DJ and producer Steve Aoki, high priest of global electronic music, officiated at Lava Live Fest for the Lanzarote audience with a Tomorrowland-level show. The constant nods in the repertoire to Spanish music brought his faithful to paroxysm with the remix of Quevedo and his hit "Quédate."
The musical cocktail, the images of dreamlike and colorful design, the lighting setup, and the composer's own energy on the altar of his mixing desk made his staging a vibrant and surprising exhibition.
Along with the visual and sound display that turned the night into an authentic party, true to his most iconic tradition, the artist splashed the front rows with bubbles from several bottles of champagne, gave away t-shirts - including the one he was wearing - and threw 20 cakes at the audience, made for the occasion by the Lanzarote pastry shop Adelia Canarias.
The desserts, designed under strict guidelines, with a lot of humor and even more cream, impacted exclusively on those fans who showed up at the festival with signs that read "Cake Me", to find a special place on Aoki's radar and enjoy a moment of flashes and public attention.
The flow of Rels B
In the other great performance of the afternoon, the Mallorcan artist Rels B thrilled the thousands of people who gathered at the fairgrounds from five in the afternoon. From the first chords, when he descended to the stage inside a cylinder that would act as a screen and platform, his flow touched the hearts of an audience that gave themselves completely, who sang along to each of his songs and made it clear why this young artist has established himself as one of the leading figures in the urban music scene in Spanish with international projection.
Accompanied by a choir and a dance troupe, with a careful staging and an overwhelming charisma, Rels B. remained in permanent connection with his fans, recalling his island origin, mentioning the beauty of Lanzarote, and insisting that "without an audience, there is no show."
The concert of the Balearic artist was a celebration of the rhythm, sensitivity, and closeness that characterize him, with the interpretation of essential songs of his career such as "La última canción", "A mí" and "Cómo dormiste", among others.
The lineup was completed by the Puerto Rican singer and composer Justin Quiles, an international reference of the most classic reggaeton, and the Argentinian Luck Ra and his danceable cumbias, who achieved the feat of filling the fairgrounds at half past five for that first concert of the afternoon.
