Opening show Stage

Peaches



Peaches is probably most known for the superhit "Rosa Helikopter", and during the opening show for TG12 they will be performing just that, in an unique reunion performance!



The Swedish girl duo consists of Tåve Wanning and Isabelle Erkendal. The girls were only 8 and 11 years old when they first released their first single, "Rosa Helikopter", that sold to gold in Sweden and platinum in Norway. Since the song was released for the first time, it has been very popular in the TG-community, often played for hours during The Gathering. Peaches is looking forward to performing in front of the crowd that is, probably, their most loyal fans.



DJ Miu is doing a two-part spectacular show, one as a stiltrobot, the other as a DJ!

Show: Seymour Bits & C-MEN Stage

The c-men originally started in 1998 as a duo, when Julian van Aalderen met Sjors Trimbachat at the Media Art Department of the AKI art academy in their hometown Enschede. Julian taught Sjors the basics of animation and after having attended a lecture by the dutch vj collective Captain Video, they decided to become Amiga vj’s, using Captain Video’s vj tool MNU, written specially for the commodore amiga computer. In the beginning they mostly did visuals for electro, techno, drum’nbass, noise, acid gigs all over the country, but soon they played gigs abroad in Croatia and South Korea with the art organisation Planetart.



Sjors was also the driving force behind a series of vj battles (first ones ever held in the Netherlands), where (inter)national vj teams would display their skills simultaneously on multiple screens, as well as exhibitions at the Rijksmuseum and lectures by upcoming vj developers (resolume, flow motion etc).



Apart from various residencies in the Netherlands they also got in touch with the people behind micromusic, a webcommunity for chipmusic enthousiasts. This resulted in a lot of gigs in European cities and the US, as well as organizing shows with international chip musicians in the Netherlands.



After 5 years they split up, with Sjors focusing more on his love drawing and becoming a founding figure in the paper toy scene. Meanwhile Julian continued veejaying, founded the c64 orchestra, did a videoclip for Lenny Kravitz, gave vj workshops and lectures in schools and in Moscow, Bergen, Brussels and co-organizing a series of chip music gigs together with Alles Los Agencies.



In 2009 Sjors and Julian reunited for the 10 year C-men anniversary and did a final set as a duo. Julian continues to veejay. For better or worse.
