2010 DECIBEL FESTIVAL PRELIMINARY LINE UP ANNOUNCED
2010 Decibel International Festival of Electronic Music Performance, Visual Art and New Media
Over the past seven years, Decibel has booked over 600 artists ranging from experimental, to leading-edge electronic dance music and visual art. With a focus on live performance, interactive multimedia art, state-of-the-art sound and technology-based education, Decibel has solidified itself as one of the premier electronic music festivals and promotional organizations in the world.
In preparation for the 2010 Decibel Festival (September 22-26) we’ve been announcing one artist a day through-out the month of May. So far the feedback to the initial line up, which consists of several past highlights as well as over a dozen NW debuts, has been overwhelmingly positive. With four months left to go and dozens of artist announcements still to come, the 2010 Decibel Festival preliminary line up appears to be generating as much excitement as any previous year’s program.
