HARDCORE SYNERGY 2011 ANNOUNCED – LINEUP!

Eddie — Wed, 30 Mar 2011 08:00:55 +0000

We’re a bit late with the announcements this year due to so much going on on our end, but we’re officially announcing HARDCORE SYNERGY 2011 at Anime Central in Rosemont, IL! Starting Friday May 20, 2011 @ 9:00pm in the Hyatt Regency O’Hare Ballroom (same location as last year), we’re throwing the party in a bit of a different direction than the previous few years. In an effort to promote the best talent in the Japanese Hardcore and Underground Electronic Music scene we’re bringing out DJs spanning several genres and labels, many of which are new to the HARDCORE SYNERGY family.

HARDCORE SYNERGY 2010 is just over a week away! We’re making all of our last minute preparations and getting ready for some final announcements before the convention itself. This year we’re doing something a little different, in that we’re going to give everyone a heads up for the planned timetable for the party. Keep in mind that this is based on us starting PROMPTLY at 9:00pm. If there are delays in setup or we open doors a little earlier than planned this will change slightly.

[09:40-10:20] NO+CHIN
[10:20-11:00] M-Project
[11:00-11:40] DJ SHIMAMURA

These times are not 100% set in stone but are what is planned for the party. If there are any changes we will be sure to notify everyone before the party itself. Please plan accordingly!

*UPDATE 5/4/2010* We’ve changed the schedule slightly to give everyone a slightly better timeslot and then try out something that could end up being very cool at the end of the show (think of it as like a special group encore). If there are any other changes we’ll keep you posted!
