Dekmantel has shared the lineup for its flagship Amsterdam festival this summer.
The event will once again encompass a series of opening concerts at venues close to the centre of the city before relocating to the forest area of main festival site Amsterdamse Bos for a further three days. More than 150 artists are lined up to play across the event’s five days, with an opening concert at Amsterdam’s Oude Kerk set to be headlined by Moritz von Oswald, premiering his work Silencio alongside a 16-voice choir.
Jeff Mills will also present a live score of the film Metropolis Metropolis at EYE Filmmuseum, while Richie Hawtin will perform his DEX EFX X0X show, which is inspired by his classic 1999 mix album Decks, EFX & 909.
This year’s festival will host additional live sets from The Orb; British Murder Boys; Mark Ernestus’ Ndagga Rhythm Force; Jlin; Blawan; Leftfield; James Holden & Wacław Zimpel; B12; Ragga Twins; The Sabres Of Paradise; Arsenal Mikebe & Valentina Magaletti; Voices From The Lake; Erika de Casier; and Steffi & Virginia.
Among the DJ highlights are sets from Skee Mask, Kampire, Call Super, upsammy, Yaeji, evilgiane, Honey Dijon, Joe Claussell, Mafalda, LTJ Bukem, Four Tet, CCL and Avalon Emerson. Floating Points is also curating the lineup for the Greenhouse stage, and installing his custom hi-fi Sunflower Sound System for the weekend.
