Led by Dejan Tamše, of the StoP – Slovenian Percussion Project, the festival more or less takes place at the Dom II. slovenskega tabora Žalec. An additional venue is the Savinov likovni salon, where post-festivals exhibitions sometimes take place.
Programme
The festival has until now invited artists from Taiwan, Brazil, the United States, Mexico and numerous European countries. It is, furthermore, often amongst the initiators for projects like the Faces and Places, which featured the SToP Slovene Percussion Project, the Studio Percussion Graz (AT) and guest musicians who came to Europe as refugees or migrants.
Some of the guests in recent years were Funky Currywurst Brothers (AT, DK), Percussive (BE), Odaiko (ES), Groovetrotters (DE, AT), Quatuor Beat (FR), Sudar Percussion (HR), Percossa (NL) and The Strokes (HU).
