[Velkommen til SPOT Festival 2006]

Mellem 700 og 800 bands har ønsket at få spilletid på årets SPOT Festival. Nogle friske fra øvelokalet, andre mere rutinerede og enkelte næsten etablerede. Fælles for alle er ønsketom at udvikle egne muligheder, derfra hvor man hver især befinder sig i karrieren.

Lige så mange branche- og kulturfolk fra fjern og nær vil være tilstede på festivalen.Nogle nystartede inden for deres felt, andre mere rutinerede og mange fra etablerede musikvirksomheder, musikorganisationer, festivaler og medier.

SPOT Festivalen har gennem årene udviklet sig til at være et internationalt anerkendtog betydende møde- og findested. Af flere internationale branchefolk fremhævet forsit høje ”musikalske bundniveau”, og af endnu flere rost for den gode atmosfære og seriøse afvikling.

Det er ikke en selvfølge, at et lille land som Danmark kan være med på internationalt niveau.Det kræver en målbevidst indsats af mange.Det fordrer udholdenhed,og det kræver vilje i mangeled – til nødvendige beslutninger og kompromisser, hvis potentialet skal udnyttes effektivt.

I ROSA – Dansk Rock Samråd er vi stolte af, at SPOT hviler på et bredt samarbejde mellemfrivillige musikelskere, fremsynede danske og internationale branchefolk og et stort udsnitaf landets dygtige og entusiastiske kulturformidlere. Bredden i samarbejdet og bredden imusikken er kimen i SPOT.

Vi håber igen i år, at et stort publikum vil tage imod programmet med nysgerrighed og gøre deres til, at orkestrene spiller over evne – netop på SPOTs mange scener. Og vi byderher velkommen til Svalegangen som ny koncertpartner.

Som noget nyt har vi valgt at gøre torsdagen til en mere integreret del af SPOT ved at afvikle koncerter i både Ridehuset og på Officerspladsen udover indledningen i Musikhuset.

Tak til alle stærke hænder, gode hjerter og betydende bidrag. Velkommen til alle.

[Welcome to the SPOT Festival 2006]

Between 700 and 800 bands applied for this year's festival. Some are fresh out of rehearsals, others more experienced, and a few are nearly established. They all share adesire to advance the opportunities of their respective career stages.

A similar number of music industry representatives and cultural figures from near an far willbe present at the festival. Some are new in their field, others have more experience, and quitea few represent established music companies, music organizations, festivals, and media.

Over the years, the SPOT Festival has evolved to become a significant, internationallyacknowledged meeting point. Several industry reps have emphasized its high 'musical bottom level', and even more have praised the great atmosphere and professional handling.

It is not a foregone conclusion that a small country like Denmark can stay in the race on aninternational level. It takes a determined effort by a lot of people. It calls for perseveranceand takes the will to make descisions and compromise if the potential is to be effecientlyturned to one's advantage.

At ROSA – the Danish Rock Council we are proud that SPOT is supported by a broad cooperation between volunteer music lovers, far-sighted Danish and international industryreps, and a large section of the most competent and enthusiastic promoters of culture.The scope of the cooperation and the range of the music constitute the rudiment of SPOT.

We hope that a large audience will once again welcome the programme with enthusiasmand take part in supporting and animating the bands to deliver their utmost performances– at the many SPOT stages. We also welcome Svalegangen as a new concert partner.

This year, we have chosen to make the Thursday an even bigger part of SPOT by havingconcerts in Ridehuset and Officerspladsen in addition to the opening in Musikhuset.

Thanks to all the strong hands, good hearts, and significant contributions. Welcome everyone!

[Kulturpolitisk fodslag og håndklap til nordisk rockog popmusik i international fremgang og udvikling]

SPOT Festivalen fokuserer på ny nordisk pop- og rockmusik, som netop i disse år er genstand for en stigende international interesse. I den anledning har SPOT Festivalen bedt kulturministrene fra Norge, Sverige og Danmark besvare to spørgsmål omkring nordiskrock- og popmusik:

[Joint Cultural Policy to Further Rapid InternationalProgress of Nordic Rock and Pop Music]

The SPOT Festival focuses on new Nordic pop and rock music, which attracts more and more international attention these years. In that connection The SPOT Festival has asked the ministers of cultural affairs from Norway, Sweden, and Denmark two questions concerning Nordic rock and pop music. Here are their answers.

