Reaching its 88th instalment, the Velak Gala might have arrived at an impressive age, but still refuses to display even the slightest geriatric touch. Still enthusiastic about electronic sounds of any experimental or abstract shape, Velak once again presents auditive specialties and electroacoustic points of view. Four acts are invited to unwrap their devices and play music from realms somewhere between analogue circuits and graphic programming surfaces on four channels.
