SCHLOSS TEGAL
"Psychogenic Music from Neoterrik Research"

Existing in a world of insensibilities for those who are eradicable. A fine art to survive as true homo-centrics. The bio-electric energy streams are the psychic core and mark the present possibilities yet to evolve. Alchemical processes, synthesis, purification, electronic psycho-acoustics in a shroud of mystery. "Nothing is sacred anymore" A slow decay on this terminal beach. The paradigm is already set and waits for us to assist in the mystery of its making, of its transmutation, from potentiality to actuality.

INSTITUTION D.O.L. (AUT)

After exactly 20 years, Austria´s one and only active Power Electronics act INSTITUTION D.O.L. returns to the place where its debut concert was held in 1999.
INSTITUTION D.O.L. was founded in 1998 by Barbie B., who sees and describes the work and music as Industrial Music, as an ultimate soundtrack for visualising all aspects of life.
And this can be very much, from quiet ambient tracks to rolling and rhythmic heavy patterns to harsh sounds.
You can expect a special set for the GAME OF DRONES festival.
Barbie B. and his partner Meta Dolor also will present their coming record "Our Love Can Destroy This Whole Fucking World" (TORM Ent.).
This is going to be an intense evening! Promised!
