Beatnik was invited by the lovely people at Soundwave Festival to experience the beautiful sunshine, sea and independent music on offer as they took over the picturesque village of Petrcane in Croatia.

We enjoyed ourselves so much we thought we'd make this short film showing some of the highlights.

The people, location and diverse range of music from funk to hip hop, reggae to ambient electronic means there really isn't another festival like this in the world!

For features on many of the artists who performed at the festival including Andreya Triana, Oddisee, Olivier Daysoul, Dam-Funk and DJ Format to name a few, and our diary entries for each day remember to hit up beatnikonline.net
