, effortlessly sliding from sexiness to toughness at the drop of a beat.

But of course, one stage of fun just wouldn’t be enough for our loyal Piknic fans. That’s why we’re presenting DJ Luv’s Records over at the Vidéotron Mobile stage, highlighting a collective of true crate diggers and beat junkies, whose carefully curated collection of wax is certain to have everyone bouncing, young and young-at-heart alike. Moonstarr will set the stage with his interpretations of broken soul, techno, and hip hop, guaranteeing some neck snapping and hip winding action rooted in the deepest of grooves. Then, Sweet Daddy Luv himself will take the stage with a selection of gems ranging from house to boogie and beyond!
