Quotes from performers at Stella Polaris
Tom Middleton (DJ, London)
“I just arrived from the Big Chill, which is a great event, but I was so surprised, because I have never seen so much love and musical understanding...the crowd is actually listening to every single sound on the records. Magnificent event.”
Steve Harvey (DJ, London)
”Stella Polaris has always been my favourite gig of the year. It’s the one time that I get to really express myself through my music: there are no boundaries, no restrictions and no limitations. I get to play music that I couldn’t play anywhere else to a crowd that is actually listening and taking notice. There is nowhere else quite like it. I love Stella Polaris!! Even my young son comes along and enjoys the atmosphere of the event, proving it is something for everyone, young and old.”
Pete Gooding (DJ, London)
”The event grows every year, now one of my annual highlights. The crowd loves the cutting edge experimental sounds which makes for a unique vibe!”
Kalle B (organizer)
”Worrying about the weather for twelve months, neglecting my family, working every night – is it really worth it? Absolutely! Thanks for all the support.”
Nicka Kirstejn (organizer)
”Stella was conceived back in 1997 as a sudden impulse to create a different approach to present a mixture of beautiful, sumptuously mixed tunes to unwind the club-ravaged mind that was so ’damaged’ after the first decade of clubbing. That year the summer was absolutely fantastic – and in the warm and almost tropical nights we took on another task – you know one of those DIYs – making a chill out festival, without giving it any further thoughts. And that’s the creation of Stella Polaris.”
Krede (DJ, Copenhagen)
”Stella Polaris has grown into the most essential Danish chill out event over the years. With great support and perfect venues, Stella Polaris tops the package with the only serious annual Danish compilation. I’m a fan.”
Thomas Madvig (DJ, Copenhagen)
”10 years of world class chill out, amazing DJ line-ups and (almost) always with the sun on their side. Additionally they have blessed us with their brilliant compilations, which includes the much famed and really fantastic Stella Polaris remixes. Much respect and congrats. 10 more years!!”
Tina Dico (recording artist)
”Stella Polaris Allstars have already remixed two of my songs (’Break of Day’ and ’The City’) and brought life to new beautiful dreamy versions. I wouldn’t hesitate to let more of my songs get the Stella Polaris treatment.
