Viral Radio presents Hyperrhythm
Viral Radio introduces Hyperrhythm at North Sea Jazz Festival this Friday: Dimlite, Hudson Mohawke, Dorian Concept, Mike Slott, Cinnaman and Juha. In 2006, Viral Radio started out as a radio show covering dubstep on Dutch public radio. Four years later, it has become part of an international network of the beat-driven electronic music vanguard. At North Sea Jazz Festival, Hyperrhythm tries to represent the whole spectrum of frequencies and speeds currently controlling dance floors around the world.

Viral Radio presents Hyperrhythm at North Sea Jazz
After weeks of secretiveness and diplomacy, the moment has come that we can finally announce our programme for the North Sea Jazz Festival 2010. The festival is widely acknowledged as the one of the biggest jazz festivals in the world, and has a strong reputation for showcasing many different areas of jazz and improvised music from all eras. Viral Radio is outlandishly honoured to host its own stage.
From the press release:
In the past few years in various cities around the world, scenes of musicians have popped up with a heightened interest in complex rhythmstructures of changing speeds and intensities. These hyperrhythms are created by producers who have grown up in an ocean of sound of ubiquitous media, from computer games to iPhones, and who are connected through a myriad of online networks. More than once, these producers know the hardware and software better than their developers, mutating into architects of complex, gravity-defying structures.
Cities as Los Angeles, Glasgow and London are their main protagonists, with labels as Brainfeeder, LuckyMe and Warp. In Amsterdam, Viral Radio has been active as a vehicle for the dissemination of these new electronic musics since 2007, with regular programmes at Trouw and the Bimhuis.
Programme:
Dimlite (CH)
Hudson Mohawke (UK)
Dorian Concept (AU)
Mike Slott (IRE)
We hope to see you all there, and look forward to an incredible evening.
