Dji Sam Soe Urban Jazz Crossover 2010 is coming! Following the huge success of two previous series, the third year edition is coming with many new innovations, ideas and lineups to talk about.
Dji Sam Soe Urban Jazz Crossover has emerged as one of the big and important annual events in Indonesia. The concept of finding the fine blend between jazz and other genres as far and as wide as you can imagine has proved to be able to reach the heart of listeners from various genres, including the youngsters. Urban Jazz Crossover can bring the whole new perception of jazz, letting them know that jazz can be suitable to them as well. Last year we covered Urban Jazz Crossover in 4 out of 5 cities: Medan, Bandung, Jakarta and Surabaya where we witnessed the amazing response by the audiences with our own eyes. Everything seems perfect about this event. The careful selection of artists from various genres, the amazing arrangements, the well prepared rundowns, the awesome 3D stage concept, lightings and so on. Let’s not forget that Urban Jazz Crossover has always been presented with many surprises. And what amaze us more is the very cheap ticket price. For an event as big as this, it makes us wonder how they could manage to deliver it with a very affordable price. You can also get the “buy 1 get 1” offer that will valid until the d-day. Satu Panggung (One Stage), Multi Genre is something we have to keep in mind when we talk about this event. A night of fusion tunes is what we’re going to get as the result. This is the event for the open minded music lovers, this is the event for everyone who are curious to see how jazz can amazingly fused in harmony with other genres. And just in case if you wonder, the event will still be held on 5 cities just like last year.
The lineups will be different too for Urban Jazz Crossover 2010. Some of the playing artists were presented at the conference. The living jazz legend Indra Lesmana who recently just started the Indonesia’s Jazz Movement through the shape of jam sessions, the R&B star Ello and the new sensation Sandhy Sondoro were there representing the other participating artists. Besides these three artists, there will be many other top class musicians/singers to perform. There will be the R&B diva Dewi Sandra, Kikan “Cokelat”, Ipang “BIP”, the great female violist Maylaffayza, DJ Cream (Reza Arnanda Putra), rapper Boogieman (Pradana Rizky), Yuyun and Drew. Last but not least, and here’s the big news: there will be another legend/music icon besides Indra Lesmana, he is the one and only ACHMAD ALBAR!
