We’re doing our usual Hacktory Happy Hour event a little different this time. Wear your warm coats, because we’re setting up outdoors for some live electronic music in the parking lot of NTR for a Happy Hour Concert on Thursday, October 6th from 5-7pm. Come enjoy some tasty beverages in crisp autumn air along with live Electronic Music performances from:
Lalilulelo 
Tleilaxu 
Check out Tleilaxu’s latest album bornagain as a free download from UnfoundSound Records. Wrapping up our show is our headlining acts, all the way from Europe on their first U.S. tour…
Toktek (Tom Verbruggen) & 
Simon Berz 
toktek (Holland) and Simon Berz (Switzerland) battle it out in supercharged music session. Playing their self-made electronic instruments/interfaces, they turn pure human emotion and body language into sound that results in a spasmic, sweaty conversation between toktek, Simon and their machines.
After touring in Europe − performing in Zurich, Switzerland, at the STIEM center in Amsterdam, Holland and many other places − they have come to the United States to kick off in New York before finishing off their tour in New Orleans.
This is a Free, All Ages Event!
Location
NTR Parking Lot 1524 Brandywine Street, Philadelphia PA 19130
Swing by right after work on Thursday, October 6th as the music starts promptly at 5pm!
$10 donation (with valid I.D.) gets you tasty beverages and soft drinks.
Check out all the artists web sites for videos of their cool performance styles and eclectic sound, and expect quite a show on Thursday, October 6th!
