Zwaremachine(USA) :
Zwaremachine embodies the provocative sights and sounds of second wave industrial music with a clear focus on classic sounds and modern production.
Zwaremachine hails from Minneapolis, MN. USA and merges industrial, dark electro and ebm music with a nod to bands like Skinny Puppy, FLA, Ministry and Front 242. Zwaremachine presents a threatening vision of the future with a combination of menacing vocals, danceable beats, driving bass guitar and electronics. Thoroughly deranged, Zwaremachine will trash your sense of disbelief a minute into the first song and continue to do so all the way through.
The core of the band is founding member Mach Fox on vocals and Dbot on bass guitar, and with the recent addition of Dutch musicians Paul K(guitar) and Marshal B(electronic drums) the band has embraced an electro-industrial rock sound while still keeping their dark electro and EBM roots.
Vuduvox (FRA/BE/NL)
Vuduvox is a French-Belgian duo active in the electro-industrial and EBM (Electronic Body Music) scene.
The core of Vuduvox consists of J-C (vocals and synthesizers), also known for his work with the group BUZZ (French minimalist electro), and Olivier T. (guitar), who has collaborated with groups such as Signal Aout 42 and GrandChaos1. During this tour, they will be joined by Marshal-B (electro perx) / Sasha Angst (machines).
Their sound is an energetic mix of old school industrial, hypnotic synthesizers, atmospheric guitars and dark, echoing voices. They are inspired by groups such as The Young Gods, Excessive Force and Birmingham 61.
Their first album, ‘Vaudou Électrique’, is praised for its powerful and danceable tracks, perfect for dark dance floors. Tracks such as Silex, Fascination and Disco-Démolition are considered EBM anthems.
Enzo kreft (BE)
Enzo Kreft has been a cult figure in the Belgian minimal electro scene since the early 1980s. His music is both dark and melodic, but always with an emphasis on a clear message. It is a protest against the oppression that everyone experiences on a daily basis as insignificant pawns of politicians, their uniformed thugs and the real bosses of this world, the executives of the big technology companies.
Over the years, he has released many albums, from the cassette “Me is!” in 1983 to the CD “Shelter” in 2023, with the masterpiece “Control” from 2019 as a creative highlight. On 26 April 2025, “Dictator” was released, a concept album about the suffocating life in a dictatorship, the power of propaganda, the threat of censorship and the tragedy of exile, all inevitable consequences of the global growth of authoritarian rule by a small elite. It couldn't be more topical.
