EASTATES Vol.2: Analog Balaton (live), Ferko + more
Entry Requirements: over 18s only
Techno Bass After a successful first in November, Eastates returns for a second edition! This time we are presenting you the contemporary sound of Hungary with indie electronic duo Analog Balaton. The duo started in 2017 and quickly gained popularity, selling out venues, appearing on many festivals in Hungary and beyond and sharing the stage with internationally acclaimed acts such as Bonobo, Weval and Bob Moses. Their sound incorporates elements of house, indie pop and alternative music, often combining bright melodies with brooding atmospheres. While a lot of the current dance music is accelerating in BPMs, Analog Balaton goes against the grain with their slowly evolving rhythms creating almost a shamanic experience, enriched with solid bass lines and beautifully designed sounds of our age. Enigmatic lyricism is also a big part of the band’s appeal, as they touch topics of depression, alienation and hopelessness of our generation. Their live performances are famous for their unique energy, where a gradually evolving stream of music and slow-build up to the peak invites the audience to get lost in a trance-like state. Supporting Analog Balaton, Glasgow-based Hungarian producer Ferko will take us on an audio-visual journey through his personal experience of living in Scotland. On top of that, Emission and Mynameis will be dusting off their gear to bring you two more live electronic performances. And after the live show, Half Past Now resident DJs will keep the party going with HIGHSHIFTING delivering an unlikely combination of folk and bass and Kernius teaming up with Doomsidius to close the night. All accompanied by immersive visuals from Glasgow’s VJ royalty _moventia. ✵ Early bird tickets from 10£, 15£ OTD. ✸ 5£ after 00:00 if you can't make it to the live part of the event!
