YugoFuturism presents: LELEE (SVN) + IT DOCKUMER LOKAELTSJE (FRY) + JULIÁN MAYORGA (COL)

IT DOCKUMER LOKAELTSJE (Friesland)
Forty years after their debut album ‘WIL MET U NEUKEN’, the Frisian-language punk legend It Dockumer Lokaeltsje makes a radical return to the vibe of their early days. Back then, they cobbled together their first ten songs in a single afternoon — on LOOP OF SLOOP, their brand-new LP/CD, Fritz, Sytse and Peter have taken the step of recording an album first and only then turning it into ten songs! On these tracks, It Dockumer Lokaeltsje rattles more than ever. Shellac, DNA, Teenage Jesus and The Ex all make a brief appearance, but blink and they’re gone again. Because se kinne der net oer! (They can’t handle it!)
On LOOP OF SLOOP, It Dockumer Lokaeltsje is bursting with life and simultaneously on the verge of collapse. Since in 2026 the band has more past than future, they’ve decided to go through life as of now in a posthumous state. Where TRUMP YN MAKKUM was their last album in 2023, LOOP OF SLOOP is their first posthumous one. Come experience it live and take one last noisy ride into the abyss with these Frisian troublemakers.

LELEE (Slovenia)
best indie-rock / post-punk from Slovenia
energetic and joyful fusion of clever songwriting and all-out rocking Slovenian trio Lelee, one of the key protagonists of the regional indie music scene, are champions of melodious indie songwriting with a knack for pop sensibility, wrapped up with a punkish DIY spirit. Known for their vibrant sound, Lelee blends Yugoslav new wave aesthetics, ’90s indie rock, and a dash of Adriatic temperament, striking a perfect balance between inventive arrangements and all-out rocking. Full of verve and drive, Lelee songs are characterised by hooky refrains and melodies that become ingrained in your skull and follow you long after.
Their recent album ‘Mora malo u crveno’ (Moonlee Records, 2024) is receiving raving feedback from the audience and critics, and their singles Životinje & Rane were presented also on KEXP by Kevin Cole.

Lelee are an excellent live band with great energy on stage. Check out a short clip from their release party in Ljubljana as it greatly sums up their live energy – Životinje live.

JULIÁN MAYORGA (Colombia)
Part technicolour fever dream, part polyrhythmic Dadaist frolic, Chak Chak Chak Chak is the latest full-length from avant-garde Colombian singer-songwriter Julián Mayorga, an album that brilliantly brings to life his absurdist post-cumbia infused psychedelia.

Broadcasting from the fertile cauldron of his current headquarters in Madrid, where he has lived for the past ten years, Mayorga has created the next compelling phase of his self-proclaimed “timbre rebellion.” Inspired by the sounds of unconventional musical instruments – frying pans, mortar and pestle, knives and plates – his debut release on Glitterbeat (his ninth in all) curdles with an uncanny energy and satirical wit.
