ORWO Special act: Nuno & The End – Pilot Performance

“Schizophrenic solo act for humans”

This year we’re proud to present a fantastic live act, who have their home base at the ORWOHaus Musikfabrik – Nuno & The End:

A solo act by Nuno Filipe where, by atmospheric sounds, a psychedelic and sometimes neurotic maze of reflective travel is proposed to the audience. An almost imperfect symbiosis between sound, will, a guy, two keyboards, and one or two lamps.

We want you to dance!

Dipswitch (cancelled)

Unfortunately dispwitch can’t make it this time due to unforseen circumstances. But he will be back at Deadline!

scamp

Scamp will return for Deadline, to make the crowds dance to cheesy but banging hardcore tunes from back from the nineties up to the (rare) newest releases and bootlegs. Replacement legs will not be provided.

ektr0

ektr0 will join the lineup on Friday with a fine set of scene releases from the 00s & 10s, salted with a grain of improvised live remix elements.

Ronny

Ronny wants you to dance. You know you want it too.

Team210

Deadlines love for synthwave is unbroken!
Therefore we’re pleased to announce that qm will bring us once more a selection of the finest synthwave tracks, accompanied by stylish live visuals by nr4. Both are members of Team210 and will make you dance like it’s 1983 again!

dritter

At the end of the Saturday compo night, dritter will make the walls of the ORWOHaus shake as you will dance like there’s no tomorrow. Good that there’s an extra day for recovery afterwards!
