  • Aphex Twin is set to make a rare Spanish performance at next month's L.E.V. Festival. The last time that Richard D. James played in the country was at 2003's Sonar festival, so there's no doubt that his set is going to be one of the most anticipated moments at L.E.V, which takes place over the course of May 1-2 in the city of Gijon. A diverse array of artists will join James on the bill, with live performances scheduled for instrumental hip-hopper Daedelus, melodic broken beatsmith Kelpe, and Alva Noto and Byetone from the Raster-Noton stable. Isolee and Nathan Fake will also be showcasing what they've been getting up to in the studio over the past couple of years, whilst Modeselektor and Apparat will get to the heart of what the festival is all about with a full audio/visual Moderat show, with the help of Modeselektor's long-term collaborators Pfadfinderei. The performances will be spread across five different venues in the city, so make sure to check the official L.E.V. website for further listing details.
