David Guetta returns to his favourite festival
PRESS RELEASE
Heineken Balaton Sound presents another group of newly confirmed acts. Amongst them
superstar David Guetta, who almost counts as a resident DJ at the lakeside event and Paul
Kalkbrenner, the best known representative of the Berlin techno scene. You can also meet
Paul’s younger brother, Fritz Kalkbrenner, presenting an exciting live show and Sander van
Doorn, the Dutch king of trance. All this and a lot more awaits fans this summer between 12-15
July at the greatest beach party of Central Europe in Zamárdi, Lake Balaton, Hungary.
Meet the line-up:
There’s no other festival in the world where David Guetta feels more at home like at Heineken
Balaton Sound. No wonder, he already played stunning shows at the event for the last 4 years and
is more than happy to return.
Berlin Calling star Paul Kalkbrenner is never short of creative energies - unlike the character he
plays in the famous movie). He has been already headlining the biggest parties of Germany and
Europe, so it’s high time for him to come and play at the lakeside event.
Sander van Doorn has always dealt with a wide range of electronic styles and already earned
many awards with his powerful trance productions – clearly regarded as anthems of the scene.
You love family reunions? Not really? Just check out how the Kalkbrenners do it at this year’s
Heineken Balaton Sound. You have the chance to listen to the live version of the biggest techno hit
of the last few months, Sky & Sand, thanks to Paul Kalkbrenner and his younger brother. Fritz
Kalkbrenner has always been involved in the German e-music scene and created his own sound, a
style that’s close to his brother’s productions, but mixed with hip-hop, house and even soul
elements.
Another great performer of the Balaton event will be Gareth Emery, a world famous trance DJ and
producer and a regular at the biggest international e-music parties. Also in the line-up Maceo Plex,
the American musician and producer, who nowadays lives in Spain and is mainly experimenting with
deep house elements. You might know his earlier works as well, as he produced tech house and
techno tracks under the names Meatrik and Mariel Ito.
Besides Björk we are happy to host another Icelandic super production at this year’s Sound, namely
Gus Gus, playing a sophisticated and welcoming style of electronic music. And let’s not forget about
Feed Me, a truly entertaining, fresh and eye-catching side project of Jon Gooch, aka Spor,
representing the British drum’n’bass, dubstep and electro house scene.
Nina Kraviz is a remixer, singer-songwriter and a resident DJ of Moscow’s most popular club, the
Propaganda. She is surely used to play for full houses and most probably experience the same this
summer in Zamárdi. Crazy P is another great asset in the line-up, an electronic production, also
using live instruments (drums, guitars) as a key part of the show. They will arrive to Lake Balaton,
presenting their new album, When We On.

Tensnake, aka Marco Niemerski is a true messenger of disco’s rebirth. The Hamburg-based DJproducer
is very popular in the German underground electronic scene, inspired by house, the disco
era and the 80’s electro-funk craze. Last but surely not least, we are pleased to announce Dapayk
Solo, aka Niklas Worgt, representing the Berlin club scene and experimenting with many styles (like
drum’n’bass, house) before arriving to the world of minimal techno in the mid-2000’s. And rightly so,
as Groove magazine awarded his debut album with ‘the best of the year’ title, while Niklas became
the producer of the year.
If you like what you’ve just read, please don’t forget that early bird tickets are only available until 15
April. Of course you can also buy your ticket afterwards, but it surely makes sense the think ahead.
