Sonar 2007 lineup additions - Richie Hawtin & more

Sonar have announced some last minute additions to this year’s festival lineup. The usual diverse lineup can be expected from the music confirmed for the festival’s day and night-time line-ups.

The dark ambient-rock of Sunn 0))), techno en masse supplied by Richie Hawtin, the rave-pop of Digitalism and Calle 13’s reggaeton have all been added to spice up the lineup.

Also from the world of noise comes Blixa Bargeld, the vocalist from the legendary group Einstürzende Neubauten, who will be at Sonar by Day to perform with FM3, the inventors of the famous Buddha Machines and one of China’s most important electronic groups.

Hip-hop and the various facets of pop increase their presence at Sónar by Day with Infinite Livez vs. Stade feat. Joy Frempong and Hey Willpower.

Other highlights are the new showcases by Accidental (Matthew Herbert’s label), OndandOn Records & French Music Export Office and Rush Hour presenting Beat Dimensions. James Holden will also provide a special set, which he has announced will differ from his usual sound.

Richie Hawtin returns for his traditional tumultuous session, and for the first time together with his friend Ali Demirel on visuals.

This Japanese group Romantica combines music, performance and cabaret in an erotic-musical spectacle that has captivated audiences all over the world.

The shows by Digitalism, cutting edge remixers and stars of the new-rave movement Modeselektor DJ-team and Damian Schwartz vs. Tadeo will prove to be interesting viewing.
