The first Sónar Galicia highlighted the great potential and talent of many of the groups, producers and projects working in Galicia today. In 2011, at the second time of asking, Sónar Galicia continues to reveal the most interesting sounds on today's Galician scene, with the confirmed presence of 9 artistic projects with a broad-based and varied range of styles.

Caino & Zinqin present an audiovisual spectacle in which the contemporary rhythms of the former (similar to the British rave scene) are combined with the latter's images created live especially for each piece. "Contemporary" is also a concept that fits in perfectly with the approach of the ColectivoOruga, blenders of musical genres and styles (new wave, synth pop, indie rock, electro), with an end result that cannot be pigeonholed under any established label.

The new project by the Galician dj Ino, Dj Ino & La Keise Band, includes outstanding jazz and funk musicians, who bring their instrumental quality and a whole lot of groove to a highly organic approach that shifts between hip-hop and contemporary soul. In a similar vein is Wasilkoski, a highly versatile dj who glides with ease from electro-funk to dancehall, taking in synth pop and the hottest techno-dub on the way.

Judah, the alter ego of Andrés Grobas, uses this alias to mix electro-funk, freshly minted hip-hop and contemporary beats. Mr.Fishman a.k.a Dr.Think and Dj Sith also focus on modern rhythms, and especially on the freshest beats from the United Kingdom: UK funky, grime and any other sound featuring powerful elastic basses.

There is also a place for experimentation among Galician djs and selectors: Galis115 is an expert at including samplers and field recordings in an all-enveloping context of electronica; meanwhile, Ningunos Djs investigate the most cutting-edge sounds without neglecting the dancefloor, making extensive use of deep techno, experimental IDM and classic house.
