Hard to imagine and hard to digest, Bucharest is the only place where such festivals donât happen. This is urgent! Weâve all hidden our frustration and succeeded to fight against isolation. We all ran to take a closer look to frenetic creative hotbeds like London, Paris, Tokyo or Berlin and then returned to spread the rumor. Rokolectiv is the long awaited for international festival for electronic music and digital culture in Bucharest. With the creative effervescence that only festivals have, Rokolectiv digs for Romanian emerging talents and dispatches international artists, big ãdarlingsä of similar music festivals such as Sonar in Barcelona, Club Transmediale in Berlin or Villette Numerique in Paris.
