NFD and Deathcamp Project
The concert of the Londoners NFD and the Polish formation Deathcamp Project had been the one plenty of people had been waiting for. Actually the news that NFD is coming to play live in Poland had electrified people to the utmost degree. The agitation proved to be justified as what we experienced on 21st September in Wroclaw could be shortly called sonic attack on our souls, senses and minds as well.

Phillip Boa & the Voodooclub and Collie Electric
PHILLIP BOA is one of the very view Indie rock stars bred in Germany in the 80s. Pop and Avantgarde are the both poles of his work. Ingratiating melodies, impelling sounds and the voice of Pia Lund are the characteristics of BOA’s VOODOOCLUB. Three of his most important album now have been reworked and re-released. BOA himself took control over the re-mastering process of ‘Copperfield’, ‘Hair’ and ‘Hispanola’. Those albums impressed even the UK music press in the 80s and during the re-mastering, BOA rediscovered forgotten outtakes and unreleased songs. Today’s show was something special. It only consisted of those three albums where the presented songs were brought on stage in a new dress.

Camouflage and Kolkhorst
In the evening of Sunday, 17th September we went to Osnabrück to attend a concert of the famous German Synth-pop act CAMOUFLAGE who's promoting their brand new album which was released three weeks ago. The concert took place in the "Rosenhof" - a pretty location in the downtown of Osnabrück which was a cinema in the past and has retained its charming ambiance like a nightclub from the 60ies. When we arrived at half past seven, only a few people were in the house, some more came later in the course of time but I think altogether only about 150 people were in the club whereby it was a familiar atmosphere at the concert.

The second day began with rain – not again! Fortunately the showers were still empty, clean and warm. So I was prepared for a day filled with metal music. The line-up was very straight and there were only 5 minutes between the concerts, so I needed a coffee first.

The second festival day presented a perfect weather. After the night in the hotel – yeah, I guess we’re too old for camping – we showed up at the festival area just about 20 minutes before the first band entered the stage. That meant just enough time to have a short chat with some friends and some breakfast. While the first festival day was the day of the electro heroes on the main stage, the second day belonged more to the gothic, metal and medieval genre. Besides the main stage, the hanger was in the hand of all the electro freaks who had their dance party there which just started with ‘Solitary Experiments’ and showed a quite full hangar at the very beginning of the day. http://www.meraluna.de/
