MUsIC MAGIC MYTH IV
THE RITEs of sPRING
7 - 10 MAY 2026
LA BRICHE, RILLE, 37340
Deep in the french countryside, in the ruins of a 19th century industrial farm known as La Briche, a community of artists opens its doors for the fourth edition of Music Magic Myth - The Rites of Spring.
Music Magic Myth is an invitation to inhabit our creative sanctuary for 72 hours. Here, our home becomes yours: a place where life, art, and celebration become one.
MUsIC
A synthetic sonic timeline. We explore the thread connecting ancient times to possible futures. Our programming is an alchemical fusion of ancestral acoustic traditions and the bleeding edge of electronica where the analog and digital realms intersect. From intimate concerts to the hypnotic rhythms of the night, every sound is a step in this temporal journey.
MAGIC
Magic here isn't an aesthetic, it's operational. We invite esotericists and occult practitioners to guide divinatory readings and ceremonies throughout the weekend. On the dance floor, we return the rave to its true origin: a collective, queer dionysian ritual. It is a fertility rite, a propitiatory act to celebrate life, diversity, and shared ecstasy..
MYTH
Masks and Metamorphosis; 19th century industrial ambition crumbled into soil for stranger gardens. Through theatrical performances, workshops, talks and ceremonial practices, we don't just study ancient stories; we birth new ones from old bones. At the center of this transformation is the mask inviting you to shed your skin, transcend your identity, and become, for the duration of a dance, a creature of myth.
