COSMOS EMBASSIES
We invite vibrant music communities from every corner of the map to become COSMOS Embassies, and to share their stories–both online and offline–through mixtapes, film, live radio, conversations and performances.
Each year, the Embassies present commissioned short documentaries about their local scenes. These films are screened at the festival as well as freely available online via leguesswho.com/cosmos. In 2023, the COSMOS Embassies were located in Vietnam (V2X Mag), Greece (stegi.radio), Canada (POP Montréal), Australia (Liquid Architecture), UAE (Sharjah Art Foundation), Peru (Buh Records), Ghana (Oroko Radio), and Indonesia (NORRM & LaMunai Records).

Press Archive
Our press archive includes press previews, reports and interviews for LGW23.
"Kate jumped in the crowd and said hello, giggling, we said hello back. I have never seen her so chirpy. The brilliant Dopamine, the set closer, involved a glorious cod-mime phone conversation, which we all fell for. Thank God we saw it. I wish the world could." - Louder Than War
"A festival where even artists and musicians feel at home, taking a break from grueling tours. Just look at how they stroll around, smiling and relaxed. And how could we forget that time when Björk—an artist that Le Guess Who? even had the luxury of not announcing—stood in line waiting to enter a venue, just like everyone else?" - Armadillo Furioso
