LUC VAN ACKER
plays
"EXTREME GENTLEMAN"

(a solo project)

"Extreme Gentleman" is the new solo project of enfant terrible Luc Van Acker (known from himself, Arbeid Adelt!, Revolting Cocks, Ministry, Shriekback and much more!). This time our dare-all is armed only with his voice, a tape-machine and projection slides confronting the audience, as well as himself, with an experimental trip going from dark industrial and noisy soundscapes to more accessible tunes and back again.
Support band: Companions In Art (Electro-Wave, B)
After party with danceable weird shit spun by DJ BORG. Doors: 20h Damage: €8 Crime Scene: Bar Mondial, Suikerrui(g) 13, Antwerp

NEW WAVE NIGHTS
(Every 3^rd Saturday of the month)

On these nights, inspired by the legendary parties at Antwerp’s Wave/Goth/Electro temple of the '90's ‘Limelight/Follies’, we try to revive the atmosphere and ambiance of those club nights without being, just like back then, too narrow-minded!

This time Resident DJ's BORG & E-VO will spin for you some of the best danceable Wave/Electro/Goth/Industrial & Alternative music that is out there.

Doors: 23h @ Den Aalmoezenier, Aalmoezenierstraat 45, Antwerp

THE NEON JUDGEMENT

No need to introduce THE NEON JUDGEMENT!
Mister 'Dirk Da Davo' & 'TB Frank' are playing together since 1982 (first single "Faktory walk") and over a quarter of a century after that release, The Neon Judgement appears to be overtaking time.
The band's creative model – electronic music with a rock approach – now exists in many forms and varieties.
We're proud to present these Belgian new-wave-EBM-godfathers for a steaming, uplifting concert in a great atmosphere !
ROCK 'N ROLL !!!
BodyBeats will be present with their official merch stand!

RECOIL
Selected Events Tour 2010

Recoil is a musical project created by former Depeche Mode member Alan Wilder who replaced Vince Clark as writer/composer/producer and keyboardplayer. Essentially a solo venture, Recoil began whilst Wilder was still in Depeche Mode (1982-1995), as an outlet for his experimental, less pop-oriented compositions. His first release 1+2 eventually came out in mid-1986, not long after the release of Depeche Mode's well-received album Black Celebration.

BodyBeats Productions

ZEROMANCER + NO MORE
(Industrial-Metal, Norway) (Post-Punk-Electro-Wave, D)

ZEROMANCER emerged around the year 2000 & immediately draw attention with their single and like named debut album ‘Clone Your Lover'. Their follow-up album ‘Eurotrash' did again very well with hit singles like ‘Dr Online' and ‘Need You Like A Drug'.
Today they will pass by Antwerp to present us their new and already 5th album ‘The Death Of Romance'.
NO MORE is best known froml their 12" ‘Suicide Commando'. A record which should be in any respectable music collection. After their successful passage at the BIMFEST 2008 and their recently released magnificent new double-A-sided single called 'Sunday Mitternacht / A Rose Is A Rose' we thought it was about time to invite them again.
