Rockfeedback TV documents MELT! Festival on Channel 4 Fri night (23/10), 1.15 am
By: Thomas Hannan
As if to provide conclusive proof that tonight's passing of the Basement Club does not herald the end for Rockfeedback, but rather a spectacular new dawn, they day after Ed Harcourt headlines at the sixth anniversary - and final - of our legendary club night we will begin broadcasting the latest tasty episode of our televisual spectacular, Rockfeedback Presents... on Channel 4, Friday 24th November at 1.05am (you know the drill - technically Sat morning).
This time, the show is coming to you from the post industrial wasteland of Ferropolis, near Berlin, an old coal mining field as intimidating as it is weirdly beautiful. But alas, we've not gone all Time Team on your collective ass - these crazy Germans use said setting as the backdrop for the MELT! Festival, perhaps the best convergence of cutting edge indie rock and mind, well, melting electronica that takes place in Europe all year.
Expect to be dazzled by the likes of Skream!, Does It Offend You, Yeah? and a whole host of bands devoid of any punctuation in their names whatsoever, such as Editors and a killer of a set from Boys Noize.
