About Us:

Jkson, an artist from Argentina, draws inspiration from the native cultures of the Andes. His journey in meditation, breathwork, and music therapy has led him to create diverse soundscapes that blend natural sounds and organic textures with electronic elements. His work ranges from healing sounds to deep techno, influenced by world music.

Technical Support:

• Electronic Instruments: If you plan to bring electronic instruments, please coordinate with our team regarding necessary cables (MIDI and audio). As the event is off-grid, you must provide your own power solutions.

• Percussion & Drumming: Percussionists and drummers are welcome, but due to space and volume limitations, please contact us in advance. This is not a drum circle, and there is no large sound system yet.

For questions, please contact the Mama Cacao team at info@mama-cacao.ch.
