Distortion in Denmark
Posted by: Viva Jossh 6/2/2009 10:30:00 AM


Do you like submarines? Do you like electronic music? Do you like Copenhagen? Then goddamn, the Distortion Festival is right up your alleyhole. Taking place between June 6th-8th, the stages range from clubs in the heart of the city to a shawarma shack to the largest man-made submarine on Earth, the Søsætning UC3 Nautilus.

If you thought that SXSW was cool, well imagine if sprawling, scorching Austin was actually an elegantly dense metropolis that houses a society whose values are underpinned by a cynicism that somehow comfortably juxtaposes wholesomeness with decadence. These guys are putting the dust in "industry showcase" as in there practically ain't a single trace of conglom involved. Now why exactly would be covering this festival, aside from the fact that is completely sassy and radical? Well, simple answer to a simpleton question: we're getting in on some of the action with a little Viva party of our own!

No joke, the organizers came to us and litraly handpicked two of our most plump and fresh contributors, the sweet Louise Paradis and Michael "CFCF" Silver, to throw down during the Viva Radio block. Said block gets the benefit of happening live on the sub-massive submarine, underneath a bridge apparently. The whole arrangement of the festival seems pretty nuts, but chaos breeds chaos and with a name like distortion, I think that some serious anti-clarity is at hand in a fun way.
