29th Aug – 2nd Sept / 5th – 9th Sept
Located in the stunning surroundings of Fort Punta Christo, Croatia, Outlook returns this year to celebrate its sixth birthday. With a line up including some of the best in house, techno, reggae, garage and grime, every taste is pretty much catered for. There’s also a major hip hop contingent this time round – including Mos Def, The Pharcyde, Pharoah Monch, Talib Kweli and Jay Electronica.
Dimensions starts three days later on the same site, and is shaping up to just as good as, if not better than its older brother. Looking to capitalise on last year’s inaugural success, the line-up boasts some of the most innovative producers doing the rounds right now. In addition to the techno stylings of Ben Klock, Karenn and Efdemin, the lighter end of 4/4 music is represented by Floating Points, Move D, Mr Scruff and John Heckle. But I’d say the most exciting prospect is the Detroit tour de force, comprised of Moodymann, Model 500, Theo Parrish, Omar-S and Rick Wilhite. Silly good.
Tickets are £135 each / £245 for both – check out the websites for more info – Outlook / Dimensions
