If you prefer your beats to ricochet inside your head like a ping-pong ball, then it's high time to schedule a visit with Funkstorung. The German duo (Michael Fakesch and Chris De Luca), famous for a shady series of singles on the Musik Aus Strom label plus two well-received albums for !K7, are back on the touring trail with even more crunchy, fractured rhythms, deconstructed (or reconstructed, depending on how you look at it) from the very finest hip hop beats. Even if Funkstorung's sputtering, intricately produced audio mayhem isn't for everyone, where else are you going to try out your new awkwardly angular dance steps? Immerse yourself in the cacophony.

Note: Machine Drum, Eight Frozen Modules, and Sote open.
