Turbinenhalle, Oberhausen, Germany18th March 2017
E-Tropolis Festival 2017 with Front 242, Covenant, Agonoize, Neuroticfish, Solar Fake, solitary Experiments and many more
Rough on the shell, clamorous at the core – the E-Tropolis Festival continues! For the seventh time our machine warriors march into position again for a “BETTER-HARDER-LOUDER“ festival extravaganza of the electronic kind. Enjoy the crackling and bristling of electric current and get injected with the finest highlights of DARK ELECTRO, EBM, SYNTHPOP and INDUSTRIAL – perfectly orchestrated on two stages, 18th March 2017 at Turbinenhalle Oberhausen.
For the fourth time, the E-Tropolis Festival will take place at the Turbinenhalle in Oberhausen after the festival moved from Berlin to the Ruhr valley in 2014. And again the line-up is a whoopee for everyone who loves electronic music from the dark side! Headliners are FRONT 242, a pleasure for all old-school EBM lovers. As always, lovers of several kinds of electronic music will find their favourite bands within the line-up:
So it's quite a line-up in a location which couldn't be more perfect for this kind of music. The Turbinenhalle is a former industrial building, a hydroelectric power plant for the Ruhr valley's past steel industry, to be more precise. Quite apt for a festival for EBM, Synth Pop and Industrial! The move from Berlin to Oberhausen was also a smart move in other regards, since the Ruhr area is one of Europe's largest urban agglomerations and a place which is a traditional stronghold of all things EBM, Industrial, Gothic and so on. Plus it's rather close to Belgium and the Netherlands and thanks to the many airports there it's just a short flight from most European countries. You should definitely get your tickets in advance!