[A] Musikk fra de nordiske landene blir lagt merke til internasjonalt. Kvalitet ogprofesjonalitet blant nordiske musikere har bidratt til mange internasjonalesuksesser. Disse skaper positive ringvirkninger for nordisk musikkliv. Dettegjør at det blir mer oppmerksomhet om musikk og bidrar til at flere satser.I en næringspolitisk sammenheng er det også viktig at nordisk musikk markerer seg internasjonalt. Dette vil kunne bidra til økt eksport og skapearbeidsplasser som både gir kulturpolitiske og økonomiske resultater.

Music from the Nordic countries is gaining recognition abroad. Quality and professionalism among Nordic artists have contributed to quite a fewinternational success stories. They have a positive ripple effect on Nordicmusic life. It brings about more attention on music and contributes to morepeople taking the chance. From a politico-commercial perspective, it is impor-tant that Nordic music leaves its mark internationally. It will contribute toincreased exports and to the creation of jobs, which will have effects on cul-tural politics and economy alike.

[B] Nordisk musikk blir internasjonalt ofte oppfattet å ha en ”unik sound”. Musikerefra de nordiske landene blir oftere kategorisert som nordiske enn som svenske,danske osv. Det nordiske kulturelle fellesskapet er derfor godt synlig internasjonalt,men kan utnyttes bedre de nordiske landene imellom. Det er en utfordring å nå frampå de store internasjonale markedene for artister fra små land, med små platesels-kaper og små budsjetter. Ved å samarbeide og utnytte det nordiske nettverket og detnordiske hjemmemarkedet, vil en kunne oppnå større volum og viktige synergi-effekter. Nordisk musikksamarbeid fører til at nordiske artister blir bedre kjent i heleNorden. SPOT festivalen er et viktig tiltak for å bidra til det.

On the international front, Nordic music is thought of as having a unique sound.Musicians from the Nordic countries are more often categorized as being Nordic thanas being Swedish, Danish, etc. Therefore, the Nordic cultural community is very salient internationally, which, however, we can benefit even more from. It is a challenge to get into the international markets for artists from small countries, withsmall record companies, and small budgets. By collaborating and utilizing the Nordicnetwork and the Nordic home market, you will be able to achieve a greater volumein terms of growth, production, and significant synergy effects. Nordic music collaboration leads to Nordic artists gaining recognition in all the Nordic countries.The SPOT Festival is an important means in that process.

[spørgsmål / Question B]

Hvorfor er det vigtigt med kendskab til nordisk musik i Norden? /

Why is the mutual awareness of Nordic music important within the Nordic countries?

[spørgsmål / Question A]

Hvorfor er det vigtigt med kendskab til nordisk musik i udlandet (uden for de nordiske grænser)? /

Why is international attention important to Nordic music?

[A] Jag har länge arbetat för att få ut nordisk musik i världen – varför ska man barasatsa på att marknadsföra och exportera skruvar, muttrar och pappersmassa, meninte Cardigans, Timbuktu och the Hives? Ska våra nordiska länder bli framgångsrikautomlands, i allt hårdare konkurrens, måste vi utveckla smarta strategier och igenomtänkt samverkan visa upp det vi är bra på. Och vi har fantastiskt mycketbegåvning på musiksidan här! Vi kan faktiskt stoltsera med några av världens starkaste upphovsmän, vad det gäller både kompositörer, artister, producenter ochvideoregissörer.

For quite a while, I have been working hard to bring Nordic music out into the world.Interms of marketing and export, why focus exclusively on screws, nuts, and paperpulp, and not on The Cardigans,Timbuktu, and The Hives? If our Nordic countries areto succeed on an international level in tough competition, we have to developthought-through strategies and show our strengths by means of tight cooperation.And actually our countries abound with musical talent! We can be proud of havingsome of the most skilled songwriters, artists, producers, and video directors.

