Electric Castle 2024, an edition with a lot of rock and trip hop
Organizers have announced details of the artists and Electric Castle's 10th edition, which is set to be one
with "a lot of rock and trip hop".
"The 10th edition of the festival is announced with a lot of rock and trip hop. The list of artists is completed
by Chase and Status (live), Marc Rebillet, Nina Kraviz, Bonobo, Dj Shadow, Sleaford Mods, among many
other names, and a surprise guest: Shaquille O'Neal aka DJ Diesel, NBA legend and self-proclaimed
"dubstep dad". Fans have the chance to see all these names at Electric Castle for a price of only 119
Euros, a special promotion until December 20", the organizers said in a statement.
They laid the foundation for trip hop, one of the most influential musical styles of the past few decades,
and inspired a whole generation of artists through their extraordinary creative power in music, visual arts
and activism. Massive Attack fully deserves its status as a cult band and the organizers of Electric Castle
are honored to offer the public the chance to listen, live, to iconic songs such as Teardrop, Angel or
Unfinished Sympathy.
It's time for new electric mosh pits at the main stage: Bring Me The Horizon return to EC, in full tour
promoting a new album that will surprise fans with a different sound. At the band's first appearance in
Romania, Queens of The Stone Age (QOTSA) promise a masterclass in rock! QOTSA is prepared with a
show that goes through all periods of the career of the legendary band, from hits like Nobody Knows and
I Sat By The Ocean, to the recent Carnavoyeur. Seeing Josh Homme live on the main stage at Electric
Castle is a dream come true for any alternative rock lover.
With 3 tracks simultaneously in the charts worldwide, Chase and Status are currently in top form. Some
of the best D'n'B artists will be at the castle live, which is very rare for the British duo. Two legends, both
with roots in trip hop and an impressive career behind them: DJ Shadow, the man who turned sampling
into art, and Bonobo, the producer whose discography is a whole journey between musical styles, are
also on the bill Electric Castle 2024.
The pandemic was great for Marc Rebillet, when a whole world discovered his improvised sets in their
own living room. Meanwhile, 'Loop Daddy', nicknamed for the live looping techniques he uses, has gone
on to sold out concerts and is preparing a one-of-a-kind show for Electric Castle, while Nina Kraviz will
bring to the festival her unique style that combines
house and techno.
One of the most recognizable figures in the world, whether on the basketball court or behind the
backboards: Shaquille O'Neal is on the EC poster as DJ Diesel, the man who converted the energy of
sports into intense dubstep sets.
Two bands to listen to on repeat until their concerts at EC: Khruangbin, an infectious mix of soul, funk
and psychedelic rock, and Sleaford Mods, the British band proving that punk music continues to evolve.
Among the female presences in the line-up, fans of the young Kenya Grace are waiting to discover the
Strangers concert version, no. 1 in the UK this autumn. After a Grammy nomination, Jayda G, the
producer who released remixes for big names like Taylor Swift or Dua Lipa, makes her EC debut.

Massive Attack, Bring Me The Horizon, Queens of The ![]() Stone Age, Chase and Status, Sean Paul and Paolo Nutini – this is what the headliners of the 10th edition of the Electric Castle festival look like. Another 300 artists from all musical genres will be present at Banffy Castle, in Bonțida, between July 17 and 21, to create a new edition that is even more eclectic, exotic and explosive. Massive Attack and Queens of The Stone Age have created musical styles, becoming benchmarks for entire generations of musicians, while bands such as Bring Me The Horizon and Chase and Status are revolutionizing their versatility and appetite for experimentation in different musical areas. everything you'd expect from a rapper born in the reggae capital, but his record of hits (1.2 billion listens in 2023 alone) and awards (Grammy, AMA, Billboard) says much more about ambition, talent and the power to create a brand. In the opposite register, Paolo Nutini comes with a cocktail of rock and soul, a voice that stirs emotions and more than 20 years of career that has brought him millions of fans. With Marc Rebillet, the most "playful" DJ of the moment, Shaquille O'Neal aka DJ Diesel aka NBA star turned drum and bass star, Sevdaliza, the artist experimenting with Iranian rhythms in pop music, and L'Entourloop, the collective project led by two Frenchmen who pose as "grandfathers of hip-hop", Electric Castle refuses recipes in the line-up and follows its own creative instinct. Bonobo, Cavalera Brothers, Sleaford Mods, Iguana Death Cult, She Wants Revenge, Palaye Royale, iLe, Derya Yildirim & Group Simşek, Fulu Miziki , Subcarpathi, Vița de Vie, Coma, Vama, Irina Rimes, Byron, Delia, Șuie Paparude, CTC and dozens of other names are confirmed to take the stage at Electric Castle.
