Dear E-tropolis Fans, on 5th March 2016 the festival is back to shatter the walls of the Turbinenhalle Oberhausen. On two stages you can expect the best of EBM, industrial, electro- & synthpop again with 15 amazing artists. Bringing the line-up to a close, we are extremely happy to present a wonderful band that’s currently praised by a fast growing fanbase: KITE!The two-piece, consisting of Nicklas Stenemo and Christian Berg belongs in every aspect to the most extraordinary synthpop bands. While the Swedes consequently defied the usual mechanisms of the music industry, for example by releasing six consecutive EPs instead of a fulltime album, they put a strong emphasis on analogue sounds with heart and soul, that carry all the way through - from the studio recordings to the performance live on stage.
Almost impertinently catchy sounds blend with Stenemo’s extremely memorable voice and create emotional 80s-style hymns that go deep under the skin. KITE’s rare live-concerts are almost spiritual highlights that merge to an emotional blend of dreamscape and reality. Like a taste? Click here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=reX1OHI1m_Q.
With KITE marking our final new entry, we’re truly looking forward to March now. It’s going to be a massive one as the full line-up looks as follows: AND ONE + HOCICO + FRONTLINE ASSEMBLY + SUICIDE COMMANDO (VINTAGE SET) + WELLE: ERDBALL + DIORAMA + THE CASSANDRA COMPLEX + ASSEMBLAGE 23 + LEGEND + CHROM + KITE + WINTERKÄLTE + HENRIC DE LA COUR + ORANGE SECTOR + HARMJOY
The DJ line-up and supporting programme will be announced at a later time!
