Fortunately the announcement came out and the seventh Synch Festival is in fact on June 4 and 5. For Hot Chip we said here . For several of the others you have read in LaGaSta.
The Synch Festival for another year has carefully made line-up, without impressive names. Certainly, the Hot Chip is not a small name, like A place to bury strangers, Peaches , Beak> (Geoff Barrow of Portishead) , Fuck Buttons
etc.
Especially good impression we get from the low priced tickets and special offers for unemployed of Employment Service. Economic crisis you see ...

4 & 5 JUNE
« Technopolis "City of Athens
(Piraeus 100, Gasi)
The Synch , for the seventh consecutive year, boasts a musical pluralism, and welcomes in Technopolis of Athens, on Friday, the 4th and Saturday, June 5 a series of internationally acclaimed artists of the world music stage, many of whom first visit Greece, but also new, fresh names in the 21st century who already leave their own mark on the artistic scene. From the musical dialogue of Synch could not be missing some of the most energetic and talented Greek artists, whose job is constantly raising the bar in domestic production putting Greece on the world music map.
The main stage of Technopolis is to be conquered by the Parisian guru of electronic stage, Laurent Garnier, who appears for the first time live in Greece with the multimember band! (...)
On the same stage, the Hot Chip, the most hot electro pop figure in recent years, which literally conquered both the radio and our hearts with their new album "One Life Stand", come let us shake with pop melodies and dance rhythms of 80's to follow electro -punk priestess, Peaches-a female Iggy Pop as many call it-with the spectacular costumes, the eccentric style, provocative lyrics and certainly the most explosive Greek performance on stage!
With a more indie mood and dreamy, sometimes radiohead-sounded melodies, the Synch is welcoming Get Well Soon (the project of German musician Konstantin Gropper) already climbed up international charts and tie the audience with their live performances. In a similar dream motif, sequence, and the dark folk melodies of Matt Elliott-known to most "electronic" as Third Eye Foundation -, while the onset of Beak> , a brand new side project of Geoff Barrow of Portishead , a patchwork of krautrock, drone and jazz or otherwise, the sound of the 21st century that will not leave anyone indifferent ...
The same applies to explosive performances of both the British Fuck Buttons and the hype they have created around the electronic post-rock compositions, and the New Yorker A Place to Burry Strangers with a la Jesus And Mary Chain guitars that leave nothing standing in their way!
And the surprises continue in Synch! The same scene will share international caliber artists from different musical worlds, such as Tony Allen, the Nigerian drummer of Fela Kuti and representative of the afro beat with the expert of nu jazz Jimi Tenor, while on another stage industrial aesthetic Blixa Bargeld (frontman of Einsturzende Neubauten and for many years guitarist of the Bad Seeds Nick Cave) be entangled with digital minimalist electronica of Alva Noto.
From the line up of Synch could not be absent the dance element with the imposing presence of DJ Krush (Mo 'Wax Records), the Japanese pioneer of hip hop scene who combines with atmospheric way samples, the hip hop and soul going several steps beyond what some call the "trip hop" and of course, the French electro scene, with the "ingenious» Busy P, which apart from (former) manager of Daft Punk, dj and producer, he is the founder of Ed Banger a company that popularized the nu electro sound worldwide.
