Space Tigers is a Berlin based quartet founded by the Croatian saxophonist Grgur Savić and Serbian guitarist Vanja Kevrešan. Both musicians already have a considerable experience in collaboration with bands from the former Yugoslavia and Germany, as well as a number of albums recorded with various bands, and they teach, too – Savić teaches in Berlin, while Kevrešan teaches at the Belgrade Music Academy. Along with the Serbian trumpet player Damir Bačikin (on the Festival he will be substituted by Strahinja Banović, a prominent Belgrade jazz scene player) and the American drummer Jesus Vega, the four sofa-techno-jazz-surfers play music beyond styles, soon to be available their debut album on Unit Records label based in Switzerland.

Their music features an original concept – transformation of existing melodies into several parts of motifs as separate units, as lines or bass parts, then rearranging these fragments into new order or different polyrhythms, bringing the starting-point compositions into the new light. Call it jazz, grunge, funk or electro – it is irrelevant, this is a Berlin art style.
