ABOUT
Shuma is currently the most significant breakthrough act on the Belarusian scene. Their album Zhnivo was crowned Album of the Year by the trendsetting and influential portal BeeHype, surpassing established stars such as Serebrenaya Svadba and Brutto.
The group offers an enchanting mix of electronics and club beats fused with traditional folk singing. While their production and sampling evoke the highest standards of the Berlin and London electronic scenes, their ethnic vocals and lyrics—sung in Belarusian—serve as the band’s truly unique hallmarks. Shuma is on the verge of a major European breakthrough, and this journey may well begin right here at the Different Sounds Festival.
