TDK Festival coming soon TDK CROSS CENTRAL 2006 AUGUST BANK HOLIDAY WEEKEND 2006 SATURDAY 26TH & SUNDAY 27TH AUGUST KING'S CROSS FREIGHT DEPOT, YORK WAY, LONDON, N1 www.tdkcrosscentral.co.uk / www.myspace.com/crosscentral Renowned for being eclectic, forward thinking and truly inspirational, TDK Cross Central returns with more gumption and guts than any other event in the music calendar. Over the last two years TDK Cross Central has earned an unbeatable reputation for breaking new bands and playing host to an abundance of musical legends. It’s the only event with a ridiculously-acute knowledge of the DJs and bands making waves right now; and this year will be no different. The event offers more than just big names and big tents; it offers quality from tomorrow’s talent and yesterday’s heroes. Another two days of cutting edge artists and underground club legends await you in the heart of London. TDK continues to produce line-ups that inspire a new generation of music lovers while also exciting current devotees of electronic and guitar-led music. With King’s Cross subject to a massive cultural redevelopment right-now the event is more poignant than ever before and the backdrop of urban regeneration never more fitting than now. On Saturday; 5 piece dirty electronic band Hot Chip will be taking to the XFM stage with their unique yet amusing experimental sounds, the band have recently been nominated for the prestigious Mercury music award in UK alternative pop. Diagnostic Ladytron will also be performing tracks from their new album ‘Witching Hour’ quoted as their best album yet, expect starched, synth-pop from the Liverpool based band who never disappoint. Also topping the bill Nightmares on Wax Sound system, Cut Chemist will be performing live and the list goes on. Sunday; leader of the pack in dance music Sasha will be mixing his spectrum of electronic sounds, breaks and deep house. Circo Loco the best party in Ibiza will also be providing the most advanced sounds around in club land at present. Secretsundaze as always indulges their clear-cut Sunday experience. The out spoken voice of electronic house music Moodymann will be spinning at the Key. TDK will also be upping the production stakes to ensure Goods Yard is transformed from all sides. We can confirm that the much-loved terrace will be back and not only for the VIPs. With a large-scale extension planned, Cross Central will be opening the entire length of the terrace for all festival-goers to enjoy. For the first time, pumped out across the entire roof terrace creating a magical midsummer roof top experience. Additional palm trees, bars and seating will adorn the plush outside space so you can sup on a cocktail and watch the sun set over one of the most impressive urban spaces in London. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- TDK Cross Central Line Up 2006 SATURDAY 26TH AUGUST 2006 | 5PM - 5AM Hot Chip (Live) / Ladytron (Live) / Nightmares on Wax Soundsystem / Cut Chemist (Live) / Money Mark (Live) / Bloc Party (Dj Set) / Spank Rock (Live) / Alex Smoke (Live) / Simian Mobile Disco AME / Andrew Weatherall / Ata (Playhouse) / ATrak / Audiofly / Danny Clarke / Ellen Allien (Bpitch) / Ewan Pearson / Filthy Dukes / Four Tet (aka Kieran Hebden) / Gang Gang Dance (Live) / Geddes / Grime Allstars (Feat: DJ Cameo, Skepta and JME) / Gucci Soundsystem (Ben Fat Trucker, Riton & Crispin Dior) / Headman / Hector (Phonica) / Ivan Smagghe / Jack Penate (Solo, Live) / Jammer & Neckle Camp / Joakim (Kill The Dj) / King Creosote (Live) / Kurrage / Lex Records Djs / Nathan Gregory Wilkins / Optimo / Padded Cell / People Are Germs Djs / Ruff Sqwad / Sasse / Serge Santiago / Shychild (Live) / Sinbad / Statik & Drew (Babyshambles) / The Bug (Live) / The Eighteenth Day of May (Live) / Young Blood Brass Band (Live) / Young Turks.
