I'm going to play live at Breakpoint 2008 demoscene party. http://breakpoint.untergrund.net/
Here's the official news of today's released Zine#13, a demoscene diskmag:
It is official. German scene legend and musical extraordinaire Romeo Knight (aka Eike Steffen) will team up with Norwegian electronica artist and scener Xerxes (aka Klaus Lunde) to perform live at Breakpoint 2008. As if that was not enough, they are accompanied by Bendik Hovik Kjeldsberg on drums and percussion. Bendik is now 16 years old and regarded as one of the most promising and spectacular drummers in Norway.
Aside from playing several gigs with Xerxes over the last few years, his jazz band Matto Molto has been playing all the biggest festivals in Norway, including Molde Jazz Festival, Bylarm and Slottsfjellfestivalen. He started playing the drums at the tender age of five and has never since looked back. Expect explosive artistry from Bendik, and perhaps a massive drum solo.
Romeo Knight needs very little introduction to anyone who has ever been involved with the scene. His modules that colored the revolutionary Red Sector demos can only be seen as classics, and his approach to sound and music has only evolved from there. At Breakpoint, you will experience Romeo Knight and his guitar. Bring extra underwear.
Xerxes has played live at Chillout festivals around the world for the last two years. But he never stopped loving and caring for the scene, which is certainly evident in the Chillosophy series he has made for Brainstorm. Expect some familiar and unfamiliar sounds; and some huge surprises.
I was planning to come to breakpoint but unfortunately it all went to hell due to the current situation in my country... I would love to see you live in guitar action! Hope there'll be a video posted here somewhere after the event. Take care and have fun Eike!

Oh, what a pity, would have been great to meet you there!
There will be a live video stream of the whole event I think.
That was an amazing concert to play btw. We had tremendous fun on stage and the sound team did a f*cking great job in making us feeling comfortable on and off the stage! I'm curious to watch it myself.
