RADAR Festival Beyond Music descended on Amsterdam in a series of exciting collaborations between outstanding Bulgarian artists and local standouts. Between 16-20 December 2023, the festival offered open-minded projects that blend jazz, electronica, and video. Amsterdam-based jazz musician and artistic director Dimitar Bodurov has curated three concert evenings in Splendor, Sexyland, and Bimhuis. The world-champion beatboxer Skiller, internationally renowned producer Ivan Shopov and jazz trumpet player Rossen Zahariev met some high-profile local musicians such as the guitar star Teis Semey, keyboard wiz Tony Roe, drummer sensation Sun-Mi Hong, saxophone player Ben van Gelder and others. The artists exchanged adventure ideas in several projects ranging from jazz and improv to electronica and drum’n’bass.
