Jammin 'year 2014 projects the most interesting, innovative and sometimes transgressive musical proposals of the year on the stage of the Parco della Musica every year.
The review, now in its eighth edition, is produced by the Saint Louis College of Music in Rome.
Private institution of excellence in Higher Musical Art Education, the only one in Italy authorized to issue first and second level academic degrees and even capable of not burdening public spending a cent.
The music of Jammin 'year 2014 moves from the artist towards the viewer and returns there in a continuous flow of intangible energies, albeit distant from the television showbiz that atrophies the sense of smell and anesthetizes the critical skills. Creativity comes from anguish as the day comes from the dark night (A. Einstein) and the only anguish of a talent show is to change the channel as soon as possible.
Freedom is not being on a tree he sang Gaber nor on a sofa, freedom is participation, active and physical in the cultural moment, in the birth of an artist, in contact with what still does not touch us, but whose presence is nevertheless felt.
Jammin 'in 2014 does not feature big names, but only great artists. For this reason, Jammin 'is not for everyone. Jammin 'is for dreamers, for frontier gold prospectors, for those who do not despair of being able to choose the paths of their lives, for those who know they don't know, for those who say no.
Art as a reflection and soul of our culture represents the constant reference unit of a civil society that has lost its way, but which can and must restart from its young artists, the only ones capable of revolutionizing the system, unhinging its taxes and store everything in a human-sized space.
And when everything seems already said, already done, already heard, the brilliant intuition of an artist outside the lines bursts on the scene that upsets, inspires and projects us all into a new temporal dimension, where everything becomes possible again, because the evolution is an act of faith, continuous, inexorable, for millions of years.
Jammin 'in 2014 plunges into metropolitan chaos in a desperate search for that singularity that will give life to a dancing star. Concerts from the Auditorium and atAlexander Square partner of our events.

SEPTEMBER 5 - RUMOURS
Electro-acoustic Sounds
Rumors was born as a collective of emerging electronic music, a concert performed by Sonic Arts musicians, futuristic teaching by Maestro Luca Spagnoletti and courses of Midi and Sound Engineering of the Saint Louis College of Music in Rome. The event always aims to solidify the fertile combination of electronic author music and visual arts, video projections in this case. But above all in this evening Rumors is tinged with acoustic, for new experiments and contaminations.
Electro-Acoustic
Andrea Saffirio - piano
Armando Girolami – live electronics
Mainstream jazz meets electronic sounds in this brand new performance by two young talents from the Roman scene.
EBF – Electronic BalFolk
Valerio Rodelli - accordion and live electronics
The warm and intense sounds of the accordion are intimately combined with modern and precise electronic sounds. A multifaceted field of experimentation, suspended between ancient and modern. Continuously moving melodies and harmonies, romantic atmospheres, circus incursions, distorted sounds, pressing rhythms.
Skin Effect
Daniele Vantaggio (aka Seismal D) - live electronics
Valerio Vantaggio - drums and percussion
A timbral symbiosis between jazz drums and electronic music, a sound landscape where rhythm is not grafted only as a meter, but in the form of new sound objects that meet the acousmatic. The protagonists are the two brothers Valerio - a young but already established jazz player who boasts collaborations with international artists and participations in some of the most prestigious European Jazz Festivals - and Daniele Advantage - producer and live performer, who at only nineteen gets a contract with a Berlin label , touring Europe and America with his techno music and hosts a national radio program.
Pixfoil
Luca Spagnoletti - live electronics
PixFoil is Luca Spagnoletti's "Avatar" in his various reincarnations of electronic music. PixFoil can manifest itself, according to the occasion, in various formations or simply "alone", but it maintains its experimental, minimalist and glych nature.