[B] All kultur av betydelse har en internationell dimension. Att låta sig influeras,påverkas och inspireras av varandra, kan vara ett sätt att stärka, och utveckladet nordiska musiklivet ytterligare. Jag ser internationaliseringen som enutvecklingsstrategi för dessa områden som vi idag inte har råd att vara utan.Jag vill att det nordiska kulturlivet ska andas i takt med världen. Och jag villbetona ömsesidigheten: det är precis lika viktigt att vi är öppna för intryck somatt vi själva kommer ut och visar upp oss.

All significant culture has an international dimension. To be influenced, affected,and inspired by one another can be one way of reinforcing and developingNordic music to a higher level. I think of internationalisation as a developmentalstrategy for this area, which we cannot be without today. I want Nordic cultural life to breathe at pace with the rest of the world. And I would like tostress: it is just as important that we are open to impression, as it is that wepresent our talents abroad.

[A] Det er ikke så meget et spørgsmål om, hvad Norden kan tilbyde udlandet.De nordiske kunstnere har nemlig brug for den internationale musikscene tilat udvikle sig på. Mødet med et kræsent internationalt publikum er i høj gradmed til at udvikle den enkelte kunstner. Nordisk musik skal derfor være synlig i udlandet for at skabe rum og plads for kunstnerne. Nye musikalskeudtryksformer opstår altid i en musikalsk vekselvirkning, og her skal nordiskmusik både bidrage og modtage. Det bliver både den nordiske og inter-nationale musik bedre af.

It is not so much a question of what the Nordic countries have to offer abroad.Rather, the Nordic artists need the international music scene to evolve. Theirexposure to a choosy audience contributes significantly to the individualartist’s development. Therefore, Nordic music must be visible abroad to create room for the artists. New musical forms of expression always developthrough interaction, and Nordic music should both give and get. Nordic andinternational music alike will benefit from that.

[B] I Norden er vi kulturelt og sprogligt forbundet. Det mener jeg er oplagt atbruge i udviklingen af vore musikere. Her har vi faktisk et udvidet hjemme-marked, der kan holde karrieren i gang for en nordisk sproget kunstner ellervære det oplagte springbræt for en international karriere. Hvis musikken skalhave et nordisk brand, er det åbenlyst, at samarbejdet og inspirationen mellem de nordiske skal fremmes. Det er egenarten, der gør forskellen på detglobale musikmarked, og her har Norden vitterlig noget at byde på.

In the Nordic countries, we are related in terms of culture and language. In myeyes, this fact offers opportunities for the development of our musicians,which it would be a great shame to miss. Here we actually have an expandedhome market, which can assist in keeping the career going for the Nordic artists, or it can be the ideal springboard to an international career.Obviously if the music is to have a Nordic brand, it is necessary to advancethe co-operation and inspiration between the Nordic countries. ‘Specific character’ is what makes the difference on the global music market, and thatis definitely something Nordic music has to offer.

[Åbning – med plads til eksperimentet]SPOT Festival 2006 byder velkommen til en alsidig åbningsaften inden selve 2-dages festivalen – en åbning der fremstår som den eksperimenterende aften, hvor vi kan og vil afprøve nye ideer.Sådan bliver det også i år, hvor tre vidt forskellige indslag er med til at afspejle ROSAs arbejde:

Åbningskoncert i Musikhusets store sal kl. 19.00: Lis Er Stille – talentpræsentation og eksperiment.Un-Pop Classik i Ridehuset kl. 20.00: Udveksling mellem fire europæiske festivaler og grænsenedbrydning – klassisk ensemble spiller med tre vidt forskellige solister/grupper.Danmark-Canada-retur på Officerspladsen kl. 20.00: Musikeksport og udveksling,når to canadiske bands og Figurines spiller – som ”svar” på dansk fremstød i Nordamerika.

