Intensity: that’s the only word that dares to even come close to describing the atmosphere that ruled Utlra Music Festival’s stages during this past weekend. DJs, bands, dancers and multicolor lights created a spell that showed more than 150.000 adventurers the flurry of a 32 hours of party. Sounds and beats from all over the world found their place inside the “Festival of Love.”
WFK’s camera was able to capture unique moments during the performances of some of our favorite Ultra music shows. Moby, Afrobeta, Empire of the Sun and Chemical Brothers are  just some of them.
If you want to remember those moments, when the speakers were firing straight to the centre of your spine, or if you were not able to make it to Bicentennial Park for UMF this past weekend, sit tight because WFK froze these intense moments for you…

MOBY
Who rules the world? Moby does! Or at least Moby did during his two hours set at Carl Cox & Friends Stage where he offered a fearless show that’s so worth being worshiped

AFROBETA

The beautiful and fearless Cuci wearing an Art of Shade design specially made for her performance and the charismatic Tony with his yellow suit and signature afro made their performance a hypnotic spectacle, stealing chants, claps and cheers from the crowd in awe with their show.  Afrobeta has the power to stimulate any inhabitant of Earth! The made-in-Miami group performed at Ultra two days in a row. We are so proud and in love with them!




EMPIRE OF THE SUN

Emperors from a far away land with their court made of flesh and light -  Empire of the Sun gave a show that will never be forgotten by those who had the privilege of being at Ultra’s Live Stage when the clock turned 9:45pm on March 26th, 2011. We hope their legacy will last for a few more centuries…
