Reggae Pon Di Hills

Din 2009, Reggae pon di Hills a adunat in fiecare vara, amatori de sunete cu influenta jamaicana din Romania si nu numai.

Pe dealurile din Teliu, pentru a V-a editie a evenimentului, RPDH revine in 2013 in 2,3 si 4 august in aceasi locatie incarcata cu vibratii pozitive.

La program, avem selectii de roots reggae, rub-a-dub, digital sau stepper, sub soare si stele. Mai mult decat atat, scopul evenimentului, de la infintarea acestuia si pana in prezent, este promovarea muzicii si a valorilor care au adus o mica insula din caraibe in prim plan mondial.

Primul artist confirmat pentru editia Reggae pon di Hills 2013 este englezul EL FATA.

“It’s the sheer joyousness of El Fata’s music that hits you first, an impact created by thewarm sincerity of his vocals, and a succession of uplifting melodies,conscious lyrics,and blend of musical styles that embraces reggae,funk,dancehall,pop,jazz,andAfrican beats. “World music” is a term that is now over-subscribed,except it isimpossible to describe what El fata does any other way.That is because his inspirationis liable to arrive from anywhere. It is universal, and so too,is his audience,since hismusic is all exclusive and everyone is welcome,irrespective of nationality or creed. Born in Lagos,he started out as a drummer in his school band,During his teens,hediscovered reggae music and turned singer after being inspired by Jamaican acts suchas Michael Rose, Don Carlos, Gregory Isaacs, Bob Marley, Cocoa Tea and DennisBrown. At the age of nineteen, he was fronting a band that toured the country,performing a mix of original material and cover versions. Three years later,in 1996after their residensy at the Lagos Hilton came to an end, he left for father’s home townin the Ivory Coast and embarked on a solo career.It was there he began composing songs in both English and French, and recorded hisdebut album, The coming of El fata, which appeared in 1999. He and The LivingSpirit band were a popular draw at festivals and concerts throughout the Ivory Coastuntil 2004, when the worsening political situation necessited a move to England andchance encounter with leftfield reggae outfit Bamjimba. Wakey Wakey, recorded andmixed at the Mad Professor’s Ariwa studio,was their first collaboration. In betweenappearing with Riddim Tuffa, Jahtari, Mungos’s Hi-fi, El fata then voiced songs for the second Bamjimba album,Routes,released 2006,which brought him to the attention of different Sound systems and Record label all across Europe and Japan.