[Opening night – with room for experiments]The SPOT Festival 2006 welcomes you to a multi-faceted opening night prior to the main 2 day event– an opening which is the experimental night where we try out new ideas. This opening night won'tbe different – three very different acts will reflect the work of ROSA:

Opening concert in Musikhuset store sal, 19:00 hours: Lis Er Stille – talent presentation and experiment.Un-Pop Classik in Ridehuset, 20:00 hours: Exchange between four European festivals, breaking of borders – a classical ensemble accompanies three very different solo artists/bands.The Denmark-Canada-vice versa at Officerspladsen, 20:00 hours: Music export and exchange with two Canadian bands and Figurines in concert – as a 'reply' to the Danish campaign in North America.

[Un-Pop Classik]Ridehuset – torsdag 1. juni kl. 20.00

Un-Pop Classik er et samarbejde mellem fire europæiske festivaler: SPOT, Eurockéennes (FR), Les Nuits Botaniques (BE) og initiativtageren Benicassim (ES). En solist/gruppe fra hvert land medvirker ved de respektive festivaler med egne numre, men iny-arrangerede udgaver udført med klassisk besætning fra det land, hvor festivalen afvikles. I Danmark er det EnsembleMidtVest, der akkompagnerer Teitur (FO), Venus (BE) og Sunday Drivers (ES). Franskmændene har meldt afbud til SPOT.

[Un-Pop Classik]Ridehuset – Thursday 1 June 20:00

Un-Pop Classik is a collaboration between four European festivals: SPOT, Eurockéennes (FR), Les Nuits Botaniques (BE) andthe principal organizer Benicassim (ES). One solo artist/band from each country performs at the respective festivals with ownmaterial, but in new versions performed together with a classical ensemble from the country where the festival is held. InDenmark, Ensemble Midtvest will accompany Teitur (FO), Venus (BE), and Sunday Drivers (ES). The French have cancelled their SPOT performance.

[Teitur(FO)]Karrierestart / Career began: 2003

Seneste / Latest album:“Stay Under The Stars”, 2006www.teitur.com

Teiturs følelsesladede og let melankolske komposi-tioner hører til i grænselandet mellem pop og viser, ogformidles med en særlig charme og beskedenhed.Singer/songwriteren har etableret sig som Færøernesnye store eksportartikel, har i løbet af de sidste år turneret over hele verden og har bl.a. fået roser i detamerikanske Rolling Stone Magazine.

Teitur’s emotional, rather melancholy compositionsbelong in the borderland of pop and folk, and they areperformed with a unique charm and modesty. The singer/songwriter has established himself as theFaroese Islands’ new great export article, touringworldwide the last couple of years and getting a greatreview in Rolling Stone Magazine.

[Ensemble MidtVest]Dannet / Formed: 2002

www.ensemblemidtvest.dk

Ensemble MidtVest har ét klart mål: at arbejde medklassisk musik i nytænkende rammer. Ensemblet tæl-ler ti unge, talentfulde og erfarne musikere, og udgø-res af en strygekvartet, en blæsekvintet og klaver. Pådenne aften vil ensemblet tage livtag med poppen ogrocken som ”husorkester” for Teitur, The SundayDrivers og Venus.

Ensemble Midtvest’s ambition is to approach classi-cal music in innovative contexts. The ensemble totalsten young, talented and experienced musicians distri-buted on a string quartet, a wind quintet and a piano.On this night, as the backing band of Teitur, TheSunday Drivers and Venus, the ensemble will take onpop and rock

[Venus(BE)]Dannet / Formed: 1997

Seneste / Latest album:“The Red Room”, 2006www.venusmusic.be

Det belgiske rockband Venus er tidligere i deres karriere blevet sammenlignet med Radiohead. Deresseneste albumudspil, der er deres fjerde udgivelse,rummer da også en lignende blanding af blide melodier,musikalsk kraft, intensitet og et indadvendt tekstuni-vers. Kvartetten, der består af vokal/guitar, bas, trommerog violin, er kendt for deres teatralske performance.

From early on in their career, the Belgian rock bandVenus have been compared to Radiohead. Their latestalbum, which is their fourth release, does indeed contain a similar blend of gentle melodies, sheer musical power, intensity and introvert lyrics. The quartet – vocal and guitar, bass, drums, and violin – areknown for their theatrical performance.

