Rome's Dissonanze Festival is set to enter its ninth year with a headlining performance from
Laurent Garnier.
The two day festival will run over the course of May 8-9 at the city's Palazzo dei Congressi conference centre, and boasts a well curated line-up that should appeal to a wide variety of electronic music fans. On Friday night, festival-goers can check out the new wave of wonky instrumental hip-hop (
Flying Lotus, Samiyam,
Daedelus), avant-garde electronics (Atom™,
Byetone) and floor-geared techno (
Kenny Larkin,
Moderat,
Magda), with Garnier headlining the following evening with his new live show, which will showcase his forthcoming
Tales Of A Kleptomaniac album.
Garnier's not the only one performing a new live show on the Saturday, however, as
Âme,
Henrik Schwarz and
Dixon will all come together for their new A Critical Mass project, which they premiered at
RA's Amsterdam Dance Event party last October.
Lindstrom and
Francois K will also take main stage slots, whilst the terrace has been programmed on a Afro-futurist bent, with
DJ Mujava,
Buraka Som Sistema and
Radioclit all making appearances.
