Distortion update. Well you could have just as well gone to their site, but now you’re here. I’ll be drunk, you’ll be drunk, the whole city will be going crazy bananas and that’s pretty much all you need to know. Europe’s biggest party festival is roaring from its hind legs, fist in the air and no matter which way you swing it, this is why we live in the city! And this is why we choose Copenhagen.
The whole bloody thing is actually just a warm up for the Bitchslap 11 release party the following week on Friday June 11.
Here are some of the lovely names confirmed for this year. There’s probably a ton more by now (I got this mail weeks ago) but I’m too busy trying to find outfits for Europe’s Biggest Freestyle Dancing Competition to be digging my mails through for current shit.
Gus Gus (IS), MMM (DE), Die Vogel (DE), Ramadanman (UK), Rune rk, Fauna (RA), El Remolon (RA), El G (RA), Kenton Slash demon, Complicated Universal Cum, Simian Mobile Disco, Whomadewho, Morten Breum, Douster, Schlachthofbronx, Uproot Andy, Sleigh Bells, Beardyman, Nina Kraviz, Michael Meyer, Superpitcher, Justus Köhncke, Tobias Thomas, Jamie Jones, Len Faki, m.fl
