Maschinenfest 2k12

MF is over (ok, since 2 weeks…..) but it was great as expected. Most important Mandy was with us and she loved it which is really great. Crowd was cool well and music/noise/people – excellent. Met guys I just only see once a year and said “hello” to a lot of them.
Unfortunately a cold catches me und my beloved wife so we´re sick now since 2 weeks. That´s crap. But we´ll join MF next year again for sure. Some words to the organisers. Great job done. Everything smooth and relaxed. Some things we missed. No chill-out (and I mean really chill-out with no music) area detected and some chairs would be great to have here. Well the crowd becomes older and older and yes it´s true elderly people like to sit and drink beer and enjoy the show…..
So see you all next year at the Turbinenhalle@Oberhausen for MF 2k13. Stay tuned. Meanwhile you may like to have a look hear , a famous podcast I´ld like to share Industrial Strength Nightmares by Edwin Somnambulist

Maschinenfest 2k11

As well as the last year Maschinenfest takes place in Oberhausen, Ruhr area, Germany. One of the biggest events for industrial/noise music. We arrived yesterday and it´s perfect. Very smooth, friendly people and a lot of good music. Line up for this year can be found here Line up MF 2k11 And even it´s early in the morning (if you went to sleep an 5 am) I´m looking forward for tonight. Special thanks to my buddies it´s a fun to be here with you. And a big hug to my wife she stays at home but I miss you my darling….
Update: MF was great. Best acts (from my point of view) were N.Ä.O (sorry guys no website found) and spherical disrupted (thx to Mirko) Spherical Disrupted We had a lot of fun and hopefully we´ll see us again for MF 2k12.

Maschinenfest 2k10

Yesterday was our first night at Maschinenfest 2k10. Great. Met old buddies and I was surprised how good the connection still ist. Industrial projects were pretty cool, best yesterday for me was Config.Sys (as soon as the lady stopped singing…) but the others were good too. I missed Mandelbrot which is a project of one of my buddies as well as 13thMonkey which is a side project of Thedi from K.I.E.W .. sorry guys. We had beer and music and some fantastic chats, let me say thx to my pretty awesome companion Anja. *hug* So let´s see what tonight is going on , looking forward to see and hear Winterkälte and many other more projects. Anja mentioned right now for her best was Bipol….
Update 2nd Day. More noise and industrial, for sure. Also very smooth sounds from ABs6 and Subheim. Ah-Cama-Sotz were good as I remembered old gigs. Winterkälte gives you the smash right into your brain. Excellent performances. It´s a pitty that we miss today, coz of a heavy workload from tomorrow but at least next year Maschinenfest is pre-booked for me…. Hope to see all guys again. Special thx to Babsi and Chris and Sina and Usch (old buddies from d.s.s.g) ….
