The Decibel Festival is Coming

This is where I’ll be next weekend, if anyone’s looking for me: Hopping from venue to venue with my new camera as I soak in the sights and sounds of an incredible and diverse lineup at the year’s Decibel Festival.

From the site:

“2008 marks the 5th anniversary of the Decibel Festival, an annual event held in Seattle that has now become one of North America’s preeminent electronic music events. To coincide with this landmark year, Decibel has planned its most ambitious festival to date; featuring more than 120 acts representing 12 different countries, organized within 25 showcases across 11 different venues.

The lineup is not only massive but also the most diverse yet, increasing the international stature and range of artists, representing everything from underground dance to instrumental hip hop to experimental audio / visual performance. Adding to the traditional club events, this year’s program will feature a two-day conference, multimedia showcases, a BBQ, a free outdoor park event, an ambient dinner theater and an overall theme of sustainability in the arts (read below for complete details on the 2008 Decibel Festival program).

The four-day Decibel International Festival of Electronic Music Performance, Visual Art and New Media will take place September 25th – 28th. Check out the rest of our site for more information about the 2008 Decibel Festival.
