MOUSE ON MARS (22:30-0:00) :
Mouse on Mars is one of the few electronic bands to stand the test of time. Constantly reinventing themselves, they have taken electronica to new heights with a unique blend of sound annihilation, fragmented melodies and an impassioned hatred of conformity. For nearly two decades, Andi Toma and Jan St. Werner have sweated over burning consoles to create a new musical language, only to twist it again into thousands of myriad distortions. In 2014 the sound terrorists release their first ’digital only’ EP ’Spezmodia’. Five Happy Hardcore inspired, Gabba reminding club tracks aim to push both listeners and dancers their limits and reflect what you experience at a Mouse on Mars’ live show: an extremly high energy level, no time to breath and breaks and twists close to an epileptic collapse.

CLEVELAND (21:45-22:15) :
Cleveland brings a strong element of story-telling to his tracks, often combining long runtimes with a progressive and trippy feel. These qualities are what have caused heavyweights such as John Talabot and Axel Boman to regularly drop tracks from his debut. His sound combines mystical synths, mischievous basslines and drops that roll so effortlessly into one-and-other they're hypnotic.

Initiated by M&R Rockhal, the 24 Heures Lab brings together two artists from two very different musical horizons: Sun Glitters, Luxembourg’s most renowned electronic music producer and Lisa Berg, one of the country’s leading cellists.

E-LODIE (Live Radio show)  (20:00-20:45) :
E-Lodie, your weekly show on radio 100,7 with new, adventurous releases, is exploring the various fields of electronic music. From the darkest sweat-soaked techno-clubs to the studios of the weirdest producers of experimental and cosmic avant-garde, through vibrating fields of synthetic soundscapes and mystic forests of kicks, snares and handclaps. For the 24 Heures Electroniques, your host Yves Stephany has put together a special program with tasty bits of music and some interesting guests.

WEEK OF KINDNESS (Dj set)  (19:00-19:45 & 1:15-2:00)
Being the brainchild of Vincent Clarke, a Luxembourg based musician who made his first steps fronting a dance punk collective, Week of Kindness is an experiment in shock and elegance. Drawing influence from various situations experienced over the last years, this project works as a template for production, essays and DJing. Hired as a resident in a club located downtown, the 28 year old musician likes to explore a fine line between Detroit classics, Italo bangers, leftfield electronica, early DFA edits and obscure disco gems, with the occasional flirt with the more cerebral end of hip hop.
