Event update: Radiant Frequencies, 4 & 5 November, the Hague.
New genres of electronic dance music follow each other like night follows day. Shifting slowly from one mutation to the next, this electronic momentum moves forward with the speed of the internet, weaving a network of rhythmnodes of varying speeds and colours. From the darkness of dubstep to the lightness of UK funky. From the slowness of hiphop to the uptempo of juke.
Radiant Frequencies is a festival exhibition of cutting-edge musicians building bright synthetic structures of radiating dance music. This the soundtrack of the world of high definition gaming, 3D superheroes and superliminal neutrinos. And with zeitgeist-riders like Rustie, Kuedo and Dorian Concept, it is a who-is-who of the now.

FACT magazine highlights Rewire Festival, in which Viral Radio participates on 4 and 5 November in the Hague:
“The festival takes place in and around unusual venues in the heart of the city – examples offered by the press release include former office buildings, a church and an old powerplant. As well as live performances, Rewire will also be hosting contemporary art exhibitions, cinema, artist talks and lectures, many of which centre around the festival’s chosen themes of classical music and the influence of ’60s psychedelica in today’s electronic music.”
