“The MADEIRADIG Festival is a unique Adventure in extra-ordinary Music. Each December the Portuguese island – celebrated as the ‘paradise island’ and ‘floating garden’ – is transformed into a hotbed of digital culture. The festival on the storied volcanic island, located in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, features stunning and inimitable line-up, a landscape to match and attractive spring temperatures. This is an avantgarde Trip through the world of serious new & contemporary music.”
YUKI at MADEIRADIG – Festival for Digital Music and Art
We were at MADEIRADIG, for the first time, in 2009. We have immediately connected with the spirit of the event. The wonderful organization, the friendly staff of Estalagem Ponta do Sol, the magnificent location, the endless ocean view, the concerts, everything was perfectly welcoming.
Meeting Rafael Biscoito, the director and programmer of the festival, was essential to establish a strong bond to the whole event. We treasure the friendship that came out of it. We were happily convinced to come back in 2010.
Therefore, YUKI became a Madeiradig’s partner in 2010. A special edition of a YUKI under-arm laptop bag (the MD10) was designed for the festival as a gift for musicians and Dj’s. Mauricio Marques, the joyful director and producer, was also a key element to make everything work together.
At the 2011 edition of the festival YUKI launched the Combolap PS (a backpack with a laptop folder). We had a great feedback from the musicians and the public.
We feel the MADEIRADIG as a fulfilling lifetime experience made possible by everyone involved: crew, musicians, public and friends. See you in 2012.
