WrocLove Frik Muzik Festival: Finnish humppa, Eläkeläiset, Łąki Łan, Dick 4 Dick and Planet L.U.C.
WrocLove Frik Muzik Festival announced a meeting of musical humour and unexpected sounds at the Feature Film Studio. Eläkeläiset’s Finnish humppa was paired with Dick 4 Dick, Łąki Łan and Planet L.U.C. in a programme encouraging free festival expression.

Here is a riddle: what do you get when you combine wonderfully offbeat sounds, a crowd of smiling people in original outfits, Poland’s most beautiful city and the atmosphere of a musical celebration? There is only one answer: WROCLOVE FRIK MUZIK FESTIVAL!
We declare Wrocław the City of Freaks! And we certainly do not mean the children of Frik, the Armenian poet who lived under Mongol occupation in the 13th century! We announce an invasion of positive music that will erupt at full force in Wytwórnia Filmów Fabularnych, with Dick 4 Dick, Łąki Łan, L.U.C. and the absolutely sensational Finnish group and masters of Humppa, Eläkeläiset!!! News of their arrival has prompted exuberant reactions from various quarters:
– “They’re sexier than Motörhead” – Beata Tyszkiewicz’s first words after watching Eläkeläiset on youtube.com.
- “The accordion can ignite enormous passion, and my nostrils were trembling a great deal today,” Małgorzata Foremniak told Eläkeläiset's singer after a Helsinki concert several months ago. She recently said the same thing to the winner of the second Mam Talent. And you're supposed to believe women…
- “I regret that I'm no longer Minister of Education, because I would certainly introduce compulsory Humppa lessons!!! in every school. But I'll definitely come to Wrocław with the boys from the League to see Eläkeläiset and the other groups. I'm also curious about that band with ‘dick’ in its name??” Roman Giertych said in an exclusive interview for Radio M.
“After I brought down the Berlin Wall, I danced to Humppa!!! all night with Danusia. That was something. Although I don’t want to, but I have to admit that Donald picked up the steps faster than me? Which is more than you can say for Angela, hehehe. I’ve been practising and practising ever since I heard about the event.” That was Lech Wałęsa’s reaction to news of the approaching Wroclove Frik Muzik Festival.
“The first time he played Humppa for me!!! Zbyszek Chlebowski. In a cemetery. Since then, we've been installing it in all the machines. It works brilliantly!” – Ryszard Sobiesiak during questioning before the commission investigating the gambling scandal.
