Second Line Up Announcement
Blasting off in 2009, the galaxy's favorite electronic celebration, the Future Music Festival, is set to take you to the far reaches of the musical universe and beyond! Featuring a blinding supernova of the finest electronic artists, The Future Music Festival has fast become a highly anticipated mainstay on the nations booming festival calendar.
Just when you thought the Future Music Festival couldn't get any better, Future Entertainment announces yet another round of the worlds most electrifying electronic artists:
Richie Hawtin
Grandmaster Flash*
Sander Kleinenberg
Stephan Bodzin LIVE**
Ian Carey
Wolfgang Gartner
Artist, DJ, conceptualizing ambassador, more than anyone else in modern electronic music, Richie Hawtin has relentlessly proved himself to be a true innovator. His Decks, EFX & 909 album released on NovaMute in 1999 expanded the concept of a DJ mix album beyond the imagination of most DJs, while breathtaking festival live sets at Glastonbury and Tribal Gathering fairly invented stadium Techno.
Grandmaster Flash meanwhile was not only the first DJ to physically lay his hands on the vinyl and manipulate it in a backward, forward or counter clockwise motion (when most DJs simply handled the record by the edges, put down the tone arm, and let it play) but by the end of the 70s, Flash had started another trend that became a hallmark of hip-hop: asking MCs to rap over his beats. Hawtin and Flash - they're innovators. And along with progressive/trance legend Sander Kleinenberg, Get Shaky mastermind Ian Carey, Pete tongs latest fave partystarter Wolfgang Gartner, and of course the mind-blowing Silent Disco, youll now see them at Future Music Festival 2009.

N*E*R*D [Star Trak, Virgina Beach, USA]
Are all the girls standing in the line to see Pharrell? Any N*E*R*D fan will know that a live show is all about the interaction with the audience. So ladies get ready to be serenaded by Pharrell Williams; Dressed in Billionaire Boys Club and Ice Cream sneakers he might even have you up on stage?
This show will be electric, with dancing the main agenda get ready for heavy guitars, big drums and lots of beats as the N*E*R*D bounces into Australia. With their digital musical palette and vivid imaginations, Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo have taken their hip-hop foundation and un-tethered the bounds of pop, bestowing unsuspecting hit records in almost machine-gun-like succession - whether in rap (Jay-Z, Busta Rhymes, et al), R&B (Usher, Babyface), pop (Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake) or rock (No Doubt). But N.E.R.D is not the Neptunes. N.E.R.D is a fly-or-die, thrash-around, do-as-you-will, set-your-soul-on-fire alter-ego that subscribes to no rules, and adheres to no agenda. It is Pharrell, Chad and Shay: a trio whose chemistry allows the uninhibited exploration of the sounds, emotions and impulses of self, society, identity and belonging.

Really Long Link
CSS Sub Pop Records, Sao Paulo, Brazil
Bursting out of Sao Paulo in 2003, CSS are a group of friends with an unquenchable thirst for good times and indulgence in all things pop and art. Dropping in 2006, their debut album Cansei de Ser Sexy served up danceable electro/rock songs littered with pop culture and sexual references. Easily translating from online environs to live audiences, they quickly became one of the most in-demand live acts from Europe to Japan. Equal parts dance party, urban circus, and complete chaos, the band's unaffected, unbridled joy when performing is their trademark! A tough, street-ready recreation of the frenetic energy of their live shows, their latest album Donkey is summer's ultimate ride, so get on it!

Richie Hawtin Berlin, Germany, Minus 8
Artist, DJ, conceptualist and ambassador, more than anyone else in modern electronic music, Richie Hawtin has relentlessly proved himself to be a true innovator. The one-man mogul behind acclaimed Techno imprints Plus 8 & Minus sends signals out all over the world from his HQ in an old fire station in Windsor, Ontario - just across the border from Detroit Techno City. The signals are constantly evolving; his Plastikman persona gave Techno a unique face with a series of four ruthlessly minimal albums of skeletal beauty, while breathtaking festival live sets at Glastonbury and Tribal Gathering helped invent stadium Techno. His Decks, EFX & 909 album released on novamute in 1999 expanded the concept of a DJ mix album beyond the imagination of most DJs. Now after waiting a long 4 years the people of Australia are eagerly awaiting the return of the man they call Hawtin. Always surprising, innovating and jaw dropping this techno king pushes the boundaries of modern electronic music. Techno & Minimal fans of Australia unite; Richie Hawtin is coming to town.
