And with Live Digital Painting by Hyver!

Luke Vibert, UK/Planet-Mu, Rephlex, Warp
www.planet-mu.com/artists/Luke_Vibert
Acid-ambient-funk-RnB maven of the Cornwall Skool -- with fellow alums Aphex Twin and Squarepusher -- Luke Vibert has been pushing vinyl under as many monikers as music styles since the early days of UK electronica. Ubiquitous and chimeric, but always of incomparable quality, Luke’s live performances and DJ sets beg the question “Was there musical life Before (Wagon) Christ?”

DJ Remarc, UK/Planet-Mu
www.planet-mu.com/artists/Remarc
DJ Remarc’s sound has embodied the dark, rough and teeming streets since he first anointed the global urban-jungle with his Amen Break in the early nineties. Bringing Revelations to the masses from his own version of The (Jungle) Book, The Don delivers a threat of fire and brimstone with but a small hope for salvation of our souls. And we are, like lambs to the slaughter, gleefully converted. Tonight, it’s a good thing Remarc has already taught us to pray (can I get an “amen”?), for we are about to get murdered.

Bong-Ra, NL/Death$ucker, Ad Noiseum

A Jason Köhnen performance is like a jovial romp through Aleister Crowley’s Book of the Law rendered fantasy reading for every horny, pot-smoking adolescent still residing in The Land of the Living-Dead. His VVikkedness’ turntable sermons preach a version of Eternal Damnation fettered with everything from goat sacrifice to skantily-clad bimbos enticingly poised over souped-up dream cars -- to which his minions croak “The Gates of Hell be OPENED!”

DJ Donna Summer, US/CockRockDisco, Sonig

McArthur Park is melting in the dark because Jason Forrest has just set off a musical WMD in the vicinity, and now there’s “sweet, green icing flowing down” all over the damn place! We don’t know if it’s anthrax in his envelop or some other powder, but DJ Donna Summer can unleash enough euphorigenic energy in one five-minute number to surgically kill Disco, Punk, Rock, New Wave and any other innocent musical-genre-bystander (was that the 70s, 80s or 90s?) in a four-decade radius. No. You didn’t hear it On the Radio. You heard it HERE. Now put on your “Get Physical” t-shirt and go check it out!

Sickboy, BE/Wood, Peace-Off, Tigerbeat6
www.myspace.com/milkplussickboy
Imagine a dedicated Manowar maniac with the 'wimps & posers leave the hall' principle, incarnated in a sparkling aural torturous display of mashed-up breakbeat galore. Gonna clear rooms quicker than a megaton fire alert, and sure to leave the patriotic-minded behind with a hammer smashed face. Music that'll stir up any godforsaken industrial pigeonhole with a whirlwind.

Droon, BE/Wood
www.droon.org
wood.widerstand.org
The only laptop musician we’ve ever seen perform wearing a crash-helmet, Droon (aka Wiliam Ghysels) may actually be on to something. With “Cripple Fight”-- his latest brain-dashing, gut-crunching chart-topper in listener-challenged audio -- our fave hong-kong-phooey of the Breakcore Gives Me VVood movement, and Graphique Artiste Extraordinaire, Droon has elevated back-room brawling to stage-front de rigueur. Pack your crutches and your Everlasts, and get ready to be KO’d.

Hellboy, BE/CITV Mashup Crew

Electronica's equivalent of a broken washing machine, he manages to fit a whole drum kit inside, spins it at over a hundred degrees and everything still comes out dirty! You wouldnt want your zannussi to operate in such a profound manner but the truth is after hearing this guy play i want mine to!

Hyver, BE/Visual Artist
