Rave for Saxophones: Smag På Dig Selv Bring Their Peaceful Riot to A38

Rave for Saxophones: Smag På Dig Selv Bring Their Peaceful Riot to A38

Copenhagen-based trio Smag På Dig Selv have built a sound that feels as explosive as it is unclassifiable, blending punk energy, saxophone-driven rave chaos and influences drawn from across Christiania’s rich musical underground. Ahead of their A38 show, they spoke to us about the cultural environment that shaped them, the darker and more mature mood of their new album This Is Why We Lost, and how their concerts become intense, collective experiences shared between band and audience.

“I Always Want Full Creative Freedom” – Valentino Vivace Brings His Mediterranean Disco Universe to the A38 Ship

“I Always Want Full Creative Freedom” – Valentino Vivace Brings His Mediterranean Disco Universe to the A38 Ship

In Valentino Vivace’s music, the shimmer of Italo disco, Mediterranean emotion and Swiss precision come together in a world that feels both playful and deeply cinematic. What began in a university environment has since grown into a distinct artistic universe: nostalgic, stylish and irresistibly danceable, yet increasingly open to introspection too. Ahead of his first Budapest show at A38 on April 24, we spoke with him about the beginnings of the project, the emotional pull of the Italian language, the freedom of working independently, and the more melancholic new chapter now taking shape.
