Tim Hecker & The Konoyo Ensemble
Being one of the well-deserved modern embossant embossed, Tim Heker, in fact, the year after year writes the same piercing and noisy album, which vaconicrates vacernally changes, respectively, the last genre trends and the spirit of the times. Over the year, Heker released two of the “Konoyo” and “Anoyo” album at once, on which he fantasizes on the theme of Japanese classical music Gagaku - just to match the current Renaissance of Japanese. Heker will come to Moscow not one, but with The Konoyo Ensemble - a Japanese team, with which these releases were recorded, so the maximum immersion in the material can be guaranteed.

Jens Lekman
Jens Lekman, a Swedish star of a sentimental and colorful indie, first comes to Russia with a large club concert. Actually preferential tickets because of this-only 500 rubles (and the Mando Diao group as a bonus for all caring). Lekman partially disappeared from the radar in the last couple of years, but, as before, composes inventive songs with simple texts about love, parting and everyday life that he sings under an acoustic guitar, keyboards and a string of samlov. Judging by the setlists , Lekman also plays the main hits from his best album of the ten-year-old “Night Falls Over Kortedala”, and new, underestimated songs-in general, the perfect moment to catch the iconic artist into an atypical career moment.

The Chemical Brothers
One of the main electronic groups in history, The Chemical Brothers British were one of those who in the 90s very much helped dance electronics to get out of underground to the mainstream and become another completely commercial genre. The burden is heavy, but The Chemical Brothers carry it with dignity: few of the groups of that generation make such comprehensive stadium shows , and very few people manage to record the same vigorous new tracks: the critics who came out in this April with almost the same warmth as the former classic albums.

Interpol
The farther from us the beginning of the zero, the more the Interpol group begins to resemble a dad Rock-groups of the 70-80s, which for some reason continue to record new albums, while everyone wants to hear old hits. Last year’s “Marauuder” once again confirmed that the group does not change at all and is unlikely to record something really relevant again, while the concert in Moscow will probably confirm that the songs of “Turn over bright Lights” have not grown at all and still devote half of the modern Indie.

Dave Harrington Group
Dave Harrington in wide circles is most known as the associate of Nicholas Jaar, with which they made a rather popular Darkside electronic project six years ago. The duet, unfortunately, did not live for a long time - Darkside took a break, and Harrington remembered his jazz past and hit the experiments. His last year’s album “Pure Imagination, No Country” sounds a hundred times more chaotic and improvisational than any track of Harrington and Jaar, but in spirit, everyone who in 2013 drove the Darkside debut on the repeat.

Cigarettes after Sex
Cigarettes After Sex quickly went from one-day sensation, whose songs gained popularity thanks to the YouTube algorithms, to new unexpected heroes of a sad indie, which play at every second large European festival. Being essentially a group of Red House Painters for those who are less than twenty, Cigarettes after Sex make music as vast and banal as their name. It would seem that dreary guitar songs with a sighing vocal will not see anyone, but not - the niche is not empty.

Glassjaw
The Americans Glassjaw are a terribly influential, but terribly inconsistent group. For almost 30 years, this post-Khardkor-college released only three albums, about a dozen musicians played in their composition, and disappeared from the radars and reappeared in sight more often than this or that squeal in the rock was dying or revived. Given such a long history and cult status, their concert can collect the most different audience. Glassjaw's debut, “EVERYTHING YOU EVER WANTED to KNOW ABOUT ABOUT ABOUT ABOUT” 2000, at different times, was mandatory in the players of Nu-Metal fans, adherents of emo and fans of experimental heavy music. Another thing is that in 2019 there is a chance that these are all the same people.

Plaid
The British duo of Plaid has been at the origins of IDM since the beginning of the 90s, published (and are still published) on WARP label and are to some extent in one row along with Aphex Twin, Autechre, Boars of Canada and other honored heroes of the genre. True, Plaid did not even closely get close to the critical and commercial success of their associates over the years, continuing to record new albums almost without interruption and still remain in the shadows. However, domestic fans of the genre and duet should not complain - when you still see such a cult team in such a compact platform as “16 tons”.

Moon and Pompeya
“The Moon over Pompey” is an ideal name for such a concert, but the organizers obviously did not think of that. If the Pompeya group in Moscow in 2019 will not surprise anyone, then the moon is not yet so frequent guest that everyone is completely boring. Especially considering that now it is at the peak of the form-at last year’s “enchanted dreams” of a Meshin from Lana Del Rey and the Russian pop music of the 80s and 90s, it has finally began to sound like her own vision, with a feeling and character. The joint performance of these almost completely opposite musicians will take place on the embankment of Red October - given the time of sunset at the end of June, it is very unlikely that the moon will really perform in the light of the moon, well, okay.
