LAIBACH & JUNO REACTOR
DOUBLE HEADLINE EUROPEAN TOUR 2009
Laibach and Juno Reactor first met in 1994 at the legendary 429 Harrow Road, London, where the Mute Records label was based until very recently. Juno Reactor, then recording for Nova Mute, accepted the invitation by Laibach to remix a version of Final Countdown for their single. Two years later, Laibach included on their album Jesus Christ Superstars their own remake of Juno Reactor's track God is God, the original version of which appeared on the JR Bible of Dreams album in 1997.
The paths of both groups have intersected briefly at several occasions, and a while ago Laibach invited Ben Watkins, the driving force behind Juno Reactor, first to participate as a producer in the studio version of their 2009 ‘electro – symphonic – experimental jazz ’ project Volkswagner and then as a collaborator to the ambitious film project Iron Sky being developed by the creators of the Star Wreck film (the most popular internet film project of all times) who have selected Laibach as the music score for the new film. Iron Sky is to be completed in the beginning of 2011.
Soon the idea of doing a joint European tour was born. Premiere concert happened on September 18th in Slovenian capital Ljubljana at the occasion of the opening of the new Ljubljana cultural venue – Kino Siska. The rest of the tour will start on December 5th and will take both groups through the Netherlands, France, Germany, Czech Republic, Poland, Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia, Hungary, Belgium and UK. Second part of the tour is scheduled for February and March 2010.
Juno Reactor
Juno Reactor are a musical and performing act that was initially conceived as an art project by the British artist Ben Watkins. Having hoped to discover new possibilities of expression within the technology of the time, he began collaborating with various artists from the spheres of music, film and fine art. Juno Reactor have been performing under the name since 1990, and towards the turn of the century they became a major player on the developing electronic music scene oriented towards experimental trance and high energy music.
Juno Reactor strongly influenced groups like Prodigy and Chemical Brothers. Later they kept changing their mode of expression and made some fruitful attempts in film music, the highlight being an instrumental remix of Control for the soundtrack of the film Mortal Kombat and compositions for parts two and three of the Matrix film trilogy (with exceptional song Navras). Juno’s music has been used and adapted by many filmmakers over the years (including Tarantino himself) in cult movies such as Eraser, Virtuosity, Lost In Space, the Romeo & Juliet trailer, Once Upon a Time in Mexico, Beowulf, The Animatrix, etc, etc.
Their live concert show looks like Mad Max versus Blade Runner versus Matrix. Apart from older tracks, Juno Reactor will present on the tour their latest record Gods and Monsters (Metropolis Records). They will also be joined on stage by percussionists from South Africa and diverse musicians from around the world including Japanese guitar star Sugizo (Yasuhiro Sugihara).

Laibach
The only internationally well known Slovenian band, formed in 1980 in the industrial mining town of Trbovlje (members are Eber, Saliger, Dachauer and Keller). In 1984 the group formed NSK (Neue Slowenische Kunst 1984 – 1992), a non-formal organisation and aesthetic movement, thus heavily marking the artistic creativity of the 1980's and early 1990's in Slovenia as well as former Yugoslavia and wider. Laibach are also highly influential within general cultural-political scene and are a true ambassadors and one of the best-known Slovenian brands of all times. They have performed in more than 800 concerts around the world and released 20 albums up to date, with their album Opus Dei released by the renowned British music label Mute Records appearing in the famous selection of most important music albums in the world of all times (1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die, Cassell Illustrated, 2005). Books were written and feature films were made about Laibach and Laibach’s music was also used in films (Spiderman, Blair Witch Project), TV series (Alias) and diverse theatre productions.
The group is working on variety of different projects, from electronica (LAIBACHKUNSTDERFUGE) to experimental – industrial jazz (VOLKSWAGNER), currently preparing new record(s) to be released in 2010.
At the coming tour and in the light of their next year’s 30th anniversary Laibach will present new versions of some of their older tracks from the first half of 1980's, like notorious Drzava (The State), Brat moj (Brother of Mine), Mi kujemo bodocnost (We Are Forging The Future) as well as a selection of the material from their later albums. |
