The turquoise bay of Buljarica beach in Budva will host, from Thursday, August 30th until Saturday, September 1st, among others, one of the greatest producers in the history of the music industry, Nile Rodgers and his band, Chic. It is almost impossible to make a selection of hits created by this artist, sung by the greatest stars in the world, such as David Bowie, Madonna, Duran Duran, Kylie Minogue and many others. The eternal tracks such as “Le Freak”, “Get Lucky”, “I Want Your Love”, “We Are Family”, “Let’s Dance” – are just some of the songs that the audience of this year’s festival will sing along with this great artist. Performances of the festival dance scene kings and officially the best DJ duo in the world, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike are certainly ones that are talked about for years after, and they are preparing one of those unforgettable experiences for Sea Dance as well. We are impatiently waiting for them to spin tracks such as “Complicated”, “The Hum”, “Mammoth”, and the stage is bound to start boiling when “Tremor” begins. The Addiko Main Stage powered by the Tourist organization of Budva will host the unstoppable rock author of the new generation and the star of Exit Festival, Alice Merton. Her anthem, “No Roots” left its mark last year, conquering charts the world over, and her new hit “Lash Out” is doing the same right now. Her energetic performance is bound to win the hearts of fans at the very finale of the festival.
The symbol of Berlin and the leading electronic music producer of the world, Paul Kalkbrenner, has prepared a bombastic live performance for his first arrival to Montenegro with his multiplatinum hit, “Sky & Sand”, and a list of seven studio albums that have been pushing the boundaries of electronic music for the last two decades. The audience will have the opportunity to listen to the masterpieces from the recently published “Parts of Life” album, the one that thrilled millions of fans that follow this famous Berliner on social networks. The excitement is tangible when it comes to the excellent line-up of the No Sleep Sea Dance Stage Awakened by Guarana, lead by the icon of electronic sound and one of the leading DJs of today, Nina Kraviz! Her furious techno sets, apart from having main positions on all leading electronic festivals, are also starting to reach the greatest Wonders of the world. This year, Nina became the first DJ star in history to perform at the Great Wall of China. Alongside her, the No Sleep beach will feature a new generation of stars, such as Dax J, Antigone, Francois X, Eagles & Butterflies, Shlomo, PTU live, Sofija Rodia and others.
Straight from the top of the world charts, the hits of the Belgian superstars, Lost Frequencies: “Are You With Me”, “Reality”, “Crazy”, “Beautiful Life” are coming to make the atmosphere at the Sea Dance Festival red hot. After his performance at Exit’s Main Stage, Burak Yeter, Amsterdam hitmaker of Turkish origins, will join him as well. His single “Tuesday” has had an almost hypnotic effect on listeners throughout the year and has become one of the most listened to. The same rhythm will continue with the DJ duo Filatov & Karas and their international hits: “Don’t Be So Shy”, “Time Won’t Wait”, “Satellite” and many others.
The Festival is going to see an incredible line-up of regional and local performers, with Van Gogh, Bajaga and Instruktori, Hladno Pivo, Rambo Amadeus, Marko Nastić, Sajsi MC, Marko Louis, Stereo Banana, Krešo Bengalka, Vojko V, Who See, Ilija DJoković, Lag, DJ Jock, Be Goog & Gilerz, Aleksandar Grum, Sugar Lobby and many others.
