Defected Croatia 2017 recently announced the line-up for the six-day event, which they’ll be hosting alongside official festival partners including Glitterbox, Mixmag, Traxsource, Objektivity and D-Vine Sounds. With last year’s Croatia moments in mind, Simon Dunmore and the Defected team have curated and selected a programme of DJs, with newly announced names that include Kenny Dope, Derrick Carter, Basement Jaxx (DJ set), Monki, Low Steppa and Nightmares On Wax plus more.
These artists will feature on the Main Stage, heating things up at the Beach, setting sail on daily boat parties and playing through the night at the Barbarella’s night club (full stage line-ups will be released further into the year).
Simon Dunmore: “I absolutely appreciate how fortunate I am with my job. Working with the best house producers and DJs has given me so many incredible moments and memories for almost three decades. I am clearly proud of what Defected has achieved, so please believe me when I say how emotional Croatia 2016 was personally for me last summer.
“DJs and house heads all travelled to the Adriatic to meet friends and likeminded people for an exceptional five days. The feeling of togetherness was what really struck me. I am not saying that it is the best thing that Defected has ever done, although it is certainly up there, what I will say is that it was a bold and ballsy move and every time I look back to it I smile profusely.
“We learned so much from last August and we are confident that 2017 will be even better. We have added an extra day. We have enhanced the DJ line up, adding the likes of MK, Eats Everything, Derrick Carter, Todd Terry, Joey Negro and Soul Clap, alongside the Defected family; Sam Divine, Sonny Fodera, Sandy Rivera and Franky Rizardo, as well as DJs that rocked Tisno last summer; Roger Sanchez, Julio Bashmore, Basement Jaxx, Dennis Ferrer, Kenny Dope and Nick Curly.
“With all this you can understand why I am rightly excited to announce the next instalment of DJs that will be joining us this summer. Every one of them is part of our extended Defected family. It would be great if you could join us, I really hope you can and I can guarantee you some of those incredible moments and memories that you’ll get to own and share for years to come.”
