A SATORI SUMMER

A Starry Night’ will be immersive and intimate, taking visitors deep into Satori’s world of art and fine music, in which he organically transcends genres, space and time. This will make each ‘A Starry Night’ performance at Club Chinois a unique experience for both the audience and the performer. Part of the experience will revolve around tracks from Satori’s latest album ‘Dreamin’ Colours’. The album was released in April and was recorded live at Sonic Vista Studios in Ibiza.

Satori’s ‘A Starry Night’ residency will run from July 7th until October 6th, 2022. 

For me it is important that the audience is not just a spectator of a musical journey. I want them to be my travel companion. Each night I will present an in-depth set with improvisations on live instruments and beats that appear on the spot. By vibing off each other, the journey will be unpredictable for everyone and this way I can really forge a relationship with the audience through music,

Satori released 'Djelem, Djelem' on July 1st and is built around recordings by legendary Roma singer Esma Redžepova- This is an exclusive collaboration between Satori and the Serbian music festival EXIT and is the brainchild of EXIT Festival's founder Dusan Kovačević. Witnessing the resurrection of festivals worldwide, Esma's spine-tingling vocal on 'Djelem, Djelem', singing about the resurrection of spring felt like a natural fit. Contacting her family, Dusan received permission from Esma's son, making Satori the only artist ever to have the experience of reworking Esma's legendary vocal.

"The song performed by Esma Redžepova is about the release of spring. EXIT wanted to carry that symbolism through to the reopening of the festival world post-Corona," said Satori. "For me, being able to work with Esma's original recordings was very special. NPR voted her as one of the 50 Best Voices Ever a few years back and no one else has ever had the chance to work with her voice. For his part, her son felt it was a huge honour that we were able to preserve the essence of her work and have his mother involved in the reopening of EXIT through 'Djelem, Djelem'.
