DISTORTION FESTIVAL II — A PERSONAL GUIDE

About this guide to Distortion 2009

In collaboration with Marks.dk (Thanks, man!) we bring to you, dear readers, a personal guide to the Copenhagen Distortion Festival, which we’ve mentioned previously. ||

I samarbejde med Marks.dk bringer vi her på musikblogs.dk en personlig guide til dette års Distortion Festival, som vi tidligere har omtalt.

From Twitter, to blogs to reclaiming the streets musically
The guide takes its point of departure in the Twitter music community where a lot of people had expressed interest as to which events were worth dropping by. Here’s Mark’s take on the situation: ||
Marks guide til Distortion-festivalen udspringer af twitter-samtaler med musikentusiaster om, hvilke events og koncerter der var værd at holde øje med / besøge. Her er Marks bud på arrangementet:

ONSDAG
Block Party: “Pisserenden” is always fun. If the sun is shining, expect lots of people dancing in the streets! Ezi Cut and Phase 5 will play hip hop beats. The über-hipsters will probably be in Krystalgade at Wood Wood’s party (Henrik Vibskov is playing). Silkegade seems to have the best line-up: Atle, Tolstrup, von Baden, Lulu Rouge and Daniel San are all playing. ||

Block Party: “Pisserenden” er altid good fun. Hvis solen skinner, kan du forvente at se masser af folk, der danser på gaden. Ezi Cut  & Phase 5 står for hip hop beats. Über-hipsterne er sikkert til Wood Woods fest i Krystalgade (hvor Vibskov spiller). Silkegade ser ud til at byde på det stærkeste line-up: Atle, Tolstrup, von Baden, Lulu Rouge & Daniel San.

TORSDAG
Block Party: Kasper Bjørke is playing in Skt. Hans Gade, and there will be lots of happenings around Skt. Hans Torv that day. Don’t forget to run by Track Bike Shop in Ryesgade to watch some fixie polo. If you’re in for the weird, Je M’Apelle Mads is playing at Blågårdsgade.||

Block Party: Kasper Bjørke spiller på Skt. Hans Gade, og der vil være masser af aktivitet omkring Skt. Hans Torv torsdag. Track Bike Shop i Ryesgade byder en omgang fixie polo. Hvis det skal være weirdo, så spiller Je MÄpelle Mads i Blågårsgade.

DJ-ikonet Carl Craig til Club Clash

Club Clash: One of the best Ibiza-DJs - Carl Craig – is playing at Korsgadehallen. Expect hard chicago techno at its best! M.A.N.D.Y plays as well – nice German house of the popular kind. Denmark is represented by Martinez & Fredski, Tomboy, Djuna Barnes, Tolstrup and Trentemøller. Proably the best Club Clash this year. ||

Club Clash: En af de bedte Ibiza-dj’s — Carl Craig — spiler i Korsgadehallen. Hård chicago techno, når den er bedst. M.A.N.D.Y spiller også — populær-orienteret tysk house. Danmark repræsenteres af Martinez & Fredsky samt Tomboy — der i parentes bemærket har stået for årets Distortion Compilation, som en venlig læser gjorde os opmærksom på i forbindelse med den indledende introduktion til festivalen — & Trentemøller. Det er nok årets stærkeste Club Clash-setup.

FREDAG
Block Party: Reggae at Sdr. Boulevard from 1 o’clock or rock at Sort Kaffe & Vinyl in Skydebanegade – your choice. From 7PM a Eco-parade is taking place with lots of Ellerter (!) going from Axeltorv through Skydebanegade and Sdr. Boulevard until Enghave Plads is reached where Ladybox plays. ||

Block Party: Reggae på Sdr. Boulevard fra kl. 10 — el. rock på Sort Kaffe & Vinyl i Skydebanegade — your choice. Fra 19.00 Eco-parade med masser af Ellerter fra Axeltorv, via Skydebanegade og Sdr. Boulevard til Enghaveplads, hvor Ladybox spiller.

Club Clash: Enghavevej 80 will host Ellen Allien from already legendary German label, Bpitch. Don’t miss it! There will be lots of other stages as well with DJs of every kind and genre. ||

LØRDAG
No block party, but dinner from 17-22 (don’t know where, but close to water as there will be a submarine and a boat).||

(don’t know them, but the name “Are You Stupid Or What?” sounds terrific). Huge party, but entrance fee of 160 kr. and a million people might prove hard to overcome…||
