Ombra Festival 2024
By Charlotte Stace
Ombra Festival strikes again this month at Utopia 126. The music festival is a project born from the hand of OMBRA Agency and label Oraculo Records with the aim of creating a meeting place for lovers of analogue and avant-garde sounds that break the mould. It brings together bands, producers and DJs from all over the world. If you’re into EBM, darkwave and industrial/experimental music, then this festival is an absolute must.
Held in one of the most industrial architectural spaces in Barcelona - the former Empresa Nacional de Motores de Aviación factory - it is an emblematic building that forms part of the city’s rich history. Designed by the architect Robert Terrades, it's located in the outlying district of Sant Adrià. Dark and vast, it’s the perfect spot for the event's minimal and sombre tone.
This year’s edition features an exciting line-up including: 80%baul, baby vulture, chris imler, darkways, en direct, in strict confidence, j keane, and kinetic.
