We are happy to announce some interesting news about the forthcoming 6th
alfa-centauri electronic music festival, which will take place at saturday,
april 10, 1999 in theatre 3-in-1 in Huizen, the Netherlands
First of all there will be performances of Tim Blake, Redshift, T-Bass UK,
Ramp and Stratosphere
Furthermore we will have at least musical demonstrations of Emagic/Logic
products, Korg and some other equipment as well. Due to our experience with
last festival's demos we have decided to look after some prominent musicians
to do these demo's, so keep tuned for more info. At this moment three out of
four of the main sponsors have been confirmed: Interface Magazine, Korg
Netherlands (Voerman) and Emagic/Logic Netherlands (Mopro).
We have some special news about Tim Blake's performance: Tim will release his
new CD 'Crystal Island - tide of the century' just before the festival and he
will play lots of tracks from this CD. But he promised to play some real
Blake-classicals as well. (Like the 99-version of Blake's New jerusalem...)
Furthermore he announced some very special parts in his act about which we
will inform you within the next couple of months. Also T-Bass UK announced to
release their 2nd CD "Generator" just before the festival and we are looking
forward to the 3rd CD of Redshift, we assume this will be ready just in time
for the festival as well.
