Located in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, São Miguel is the largest island in the Portuguese archipelago of the Azores and it's known for breathtaking landscapes, astonishing views of geysers, lakes and geothermal hot springs.
TREMOR is a music festival that takes place in Ponta Delgada, São Miguel, and brings an interdisciplinary programe of concerts, exhibitions, film screenings and community projects. With other artistic and cultural activities, it aspires to push forward creative potential of Azores. Tremor appeared in 2014 and since then our team has always dreamed of catching a glimpse of it. But some dreams take time, right? So it was only in 2018 that we have managed to come, and not exactly for a vacation.
FEAR AND LOATHING AND PARTY IN LAS PONTA DELGADA
is a result of our gatherings at Tremor, a portrayal of sometimes mundane landscapes blending with dances and sounds. Located in a remote place, its surroundings were indeed an important source of inspiration, a breath of fresh air from the common scene. It's not just one more festival, it's an experience like no other. An indescribable fusion of nature and artistic expression. An immersion into a spirit of community that goes against the trend of merely making events ever bigger. As these festival's venues are far from being common, it is a unique journey around the island through the secret gigs, a discovery in every corner.
