Not to miss:
On friday and saturday, the 23rd and 24th of april 2010 Forms Of Hands 10 will happen at Grubenausbauwerkstatt at Zeche Auguste Victoria in Marl – a historical monument of the mining industry. First announced to take place at Maschinenhalle Zweckel in Gladbeck it had to be moved to the new location in Marl as the owner of the Maschinenhalle was not able to provide the venue. You will get 14 Hands label-acts on two days – besides well-known Hands projects like Mono No Aware and Orphx, the new label members like Nullgrad, Morbus M., 16Pad Noise Terrorist and 13th Monkey will play for the first time live at Forms Of Hands. On the dj side you will get two teams – on friday DJ SPUTNIK (S.K.E.T.) vs. DJ Thedi (13th MONKEY) and on saturday DJ Leif (MONO NO AWARE) vs. DJ NULLVEKTOR – on the visual side Audiophob will please your eyes.

Back at home from an absolute fantastic Elektroanschlag 11 weekend! Photos of the festival and the 13th Monkey Set will be posted in the next days – as a start here is my playlist of my dj set at the warmup party at the Villa Bar:

Playlist Thedi @ Elektroanschlag 11 Warmup 25.03.10 Villa Bar Altenburg

01. Mono-Amine – Democracy Is A Dying Giant
02. Imminent – Teskede
03. Monokrom – Wiz Ga-Wiz
04. Matter – Gesture
05. Exocet – Aegade Järjestus
06. The PCP Principle – Tension Point
07. Tymon – Desolation
08. Satronica – Life Blood Pain Death (Tymon Remix)
09. KiEw – Stille/Stimme
10. Dolphin – Soul Cannibal
11. The Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble – Lead Squid

BTW:
For your touristic pleasures I recommend the Altenburg island zoo (also a perfect sample source – especially the Cröllwitzer turkey hen and the Höcker goose are always willing to deliver some very special sounds), for your culinary pleasures you should try out Cafe Domizil – great breakfast (which is also served in the early afternoon) and some very tasty in-house made tarts and cakes . Everything else to be happy you will get directly at the brewery-Tenne at the Elektroanschlag – next time in 2011.

An event which you definately SHOULD visit is the Elektroanschlag on March 26/27, 2010 in Altenburg / Germany – for the 11th time now – and this year with 13th Monkey!
Elektroanschlag is a small and fine industrial and noise festival in Altenburg, Thüringen (near Leipzig). Many projects and bands that will play Maschinenfest or other festivals later on will play Elektroanschlag first, so don’t miss it!

One day before the festival, on thursday, March 25, 2010, you can get in Elektroanschlag mood at the official warm-up party at the Villa Bar Altenburg. DJs: M., Jana Dark, PapaLoco, Thedi.

As the Kanonenhaus in Altenburg burned down last Saturday the Elektroanschlag will now be held in 2 locations. This will lead to small changes – Thedi (GNM, 13th Monkey) will now dj on Saturday, the 04.04.09 (together with Sputnik and Paradroid) as there will be no after show party on Friday.

Here are more details taken of the EA-newsletter:

EA10 will be held in 2 locations – this was the best and only viable option!

FRIDAY – “MUSIC HALL”, Johannisgraben 4, 04600 Altenburg, near the Brüderkirche/Markt.
SATURDAY – “TENNE” der ALTENBURGER BREWERY, Brauereistrasse 20, 04600 Altenburg, near the Train Station/Hotel Astor.

We will post a route planner on our homepage, as well as several EA-Signs on both days throughout Altenburg.

Furthermore, there will be a small change in the line-up. S.K.E.T. will play Saturday after THIS MORN’ OMINA. Therefore, there will be 8 Acts Friday and 10 Acts Saturday. This is due to the fact that we are only permitted to play loudly until 3 A.M. at the Music Hall. We ask for your understanding.

Also, regarding the sale of merchandise, there will be restrictions on Friday, simply because the Music Hall is not very big.

If you want to support us buy a lot of wonderful EA-Shirts!
