In the late evening of August 19, Viimsi Artium opens its doors to the public with a Lexsoul Dancemachine concert, the hottest combination of Estonian street funk and soul, where the night turns into night with captivating rhythms.
At the same time, the audience is invited to get to know the Artium building and the outdoor area, where there are so many exciting things to experience – Kristjan Järvi’s NEscapes lounge full of sound vibrations and visuals invites you to a mind-blowing journey in the blackbox, in the contemporary art gallery at the foot of the cliff you can see the exhibition of animation film directors Priit and Olga Pärna. Light installations add magic to the roof terrace and the surrounding wilderness at night.

Raw street funk on one side, with sweet soul on the other – Lexsoul Dancemachine is a 6-man groove band known for tearing venues apart with their stage presence. Active since 2013, the aim of the machine is to hypnotize feel-good music lovers with thumping bass lines, syncopated rhythms, repetitive grooves and soulful vocals. It’s the kind of music you can break dance to, although in between those hard-hitting sounds you’ll find some more tender grooves.
December 2015 saw Lexsoul Dancemachine self-release their debut album after a successful kick-starter campaign. Deus Lex Machina was put out on vinyl, CD and digitally. 2016 was filled with live gigs in the Baltic-Nordic region, including Tallinn Music Week, Positivus, Funky Elephant and Pori Jazz Festival in Finland.
After making a big local splash with the record, the band broke the international level courtesy of a 5-star review from monkeyboxing.com, an UK blog with an appetite for the Funk. From there on, it was picked up by Craig Charles Funk and Soul Show on BBC 6 and BBC 2 with singles “Beef Grinder” and “Coconuts” on the rotation ever since.
