A charitable balloon filled with music will once again rise into the air over the most charming areas of Podlasie as part of the Second Flying Ambient Salon campaign. The project’s goal is to support the Prophet Elijah Hospice Foundation, which takes care of improving the lives of seniors. Those willing to support the campaign and experience a unique flight in the air with the sounds of Ambient still have a chance to participate in a special online fundraiser.
The unique formula of the Flying Ambient Salon combines unforgettable experiences offered by a balloon flight with an artistic feast for music lovers. The event is organized for the second time. Last year, thanks to the generosity of donors, the organizers of the campaign raised over 20,000 PLN, which was donated to the Give Children Strength Foundation.
In this year’s edition of the Flying Ambient Salon, we want to draw attention to the fact that by taking care of the future of our planet, it is worth remembering the people who took care of it in the past. For this reason, we have decided that the entire amount collected as part of the campaign will go to the Prophet Elijah Hospice Foundation. We are delighted that, just like last year, we can collaborate with the Up To Date Festival in such a noble cause, and an extraordinary artist from the domestic Ambient scene, known as Botanica, has also joined our efforts,– says Agata Kalinowska, Brand Business Partner at the Electrum Group, the organizer of the event.
The Second Flying Ambient Salon will be realized with the participation of a producer and DJ hiding under the pseudonym Botanica. Botanica creates relaxing ambient music, sometimes interspersed with rhythmic tracks bordering on dub techno and house. The artist is an enthusiast of field recordings, which he uses in his compositions and publishes on his Bandcamp profile. His recordings appear in film productions, during yoga classes, in relaxation and meditation apps, and as the musical background of design exhibitions. So far, Botanica’s productions have been released by labels such as MOST, Father And Son Records & Tapes, Dom Trojga, and Neoviolence. The artist’s recordings are available online on his profiles at https://sayyestobotanica.bandcamp.com/ and https://soundcloud.com/thisisbotanica.
“We are delighted that, as the Up To Date Festival, we have the opportunity to co-create the Second Flying Ambient Salon. In the past, we undertook various activities for seniors. We painted murals, organized intergenerational dances – it’s easy, light, and enjoyable to talk about it, but it’s not easy to talk about those who are slowly leaving us. Together with Electrum, we take on this challenge and invite you to help. Let’s remember the generations that were here before us and to whom we owe a lot,” – says Jędrzej Dondziło, co-creator of the campaign and Program Director of the Up To Date Festival.
People interested in participating in a visual and musical feast during a balloon flight over Narwia and Knyszyn Forest can still take part in the online fundraiser at https://zrzutka.pl/6zy4h9. The event is planned for September 25, 26, 27, and 28, depending on the weather. The launch is expected at around 4:00 PM. The campaign can also be supported in other ways, such as purchasing attractive “bricks,” for example, a yoga lesson.