[The Sunday Drivers(ES)]Dannet / Formed: 1999

Seneste / Latest album:“Little Heart Attacks”, 2005www.thesundaydrivers.com

Spanske The Sunday Drivers har efterhånden mangeår, adskillige festivaljobs og en europæisk udgivelse påbagen. Kvintetten, der ofte sammenlignes med bandssom Blur og Oasis, henter en stor del af deres musikalske inspiration i 60’ernes og 70’ernes rock-musik og bæres frem af den karismatiske forsangerJero Romeros dybe og kraftfulde vokalpræstationer.

By now Spanish The Sunday Drivers have manyyears, several festival gigs, and a European releaseunder their belt. The quintet, who are often comparedto bands like Blur and Oasis, find a lot of their musicalinspiration in 60s and 70s rock music and have amajor asset in their charismatic singer Jero Romero’sdeep and powerful voice.

[Åbningskoncert]Musikhusets Store Sal – torsdag 1. juni kl. 19.00

Et par begejstrede teenagere gjorde ROSA opmærksom på Lis Er Stille. Gruppens formåen blev dernæst tjekket af,og derfra opstod tanken om at præsentere gruppen som festivalens åbningskoncert – i en ramme med perfekt lyd ogspeciel lyssætning til at understøtte den billedskabende musik. Et sats, men: – Jeg véd de kan bære det. Og det er nødvendigt at eksperimentere med form og indhold og tage chancer på musikkens vegne. Ellers udvikler vi os ikke,siger ROSAs leder Gunnar Madsen.

[Opening concert]Musikhuset Store Sal – Thursday 1 June – 19:00

A couple of excited teenagers made ROSA aware of Lis Er Stille. Then ROSA checked out the band during rehearsals,and hence, got the idea to present the music of Lis Er Stille as the festival's opening concert – in surroundings, which,through perfect sound and unique lighting, can enrich the picturesque music of the band. A daring chance, but:“I'm sure they will succeed. And it is necessary for us to keep experimenting with the form and content, and to takechances when it comes to music. Otherwise we won't evolve”, says Gunnar Madsen, managing director of ROSA.

[Danmark-Canada-retur]Officerspladsen – torsdag 1. juni kl. 20.00

Udveksling af netværk og gensidig promotion er vigtige redskaber for både MXD – Music Export Denmarkog ROSA i arbejdet med at formidle dansk musik internationalt. Efter et succesrigt fremstød på bl.a.Canadian Music Week i Toronto, i selskab med Kira & The Kindred Spirits, Pernille Gunvad, The Blue Van ogTina Dickow er Figurines tilbage på SPOT med to nyere Canadiske bands Holy Fuck og Elliott Brood.

[You Say You Want a Revolution]Om protestsangens uautoriserede historie (og usikre fremtid)Lørdag kl. 16:00 - 17:00 [Århus Kunstbygning]

Fra revolutionære til evolutionære, fra soldater til slaver og fra hippier til hipsters – protestsangens uautoriserede historieer skrevet i blod, sved og udstødnings-os i både Danmark og USA. Men kan den stadig inspirere progressivt-sindede til at påvirke de politiske strukturer og dermed skabe social forandring, eller er disse stemmer gjort tavse af grådigemediemogulers smags-diktat? Modereret af Neill C. Furio vil tre danske stemmer debattere protestsangens sagnoms-pundne fortid, sølle nutid og usikre fremtid.

[You Say You Want a Revolution]The Unauthorized History (And Uncertain Future) Of The Protest SongSaturday 16:00 - 17:00 [Århus Kunstbygning]

From revolutionaries to evolutionaries, from soldiers to slaves, and from hippies to hipsters, the unauthorized history of the protest song is written in blood, sweat, and exhaust fumes across the Danish and American landscapes.However, can it still inspire progressive minds to move the political structures that affect social change or have greedymedia conglomerates dictating the taste silenced these voices of dissent? Poet-moderator Neill C. Furio and three Danishvoices will debate the storied past, sorry present, and uncertain future of the protest song.
