Two sentences. The first, is apparently frivolous (or is it?), was uttered by Father John Misty. The other by Elgio, former member of La Insurgencia who was condemned to two years and one day of prison for verses that the High Court considered incitement to terrorism. Both sentences have one thing in common: they were said in the framework of Primavera Pro 2018 and, in some way, they represent everything that normally would not be part of a professional meeting: entertaining wit, and the denunciation of deplorable situations. Primavera Pro is the place to hold a round table on how to tour in the Asia market, followed by a session to thrash out how Blockchain can help musicians. Where one can learn how to get a track on a successful playlist by Justin Barker from [PIAS], and later the opportunity to listen to the journalist Liz Pelly revealing the sexist stereotypes that are hidden behind an apparently inoffensive 1 algorithm on a streaming platform. A place where you can discover the unusual chemistry between the well-known Father John Misty and filmmaker Adam Curtis, and to find out what the future has in store for the new generations of professionals in the music sector. Somewhere where you can listen to the producer John Congleton defending “timeless” music as opposed to a “perfect” sound, or where you can have a laugh listening to the vision that Los Planetas have today of their toxic glory, which is twenty years old already, Una semana en el motor de un autobús. A place where you can accompany Stuart Braithwaite on his journey through his favourite musical moments in cinema, and see how Kyle Dixon and Michael Stein have gone from cult band to pop phenomenon thanks to the soundtrack for Stranger Things. And it is a space in which you can express your outrage about a legal system that suffocates art and protest with Elgio, the lawyer Laia Serra, Dani Vilaró from Amnistía Internacional, and the journalist Bruno Sokolowicz. Or to explore the relationship between music and image at the activities of Primavera Pro On-Screen, which this year were sponsored by EMI Production Music and Thirty-Two Music, take the pulse of the congress of independent labels and the congress of concert venues, delve into the minds of the women of generation Z via sessions organized by CultHunting WomenZ, or see how technology can influence the music industry, thanks to the talks and pitches by Primavera Pro Startups, that awarded their prize to Roadie Tuner, a tool that allows one to tune guitars automatically and with great precision. And of course, it is a place to applaud the association of Mujeres de la Industria de la Música, presented with the Primavera Award for their efforts to dynamite all gender inequality in the music sector. The feminist discourse was also very much present on the stages: 54% of the showcases from the five continents had female members and in many cases they were frontwomen or solo artists. This is one of the most significant figures of the ninth edition of Primavera Pro, that has brought together over 3.000 accredited professionals from almost 70 different countries. 2 PRIMAVERA SOUND IN NUMBERS Public: 210.000 visitas Number of live shows: 311 actuaciones Number of Artists: 257 bands Primavera Pro: Professionals accredited: 3.077 Activities (conferences, presentations, networking sessions, etc): 92 Primavera Pro Showcases: 66 3 LINE UP (Sandy) Alex G (US) Essaie Pas (CA) Leafar Legov (DE) Radioactive Man (UK) A$AP Rocky (US) Eva Geist (IT / DE) Lee Fields & The Expressions (US) RAMZi (CA) ABRA (US) Evian Christ (UK) Let's Eat Grandma Rex Orange County (UK) ADR (US) Ezra Furman (US) Levon Vincent (US) Rhye (US) Aleksi Perälä (FI) F/E/A (ES) Lift To Experience (US) Ride (UK) Liminal Soundbath with Jónsi, Alex Alicia Carrera (ES) Father John Misty (US) Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever (AU) Somers and Paul Corley (IS) Fermin Muguruza eta The Suicide Of Amaia (ES) Lindstrøm (NO) Rory Phillips (UK) Western Culture (ES) Âme II Âme (DE) Fever Ray (SE) Lorde (NZ) Ross From Friends (UK) Anna von Hausswolff (SE) Flat Worms (US) Los Planetas (ES) Rostam (US) Arca (VE) Floating Points 6 hours dj set (UK) Lykke Li (SE) The Sea and Cake (US) Arctic Monkeys (UK) Floating Points Solo Live (UK) LYZZA (NL) Dj Seinfeld (SE) Ariel Pink (US) Four Tet (UK) Majid Jordan (CA/BH) Seth Troxler Disco Set (US) Art Ensemble Of Chicago (US) Four Tet presents Mall Grab (AU) Sevdaliza (IR) ATEQ (DE) Gabriel Garzón-Montano (US) Mano Le Tough (IE) Shanti Celeste (CL) Bad Gyal (ES) GAIKA (UK) Marcel Dettmann (DE) Shellac (US) Beach House (US) GANGES (ES) Maria Arnal i Marcel Bagés (ES) Skepta (UK) Belle and Sebastian (UK) Genius of Time (SE) Mariel Ito (US) Slowdive (UK) Belly (US) Gerd Janson (DE) Marina Herlop (ES) Solar (US) Björk (IS) Grizzly Bear (US) Marion Harper (ES) Sparks (US) Spiritualized with Orchestra and Choir The Black Madonna (US) HAIM (US) Mattiel (US) (UK) THE BLAZE (FR) Here Lies Man (US) Mavi Phoenix (AT) Starcrawler (US) The Breeders (US) Hinds (ES) The Men (US) SUMAC (US/CA) Bufiman b2b Dj Normal 4 (DE) Holy Bouncer (ES) Metá Metá (BR) Superorganism (UK) C.
