Amsterdam Weekly shortlists Viral Radio Festival

Viral Radio Festival

“Electronic music is very much what our times are supposed to be about. For a beginner, though, things are quite complicated. All the names! All the subgenres! Take Viral Radio, which ‘covers new developments in beat driven electronic music, ranging from dubstep to aquacrunk.’ Okay, dubstep—one might have heard people talking about that. But the other one? The Viral Radio guys, though, do sound like they know what they’re talking about. They’ve been interviewing many other people that also seem to know what they’re talking about, like Kode9 and Rob Smith (of Smith & Mighty). And they’ve been organising parties with impressive line-ups including Rhythm & Sound, Pinch, 2562 and Cinnaman. Together with Juha from U Dub, the latter will host this mini-festival, which will furthermore offer a good chance to say goodbye to 11—that high-rise paradise of electronic music. On the bill at the other festival location, Bimhuis, are Moritz von Oswald trio, Ollie Bown and Sam Britton (Icarus), Take and Pete Concrete. Up in 11: Kode9 and King Midas Sound, Zomby, Darkstar and Ikonika, together with Ras G and Samiyam. Come. Dance. Learn.”
