''SWITCH TO GREEN ENERGY''
Intelligent Energy is a better lifestyle!
Panel discussion by FOCUS - Association for Sustainable Development
Slovenia needs to achieve a 25% share of renewables in the energy mix by the year 2020. By the end of June this year Slovenia has to submit a National Renewables Action Plan to the European Union where Slovenia needs to outline how to achieve this goal. The direction is clear: switching to green energy. For this switch a coordinated action has to take place by politics, consumers and entrepreneurs.
Intelligent Energy is a key step in the fight against climate change, and it includes a balanced mix of energy efficiency measures, renewable energy sources, efficient technologies and sustainable lifestyles.
Energy Union opens a debate across Europe on how to coordinate the switch to green energy. As part of this project, such a debate will take place in Ljubljana on the 21. May 2010, between 5 and 7 p.m. in the Atrium of the Scientific Research Centre of the Slovenian Academy of Sciences and Arts.
The panel discussion "Switching to Green Energy" is organized by FOCUS Association for Sustainable Development. More discussion on the content found on www.focus.si and www.energyunion.eu

COLDCUT (Ninja Tune / UK)
The pioneering band Coldcut, consisting of Matt Black and Jonathan More, has produced especially for Energy Union tour a new audio-visual film about Intelligent Energy, an innovative live cinema in a typical Coldcut mash-up style! Coldcut are considered to be the “creators” of modern audiovisual music. The creators of “Techno-House” gave the genre of “Remix” a new direction. Produced together with Hexstatic in 1998, their hit “Timber” helped audiovisual music becoming popular far from the shores of the UK. Coldcut’s label Ninja Tune also stands for sound artists emphasising audiovisual music. Celebrating its twentieth anniversary, 2010 will see the release of Coldcut's new album, as well as the Solid Steel mix CD.
SEIJI (London / UK)
Paul ‘Seiji’ Dolby is one of the progenitors of broken beat and long time member of Bugz In The Attic, which he started together with Orin Walters and which grew into a collective of beatmakers based in West London. After leaving Bugz in 2007, Seiji released DJ Tools, an experimental beats album, on Sonar Kollektiv, at the same time as producing and co-writing much of Roisin Murphy’s ‘Overpowered’ LP. He has now returned to underground dance music, presenting his own fresh and eccentric takes on house, hip-hop, R&B, drum ‘n bass, dancehall and 2-step with remixes for Erykah Badu, Alicia Keys, Basement Jaxx, Crookers, Florence & The Machine and Gorillaz.
RDYO DJs Soundsystem (Ljubljana)
RDYO DJs Soundsystem is assembled from nine DJ’s, from which everyone has its own view and style of DJing, but most of all they strive to convert their personal selection to a common whole. They work as a “DJ band” in various combinations. Founders and main DJs are JAMirko and Pier, recognized DJs at home and abroad, that are forming a multimedia club culture since 1996. Besides Djing they also actively deal with education of young artists and spreading of urban/club culture.
This time in Cvetličarna it will be the first time they perform with MC Fats.
MC FATS (Metalheadz / Eastside / True Playaz / London UK)
DnB veteran who, with his microphone, traveled the whole world and always maintained a reputation of an MC who ensures constant freshness and energy of DJ sets.

As an artist in his own right, he’s worked with A Sides, Dillinja, Pendulum, Alix Perez, Calibre and Hype.
