Vortex Open Source will once again celebrate the summer solstice with an all-encompassing psychedelic experience through music, art and dance - A gathering of the Tribe from all corners of Mother Earth. For five days, step into a Vortex of transcendence with a kaleidoscope of colour.

Enjoy three music arenas, hidden in the magical forest, namely the “Circle of Life”, that will take you on musical journeys with a choice of weaving through the rhythms and melodies of the “Circle” dancefloor’s psychedelic trance, foot-grooving psy-tech and techno at the “Headspace” floor or soul-shifting, holistic and ambient mysticism at the “Heartspace”.

Broken Recordz, is the alias of Ruald Kruger and Karl Fritzenkotter. A project created from the mutual passion and love, for underground music!
