Kornél Kovács to Headline Szentek 2018

Szentek announce Kornél Kovács to top their 2018 art and music extravaganza.

Kornél Kovács has been announced to headline Szentek 2018 on Thursday 15th November. The groundbreaking Swedish DJ will join the acclaimed New Zealand duo, Chaos in the CBD, along with a full line up set to be released in the coming weeks. Having “recently been dubbed one of Mixmag’s 20 best DJs in the world”, Kornél Kovács plays everything from house and drum’n’bass to disco and techno. An impressive booking from the Szentek committee to say the least, this year’s event is shaping up to be one of the best yet with varied, exciting, and characteristically ‘groovy’ artists:

“Kovács is renowned for his boundless attitude to genre, and that shines through his eclectic performances as well as his critically acclaimed productions. We are getting ready to put our grooving shoes on for the man who truly believes that, “the culture of getting together and dancing is not something to take for granted.”

Following the sold-out 2017 event, Szentek will return once again to electrify St Andrews. For those less acquainted with the event, Cassi gives us a run down on what to expect; 

Last year we saw Szentek adorn the rustic walls of Kinkell with original, purpose-made student artworks and experimental junk installations. Just outside of the town’s main centre, the venue is a barn deep in the Fife countryside which is transformed into an intimate haven for the electronic dance scene. 2017 saw Kinkell pulsate from floor to ceiling with the hypnotic techno beats of an impressive line-up that included Palms Trax, Damiano von Erckert, Capri Collective and an array of local names – Reclude, Max Dupa and Content.

To say the least, Szentek offers a change from the popular chart music that typically graces the Union. Even for those who are less familiar with the dance music scene, the event exposes us to a new and unique side of St Andrews nightlife and offers an exciting hybrid of entertainment, from art and film to performance and music. What originally was set up as a rebellion against St Andrew’s infamous elitist culture and poor nightlife-scene, Szentek has grown to become synonymous with both escape and self-expression.

In comparison to your standard Kinkell events, Szentek provides a much more affordable, accessible and funky opportunity to get down to a range of genres and sounds. Be sure to buy early, as high demand will see tickets disappear quickly.

Szentek 2018 takes place on Thursday the 15th of November at the Kinkell Byre from 8pm.

  2. Brands that manufacture chronometer watches
    Understanding COSC Certification and Its Importance in Horology
    COSC Certification and its Rigorous Standards
    Controle Officiel Suisse des Chronometres, or the Official Swiss Chronometer Testing Agency, is the official Switzerland testing agency that attests to the accuracy and precision of wristwatches. COSC accreditation is a sign of excellent craftsmanship and trustworthiness in chronometry. Not all timepiece brands pursue COSC certification, such as Hublot, which instead sticks to its own demanding standards with movements like the UNICO, achieving similar precision.

    The Science of Exact Timekeeping
    The central system of a mechanical watch involves the spring, which supplies power as it unwinds. This system, however, can be prone to environmental factors that may influence its accuracy. COSC-validated movements undergo rigorous testing—over fifteen days in various circumstances (5 positions, three temperatures)—to ensure their durability and reliability. The tests evaluate:

    Mean daily rate precision between -4 and +6 seconds.
    Mean variation, highest variation rates, and effects of thermal variations.
    Why COSC Certification Matters
    For timepiece enthusiasts and connoisseurs, a COSC-validated watch isn’t just a piece of technology but a testament to lasting excellence and precision. It represents a timepiece that:

    Provides exceptional dependability and accuracy.
    Offers guarantee of superiority across the complete construction of the watch.
    Is likely to retain its value better, making it a smart investment.
    Famous Chronometer Manufacturers
    Several renowned brands prioritize COSC certification for their timepieces, including Rolex, Omega, Breitling, and Longines, among others. Longines, for instance, provides collections like the Archive and Soul, which feature COSC-validated movements equipped with cutting-edge materials like silicone equilibrium springs to enhance resilience and performance.

    Historic Background and the Development of Timepieces
    The idea of the timepiece dates back to the requirement for precise timekeeping for navigation at sea, highlighted by John Harrison’s work in the eighteenth cent. Since the official establishment of Controle Officiel Suisse des Chronometres in 1973, the validation has become a yardstick for evaluating the accuracy of high-end watches, maintaining a legacy of superiority in watchmaking.

    Conclusion
    Owning a COSC-validated timepiece is more than an visual selection; it’s a dedication to excellence and precision. For those appreciating precision above all, the COSC accreditation offers peacefulness of mind, ensuring that each certified timepiece will perform reliably under various circumstances. Whether for personal contentment or as an investment decision, COSC-validated timepieces stand out in the world of horology, carrying on a legacy of meticulous chronometry.
