Overview
- The fourth Music Wins on November 2 was billed as the festival’s largest and most attended edition, featuring four stages and more than 20 artists at Buenos Aires’ Mandarine Park.
- Massive Attack’s emotionally charged, visually driven set spotlighted songs such as Teardrop, Angel and Safe From Harm, with a post-event account reporting on-the-fly timing tweaks to minimize nearby aircraft noise.
- Primal Scream delivered a high-energy set led by Bobby Gillespie that leaned on favorites like Loaded, Movin’ On Up and Rocks, with a separate closing appearance scheduled for November 3 at C Art Media.
- Argentine artists held a prominent place on the bill, including Winona Riders, Camionero, Juana Aguirre, Evlay, Isla Mujeres, Fonso, Las Paritarias, Sakatumba and OK Pirámides.
- Other standout performances included The Whitest Boy Alive’s precise, warm groove and Yo La Tengo’s expansive electric set following an acoustic sideshow the previous night at Deseo.
