1919

1919 were formed in late 1980 Bradford, UK, and were one of the band’s championed by Legendary Dj John Peel as early contributor to the emerging Gothic Rock genre.

Having returned more than 30 years after disbanding with 2016’s Death Note EP, Mark Tighe and Mick Reed, the band’s original core members, had enlisted bassist Karl Donner and a new vocalist Rio Goldhammer. The result was their second album Bloodline, which was the long awaited follow-up to 1983’s Machine LP. However the new record’s release in 2017 would come under tragic circumstances, hitting the shelves shortly after losing guitarist Tighe to cancer in January of that year.The band's third studio album, Futurecide charts the journey of 1919 through this fraught and turbulent period: suffering tragedy, coping with loss, and eventually finding a cautious optimism.

25apr1:00 pm11:59 pmARTEFAKTOR LIVE 4 : London

Artefaktor Live 4 London - Berlin - Copenhagen

In 2020 the best electronic music festival in the world returns... Artefaktor Live 4! And this time it’s even bigger and better, three events three weekends running in three different European cities!

We kick things off back in London on April 25th 2020 at our usual home of Electrowerkz in Islington. The following weekend we move to Berlin in Germany on May 2nd before landing in Scandinavia a week later on May 9th in Copenhagen, Denmark.

More bands than ever before across three festivals, electronic music has never sounded so good live.

The London event welcomes the majestic Fragrance. from France as headliners. As usual we have artists from around the globe to compliment each other and offer a wide range within the genre. Big Artefaktor Radio favourites HUGUENOT will be jetting in from the US to share the stage with UK home based talent such as the returning Cult With No Name, Nature of Wires, SOMBRE Moon along with Fourth Engine, The Rude Awakening and Neil Francis.

Also making the transatlantic trip are Honey Beard and Eric C Powell. e-bit once again will be representing Germany in London before appearing at all three festivals as we also welcome Electric City Cowboys and ProjectedMusic from Norway, Embrace The Crisis from Ireland, and a special mention for Nórdika making the trip from Artefaktor‘s spiritual home of Mexico.

All you need to do is arrive early and enjoy a procession of amazing music, sponsored by Electronic Sound Magazine.

On May 2nd we arrive in Berlin at ORWOhaus for the second leg of AL4. Berlin on the weekend of Labor Day is always a very special place to be.

Headlining are Psyche who are certain to draw a large crowd. e-bit return back to their home city after London the week before, and joined by fellow German-based acts Microwelt and Cosaquitos en Globo, who keep the Latin American flavour to the event with their Argentinian roots.

One of the big success stories of the last two years Vogon Poetry make the trip over from Sweden, and Static Shore return to Europe from the US after appearing at AL3 in 2019.

Keeping the continuity from the weekend in before in London, Huguenot, Nature Of Wires and Eric C. Powell complete the line up.

A week later and the third and final part of the festival sees us in Copenhagen, Denmark at Krudttønden.

Popular exponents of the electro scene Deutsche Bank Machine-pop will headline as Scandinavia continues to grow as a hotbed for the genre.

Danish favourites to many listeners ManMindMachine represent their country on home soil, whilst AstroVoyager who impressed everyone in London at AL3 return once more from France.

Zero Call make the journey from Italy as Neil Francis once again will perform, on this occasion alongside long time collaborated Daysound. Cosaquitos En Globo and Static Shore continue where they left off in Berlin by travelling across to Denmark.

e-bit, Nature Of Wires, Huguenot and Eric C. Powell will complete the bill and appear at all three events.

Berlin and Copenhagen also sees @*Electro-Shock-Records* joining Electronic Sound Magazine in vert kindly sponsoring the event, their support is very much appreciated.
