Mono Electronic Density (M∃D), the Belgian electro band composed of Bernard Feron and R-Mod 654, has just released a new song and video: "The Best Of You"! Peek-a-boo is happy to be the first to inform you!
This new song is part of a trilogy to announce the band's second album 'Human Inhuman', due to be released by the end of 2012 on Digital Density Records.
The two other video's will be published in June and in July. Stay tuned!
These days, it's hard for bands to finance a new release or to finance the promotion around it. It's becoming more and more a method for bands to release new material with the (financial) help of their fans.
Oswald henke's band, HENKE, is also looking for fans to support their new album, “Maskenball der Nackten”.
You can already support them for only 25 euro, which will give you a signed copy of this new release. But also a meet & greet on the tour , or even visiting the band while recording the album are possibilities.
Check it out, & don't forget to support !

As the saying goes: "The early bird catches the worm"! Eight months before the event, Protain, the organizers, are already announcing their Christmas Ball Festivals, which will be held in Cologne, Hanover and Berlin on 25th, 26th and 27th December 2012.
For the 6th edition, the line-up will be headlined by the Bavarian electro-rockers EISBRECHER, whose current opus „Die Hölle muss warten“ („Hell has to wait“) is doing very well in the charts. Furthermore electronic-pioneers PROJECT PITCHFORK will return in 2012 for more Christmas Ball extravaganza. With heavy electronics and inventive sounds the band from Hamburg combines strong lyrical concepts with timeless sounds for a dark club culture, still holding on close to the wind after more than 20 years. The program also includes US-based band THE CRÜXSHADOWS and Berlin-based newcomers THE WARS.
Ticket pre-selling for the Christmas Ball Festivals starts today, on 27.04.2012. Tickets are available at the Protain ticketshop under www.protain-ticket.de. The ticket price amounts at 29,00 € plus charges.

Due to very bad pre-sales the BodyBeats organisation was forced to cancel their festival. Read their comment below.
We hope this will inspire more people to buy tickets in pre-sales for all kinds of events - since this is the only way our beloved organizers can keep up their good work. All our respect & gratitude go to BBP !
BODYBEATS FEST 2012 CANCELLED!
It's with pain in our heart we have to announce that we decided to cancel our BodyBeats Festival 2012.
The reason is simple: Almost no pre-sale tickets sold! :( With only one week to go this is the hard but right decision to make.
Not cancelling this event would jeopardize the future of BodyBeats
We are sorry for the inconvenience this may have caused to some of you.
