✝✝✝✝
2012 celebrates the 10th edition of Unsound Krakow in October, mysteriously assembled around the theme "THE END". Does "THE END" refer to 2012's apocalyptic atmosphere and potential rebirth, or something more prosaic? At least for now, we're not going to say, preferring to leave things more oblique than usual.
To mark our 10th birthday, we'll bring back some of our favorite artists who have played over the years, many presenting special projects on a large scale. There will also be compelling world debuts, label showcases and other delights shaped by innovative and extreme programming that has become Unsound's trademark for both its Krakow and New York events. To highlight the importance of New York in the development of Unsound over the past few years, you can also expect a spotlight on artists from the U.S.
