BETTINA KÖSTER (GER)

In 1979 Bettina Köster and Gudrun Gut opened the Eisengrau store in Berlin, a meeting point for the local underground and venue for exhibitions, concerts, super 8 films, punk fashion and a cassette label of the same name, which released recordings of "genius dilettante" groups Einstürzende Neubauten, Die Tödliche Doris, Frieder Butzmann and Köster and Gut's own band Mania D (with Beate Bartel of Liaisons Dangereuses). All these groups were at the time pushing the definition of music to its limits, creating new forms and unheard sounds within a self-organized network. Bettina's next band was Malaria!, known for brilliant songs like "Kaltes Klares Wasser" or "Your Turn to Run". In recent years she has played with no wave groups The Vanishing and Autonervous. In 2009 she released her first solo album "Queen Of Noise". Don't miss this special performance!

MITTLAND OCH LEO (BE)
Mittland och Leo is a duo consisting of Antwerpian Joke Leonare and Milan Warmoeskerken. They create instrumental songs with melancholic organ and Casio sounds, echoes and a rhythm box. The music sits seemingly simple in another, perhaps the reason why this psychedelic organ exotica sounds so refreshing. Their debut 7” has been released on Ultra Eczema.

ANGELS IN AMERICA (NY, USA)
Angels in America is the duo of Moppy Pont and Merv Glisten, based in New York. Filthy electronics in the footsteps of Throbbing Gristle with a damaged pop side, almost always falling apart with lyrics spun from some poet head zone. Their first tape “Cunt Tree Grammar” was re-released through Thurston Moore’s Ecstatic Peace label. 
CITY HANDS (Den Haag)
Born a punk and raised a rainbow watcher, Manuel Padding aka City Hands has been active as a music citizen and a renowned butterfly observer for a few decades now. As a free-minded follower of Gustav Metzger and a reader of early science-fiction free press, M.P. believes in the creative powers of destruction and in the secret forces lying in forgotten languages. His fluid compositions aim to create rich underground communities that would stand against corruption worldwide. - Professeur X.G.B. Bongo
BRIAN D MCKENNA (Ottawa, Canada)
Through the use of analogue audio/video synthesis, McKenna’s performances create mind-melting synesthetic progressions of visceral, seemingly abstract sound and vision. His continually evolving setups of self-built and heavily customized gear employ constructive and destructive interference patterns to the task of exploring resonances within specific space and time across hybrid media.
