OPAL Memories 2024

(DAW-less hardware) BRoKKR b2b DJZu (Hybrid) 

Live recording - 10/08/2024 @ Festival OPAL 2024   

We had a blast performing our HardKorrigans liveset during the OPAL festival of 2024. The crowd gave us so much energy and we had a lot of fun playing it :)

Thanks to all the dancers in front of the speakers and for all the nice feedback, cheers and love we received during and after the performance !

----------------
So.. What or who are the korrigans ?  
(the plural of Korrigan in breton language is actually 'korriganed')

If you search for these mythical creatures in Brittany's folklore, you can read or hear stories like these :  

“At nightfall the Korrigans emerge from their underground kingdom and launch into frenetic dances around a fire, wild sarabands and joyful debauchery, all accompanied by songs until the early morning. 

It's their dances that leave the so-called witch's rings, circles formed of mushrooms which grow 20 to 40 centimeters per year.  

If a man disturbs them during these ceremonies, the Korrigans offer him a challenge which, if successful, allows him to make a wish and join the party. But if he fails, the man is taken to an underground prison with no hope of deliverance."

So.. if you feel like you belong, let's join the HardKorrigans dance !

GymTonic'n'Bass : Une création née d'une idée toute simple lors du dernier événement Opal. Une session unique où cardio et basses se mêlent pour une expérience inoubliable. 
Entre sueur, fou-rires et énergie collective, cette animation est devenue bien plus qu'un simple exercice : un moment de pure convivialité et de joie, où chaque mouvement et chaque goutte de sueur étaient synonymes de plaisir partagé. 

Rejoignez-nous pour revivre ce mélange explosif de sport et de musique !
Un, deux, trois...Go !

-  Opal Festival 2024 - 
The sun goes down and you expect your artist friend to play his live in front of the crowd. Unfortunately nothing goes right as expected. You see him with panic on his face. 
"Have you got your key?" he says... oh no!

Long story short, his live project could not launch. 
So here is a recording of what followed : an improvised performance of my own, and the very first I upload on SC with Isteral as a nickname. 
There's some punchy Organic house leaning towards progressive techno and tech house with some vibes of indie house. All at 124BPM continuing 

Lots of randomnesss and happy encounters in that music selection. Tough it smade some arms move in the air and some feet stomp the grass, so I decided to upload it.
Enjoy!
