Good old Fusion turned incredible 20 years old last year! And is now looking back on 20 wild years of building the alternative festival dream that we know today. You have never been to the famous Fusion Festival? Then let us explain the magic shortly: The Fusion grew out of the idea to create a space for all free-spirited individuals, to be what they want and create a society they feel comfortable in. So instead of only focussing on great music and filling big stages, Fusion is famous for creating its alternate reality that fosters love, sustainable living, and compassion. Who do we have to thank for all these years of intense festival partying? Kudos goes out to Kulturkosmos e.V.!

The 16th Fusion finally ended last week. Even though the festival has grown quite big (too big?) during the last years, it still has its original spirit: a spirit of freedom and independence.
After several days at the Fusion, some people might find it hard to actually remember the artists they have seen and the music they have danced to. In fact, one of the most beautiful things about the festival is that music is not the most important thing. It is being with your friends, getting lost, meeting new people and suddenly discovering artists that you have never heard of before. Anyhow, as in every year, the Fusion actually features some terrific music. In my opinion, this year’s hightlights were (besides the chamber orchestra at the Bachstelzen floor) Magda’s closing set on Sunday and Super Flu’s performance at the Turmbühne. More after the jump.

Now, in the coldest time of the year, the next summer, and the next Fusion Festival, seems very far away. With temperatures dropping down to -20° and the city covered in snow, the idea of dancing in the sun is quite hard to imagine. But there are “just” 145 more days to go until the next Fusion starts! To celebrate this countdown, here are some picture from the Fusion Festival 2010.
