  • Kraftwerk are heading up the 2013 lineup for Flow Festival, which runs August 7th through 11th in Helsinki. Now in its tenth year, Flow Festival brings stylistically varied lineups to Suvilahti, the historic site of a former energy production complex that's now an arts and culture centre. The promoters bill it as the largest music and arts festival in Finland. The festival's headliners will be doing something extra-special this year: the techno originators are performing a version of their 3D retrospective concert, which has played to sold-out crowds at London's Tate Modern and the Museum of Modern Art in New York. The rest of the lineup sees Swedish duo The Knife will headline an opening concert on August 7th, while Disclosure, AlunaGeorge, Maya Jane Coles and Tensnake are among the DJs booked for the main portion of the festival this year. Performances from rappers Mykki Blanco and Azealia Banks, Blawan & Pariah's Karenn project, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds and locals Sarah Kivi & Non Orchestra will also feature.
