Freqs of Nature Festival has announced its plans for the 2017 edition.

The six-day summer event, located one hour from Berlin, is “”committed to encouraging artists of all mediums to explore the depths of their imagination, to boldly produce work that is beautiful, peculiar and thought-provoking.” The festival invests heavily in projects that go beyond the musical lineup, with multiple galleries, installations, modular soldering workshops, landscaping, and organic decorations combined with scientific experiments and skilled engineering. The aim is to create an environment of peculiar content that “is yet to be seen” in the realm of electronic music by blending a celebration of psychedelic trance influences with collected artistries and craftsmanships from within Berlin’s urban art scene.

As for the musical program, organizers book artists based purely on their love for quality electronic music. They are, they say, ” looking for artists doing beautiful and unique music that fills the heart with joy, lets the body move in unusual ways or entertain the brain in its full capacity.”

This year’s opening concert will host a whole evening with bands celebrating the fusion of acoustic and electronic music, with the headliner group Mark Ernestus‘ Ndagga Rhythm Force.

The ‘RelaXperimental Floor’ is the IDM/Electronica/Experimental-Ambient stage. This year it will host the likes of Shackelton, Pole (Stefan Betke), and the danish IDM legends Rumpistol, Karsten Pflum, and Sofus Forsberg, as well as experimental sets of the techno headliners Rrose, Kangding Ray, Tobias Freund, Marco Shuttle, Polar Inertia, and Takaaki Itoh—all of whom will also play experimental sets on the ‘Kreuz&Quer Floor.

The above-mentioned artists are joined by Konstantin and Ateq of Giegling, Matrixxman, Mike Parker, Dadub and Luigi Tozzi.House DJs The Mole and Berlin’s very own Barbara Preisinger will also perform.

On the ‘Groove Floor’ stage, Acid Pauli and Sebastian Mullaert (previously of Minilogue) will be joined by Fabio Florido, Carlo Ruetz, and Malbetrieb as well as countless other performers.

With the ‘Forest Floor,’ the festival is showing its xtreme side by hosting the best from the drum & bass and breakcore/ crossbreed scene: Current Value, Cause4Concern, L33, Telekinesis, Ruby My Dear, Machine Code, Cooh, Stazma the the Jungelchrist and The Sect are joined by many others of the hard-breakbeat world and the leaders of forest, dark and hitech psychedelic trance.

The ‘Dub Floor’ will evolve into the ‘Bass Playground,’ where underground bass music will “meet a playground for adults,” with a lineup yet to be announced.

More names and two more floors will be announced soon. In the meantime, further information—including a stage breakdown and tickets—can be found here, with the current lineup below.
