Decolonize Your Mind Society, JÜ, Sauropoda
Decolonize Your Mind Society Decolonize Your Mind Society's first full-length album in 2020, drawing inspiration from non-European cultures, non-standard tunings, American minimalism and psychedelic, ritualistic music, has gained worldwide attention and recognition. With their second album, released in 2023, the band has created material that is similarly unique, but with a different approach - tempered tunings derived from the equal division of the octave, unparalleled metrics and this time intonation instead of fixed tunings. Over the years, the orchestra has appeared at numerous festivals in the Netherlands and Europe with its completely unique programme, such as Eurosonic in the Netherlands and Donaufestival in Austria. The members of Decolonize Your Mind Society are.

Jü Formed in 2012, Jü's unfolding themes of rigorous, repetitive swirls and unfolding themes, their compositions of psychedelic and noise rock, folk and power jazz all at once, carry incredible energy. By expanding the possibilities of the instruments, they sweep the trance-induced audience from the continuous present straight into the future: a performance that ideally changes the way the listener thinks about music. The Jü sound combines the intensity of rock, the freedom of free jazz, the hypnotic effect of ambient textures and the complex, visceral rhythms of African music. The members of Jü are Ádám Mészáros (guitar), Ernő Hock (bass), Szilveszter Miklós (drums).
Sauropoda The band released their second album "The Overstory" in autumn 2024, which is also their first physical (vinyl) release. The new album explores the theme of the relationship between humans and nature, depicting mythical figures, interior landscapes and sacred trees, showing the intricate relationships that bind them together. Trees, as symbols of heaven and earth and bridges between the everyday and the divine, run through the compositions on the album.
Dürer Garden
Recently moved from its original location, the Dürer is a staple of Budapest's metal scene. But don't be scared, it's worth a visit even if you just want to have a couple of drinks by the Danube. From spring, of course.
