May 4, 2022 - As the much anticipated 10th-anniversary edition fast approaches, Dimensions Festival 2022 unveils the stage breakdowns for its return to The Garden Resort of Tisno this September.
One of the stars of the festival is of course the location, a beautiful natural bay on the Dalmatian coastline. The glistening seas, sweeping beach, and pine forests make for a gorgeous background to the music which comes via an array of boat parties, baking sunshine, beachside sessions by day, and star-lit skies for open-air dancing at the cult Barbarella's Discotheque by night. All of this happens with Dimensions' famous attention to detail in terms of light, sound, and production.
On Thursday things kick off on The Beach hosted by cult underground house crew Butter Side Up and key associates including Francesco Del Garda, Laurine & Cecilio, Truly Madly, and founder Hamish next to fellow deep digger Toby, while the Olive Grove welcomes Leeds bar Outlaws Yacht Club which is famous for hosting eclectic DJs who play all manner of weird and wonderful records. Meanwhile, Cosmos sees Eris Drew & Octo Octa bring their euphoric T4T LUV NRG label and party with artists like Russell E.L. Butler & ADAB.
Friday will see The Beach hosted by Heels & Souls, one of London’s foremost not-for-profit parties, and the DJ duo of Ben Croft and Patrick Forrester. They have a live show from Japanese master Soichi Terada, and more from Tama Sumo and Jamie Tiller, while Olive Grove welcomes Kalahari Oyster Cult, an Amsterdam label known for its no-frills but highly effective sounds. They host the likes of Marie Montexier, Adam Pits, and Liquid Earth with a live show from Sansibar. Meanwhile, in the open-air Barbarellas, mobile Berlin record store, and DJ duo The Ghost host with Gene on Earth's Limousine Dream label, and Sweely and Sugar Free also line up. It's a cutting-edge electro affair at Cosmos with Helena Hauff b2b with DJ Stingray 313, and live shows from Radioactive Man and The Exaltics.
The same stage on Saturday sees fabric London's world-renowned bass night FABRICLIVE bring dBridge, Djrum, LCY and Jossy Mitsu, while Bristol's cult garage specialists and acclaimed party and label crew Dr. Banana host on The Beach with Dr Banana b2b Alec Falconer, Jeremy Sylvester, Eliza Rose and more. The Olive Grove brings underground sounds from Desyn, Joe Delon, Gwenan, Mother Earth, Rubi & Cleymoore and the influential Truants blog lines up techno from Karenn live, Batu, Mor Elian and more at Barbarellas.
Cosmos on Sunday is the place for bass and jungle from pioneers Mala, Sherelle, DJ Storm, and Dimensions Soundsystem, The Beach welcomes Marcellus Pittman, Bradley Zero, Paula Tape, Ruf Dug, Nabihah Iqbal, and more and it is a revered online platform, event series and producer crew Trommel who bring minimal sounds to the Oliver Grove with Binh, Quest, Anthea, Unai Trotti, and Junkie Inoue.
Monday is when the famously friendly and community-minded Welsh festival freerotation hosts Cosmos with DVS1, Blawan, Pariah, Move D, founders Steevio & Suzybee live and more, then critically acclaimed Dutch party starters VBX and Slapfunk combine their considerable know-how on The Beach with Raresh, Sonja Moonear, Youandewan, Huerta, Christian AB and more.
