Away from the Gashouder for another spectacular weekend out west, Awakenings Festival 2015 plants the best of techno and harder-edged house in the natural beauty of Spaarnwoude, Netherlands.
The Awakenings powerhouse has been rumbling on for almost two decades, and the 2015 edition will once again boast international favourites alongside up-and-comers, taking stock of another 12 months at the sharp end of European and world techno.
Expect off-the-scale production and even bigger sound, all bundled up into one of the stand-out events in electronic music.
Reading the lineup for Awakenings, the long-running Dutch festival, is a bit like scouring an A-to-Z list of who’s making it happen in techno right now. Of course, you’ve got the big names who dominate events on this scale. But this year the promoters are also bringing a deeper element to their sprawling event at Spaarnwoude. From the old school to the new , from Berghain torchbearers to peddlers of a beat all their own. Awakenings almost certainly has something that’ll scratch your itch.
