Satoshi Tomiie will be performing at Elevation 2011 Music Festival in Razlog, Bulgaria (Friday. June 24th. 2011). Satoshi will be Djing at the Dance Stage on the First Day of Elevation 2011 Music Festival alongside with internationl like Darren Emerson, Cypress Hill, Jamiroquai and local DJs.Most western countries have annual, massive, on the green-field music festivals.Elevation 2011 is going to be the answer to rock and dance music festivals that Bulgaria needs, and of course all our Balkan Peninsula and Eastern European neighbors are invited.
At last there is an alternative for live music fans, to just hop in a car, catch a bus or a train and within the length of a music album (or two), be in the midst a true world-class rock and dance festival.
Elevation 2011 will bring together a diverse audience of people from Bulgaria and our neighboring countries, to enjoy a varied two day (running into the early hours of the third) program of DJ's, musicians, bands, local and high profile international artists. Additional entertainment and attractions(extreme sport village, etc.) will be present to providing a true festival feel and spirit, and satisfaction for all different tastes.
the town of Razlog for Elevation 2011, due to its ease of access from neighboring countries, it's spectacular mountain backdrop and well developed tourist infrastructure in both nearby Bansko, and Razlog itself. The chosen site is an expansive outdoor setting in the midst of three mountain ranges; Rila, the Rhodope Mountains, and Pirin being the nearest where Razlog rests in it's foothills. Amidst the stunning views, attendees will have plentiful space and freedom to dance, roam about, and mingle throughout the event. There is enough space for a potential 100,000 people, with a number of stages, and plentiful room for eating and drinking areas, and many other extras. Bansko will also serve as primary luxury accommodation, and Razlog has hotels and lodging as well, meanwhile camping on sight is a choice for those yearning for the true festival experience.
The quaint town of Razlog is something of a tourist destination on it's own, its proximity to the mountains for winter ski tourism give it an alpine feel, and it is right next to Bansko, Bulgaria's ultimate winter sports destination. When the cold months are over and the snow caps have melted, the town's climate becomes Mediterranean with warmth spreading from the nearing Aegean Sea. Joyful strolls along the river flowing through the town, and the sights of the Bulgarian Renaissance buildings give a charming feel. Plying at the newly built golf courses, is another great summer activity, and hiking trails are in abundance in the pristine mountains and dense forests. The area is ideal for eco tourism as it recognized as one of the cleanest locations in Europe, and UNESCO protects the higher mountain areas, which span 40,000 ha, and house around 180 glacier lakes, and a wealth of wildlife.
Razlog is located two and a half hours from Bulgaria's capital Sofia, which will be the primary transportation hub; with it's international airport, and many daily buses and trains reaching Razlog. The venue can be reached from the Greek border for a mere 45 minutes car ride, and Skopje the capital of Macedonia is two hours away. A general three hours is the distance from Serbia, and four from Romania.
