  • Names have begun trickling in for this year's Decibel Festival, taking place in Seattle from September 26th through the 30th. Based on the names announced so far, this year's addition is likely to have the most diverse (and robust) lineup so far in the festival's nine-year history. Headliners include house and techno artists like Carl Craig, John Talabot, Matthew Dear, Roman Flügel, Nina Kraviz, Dixon and DVS1. A lot of leftfield acts have been confirmed as well, such as Actress, Fennesz, Andy Stott, Cut Hands, Demdike Stare and local artist The Sight Below. Ambient pioneer Biosphere is confirmed, and Robert Henke will perform under his own name and as Monolake. On a more indie tip, there's Not Not Fun artist Maria Minerva and Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti. To get an idea of the approach and philosophy behind Decibel, have a look at our 2011 interview with founder Sean Horton.
