Planet Myer Day 12: S’Apex, Binary Park, Hecq, Klangstabil, Haujobb
It is kind if tradition – not only for me – to travel to Leipzig beginning of a new year for the Planet Myer day, taking place for the twelfth time already. People who did not buy a ticket in advance were really unlucky this time since the event was sold-out and the venue turned out to be really packed already for the first band, Daniel Myer’s project A’APEX. Today, there was no second floor and five bands were up to deliver high-class electronic music.

Eisbrecher Year-End Show with support of Darkhaus & Black Blitz
The year-end closing concert of the EISBRECHER tour took place at the Turbinenhalle (turbine hall) Oberhausen. Quite typical for the Ruhr area, the location was formerly built for industrial purposes. Built in 1909 to produce energy and compressed air to supply the ‘Iron hut II’, it was rebuilt several times since the 1980’s when the steel industry left Oberhausen. Nowadays the location is not only a place for live events of all kind, a discotheque, a restaurant and an indoor soccer ground, but it is also a stop station on the ‘Route of industrial culture’. The concert hall has approximately a capacity for 3,000/ 3,500 people standing and it was packed for the final EISBRECHER show of the year!

Samsas Traum - Acoustic Show
On the occasion of the Christmassy concert of SAMSAS TRAUM we travelled southwards to Marburg, the hometown of Alexander Kaschte, mastermind of SAMSAS TRAUM. As we arrived early we had the chance to walk around the picturesque city, visit the Christmas market and grab something to eat before we headed to the KFZ, an alternative cultural centre, where the concert took place.

BIM Fest 2013 Day 2: MRDTC, 6Comm, Brain Sektor, A Split Second, 32Crash, The Young Gods, Monolith
During the previous years, second day of BIM fest always stated on early afternoon, meaning there were many bands coming up and you would be totally knocked out at the end of the day. This year, the first band on Saturday would enter the stage at 18:00, so you had a lot of time before to relax after you probably got drunk during the first day’s after show party. Also the second festival day had big names on the bill, like i.e. THE YOUNG GODS promising an exclusive set.
