  • Les Siestes Électroniques will host a series of showcases in Seoul from September 22th through 24th. Launched in 2002 in Toulouse, the free open-air event has since expanded to Paris's Musée du Quai Branly, where organisers have been setting up shop every summer for the past five years—read Aaron Coultate's feature about the event series here. In September, they will head to Seoul for a series of showcases taking place within the scope of the 2015-2016 France-Korea Year, celebrating 130 years of diplomatic relations between the two countries. First up it's Lyon beatmaker LB aka LABAT and Toulouse collective From Loft To Paradise, who will kick off the series at Platoon Sonnendeck on September 22nd. They'll play that night alongside Korean artists Conan and Tobias Kalleder. Ed Banger's Feadz and French L.I.E.S. affiliate Voiski will then headline the 23rd and 24th at Cakeshop and vurt. respectively. RA will be heading to Seoul in November as part of our In Residence series. Our time at Mystik begins on November 3rd with Dixon, RA's number one DJ of the past three years.
