Mysterious red Tommern
Unfortunately, lug00ber has had to cancel his performance at Black Valley this Saturday. We wish him all the best and a speedy recovery. Luckily, we have a great replacement right in our midst - Tommern, half of Modulo One, that wowed the crowds with a live performance for the ages here last year!

Due to circumstances beyond their control, Paula has had to cancel their full band performance on short notice. Fortunately, Slumgud has agreed to spin some tunes in their place, and hopefully, we can try again at a later date for the full band experience!

Retro Demoshow to set the mood on Saturday!

lug00ber playing tunes at Black Valley 2024
We were told in no uncertain terms that lug00ber was playing, as is tradition. Mildly intimidated, we could do nothing but bow our heads and comply. All hail lug00ber, breaker of beats.

We repeatedly told Henning and Hans, "det holder!" but they just won't listen. π So, by unpopular demand β expect silly kicks, stupid samples, pointless breaks, and preposterous mixing. If you are not convinced yet, listen to tiny.cc/yyon001 Henning & Hans spiller opp til dans!

ONE DAY LEFT... NO SHIRT? NO PROTECTION!
Just one day left of the earlybird price, so if you want to be part of the zombie resistance, but at a discount - don't wait!
Price goes up from 500 to 800, so there's quite a savings.
