• N.O.H.A., Ohm Square and DJ Bassline Smith will be the stars of the 'electronic beats club tour' in Prague, Brno and Ostrava throughout May

Prague, 11 April 2007:  The 'electronic beats' festival found its way to the Czech Republic last year, for the first time in history. In October 2006, a number of well-known bands were staged at Veletržní palác, including the legend of the club scene, The Prodigy. And this year will see an entire series of events held under the 'electronic beats' brand name.

The special launch of the whole series, the 'electronic beats tower special' event, will take place on 20 April at the Žižkov TV Tower. After this, the 'electronic beats club tour' will follow, taking place from 24 to 26 May in Prague, Brno and Ostrava, presenting N.O.H.A., Ohm Square, DJ Bassline Smith and others. The 'electronic beats' festival will be held in Veletržní palác this autumn. The whole 'electronic beats' project will be broadcast on the Óčko TV channel throughout the whole year. The same channel will also present several video recordings made during last year's 'electronic beats' festivals around Europe.

This year's series will be launched on 20 April at 8 p.m. with the 'electronic beats tower special' at the Žižkov TV Tower. The program will include the electronic performance MIDI LIDI, DJ Ladida and DJ Stephunk T. An afterparty to this event will take place at the nearby Palác Akropolis from 10:30 p.m., with DJs Josef Sedloň, Stephunk T. and Jan2 taking the stage.

The 'electronic beats tower special' event will have only a limited attendance due to capacity reasons - only the first 100 persons interested will be able to get tickets.
