  • Decibel has announced the first wave of acts to play at this year's event. The festival, which celebrates its 10th edition in 2013, will take place at various venues across Seattle from September 25th through 29th. As usual, proceedings will be divided into a series of live club shows, seated performances, conferences, afterhours events and boat parties. This year's lineup sees former New Order man Peter Hook (who will play a live show called Power, Corruption & Lies and Movement) and veteran electronic act The Orb billed to play. Techno heavy hitters Ben Klock and Speedy J will both DJ, as will house artists like Kyle Hall, Âme, Cajmere, Mosca, Dusky, KiNK, PillowTalk and John Tejada. Machinedrum, Archie Pelago, and former Breaking Through subject Ryan Hemsworth add a diverse element to the bill, while Ghostly International affiliates Beacon, Shigeto, ADULT. and Dauwd will also perform. Further names—including additional headliners—will be added in the coming weeks and months. To get an idea of what Decibel is all about, check out our review of last year's festival.
