“Die Kontinuität, mit der die Festivalmacher seit Jahren Musikszenen dieser Welt abbilden, ermöglicht es dem Publikum auch, Entwicklungen mitzuverfolgen. Dabei interessieren nicht nur exotische Nischen, sondern auch Biotope an den Rändern des westlichen Mainstream.”
— Tina Uhlmann, Berner Zeitung BZ
