Sunset Music Festival Artist Spotlight: Popeska

Sunset Music Festival strives to accommodate a diversity of musical tastes. From dubstep, electro, to progressive, there is something for everyone to enjoy at this year’s event. We feel that variety is the spice of life, and if you agree, you should get your tickets and join us this Memorial Day weekend. One of the artists on our roster knows a little bit about variety is Atlanta native, Popeska.

Popeska, known to his mailman as Ralf Popescu, started off from humble beginnings and if you ask him, he never thought that electronic music would become his career. Producing in his dorm room at Georgia Tech, Popeska uploaded tracks to Soundcloud just as a hobby. Drawing in listeners with a steady output of addicting material, he soon garnered global attention when he was the first to be signed to Wolfgang Gartner’s Kindergarten label. Having already shared a stage with heavyweights like Datsik, Rusko, and Cazzette the first year of his signing, it’s obvious the 20-year old isn’t going any where anytime soon.

One of the many things we love about Popeska is his wide arsenal of killer tunes that he drops in his sets. Though he draws inspiration from sources like folk, classical and jazz, his track selection fluctuates between the electro house, dubstep and moombahton styles, but individually are near impossible to pin to one specific genre.

We can’t wait for Popeska to bring his banging drums, crisp melodic sounds, and indescribable drops when he takes the stage at Sunset Music Festival. Have you bought your tickets yet?
