17 July, state51 factory, 12pm-2am
The London Headphones Festival returns ... 14 hours of headphones-only
performances from the cream of UK underground electronica and beyond.
Last year over 500 people packed into the state51 factory space to
experience a day of headphonics. Think of a festival in reverse. Forget
about background chatter: for once, it's a chance for some focused
listening. All performances are heard only through headphones, artists play
20 minute sets and the whole thing is streamed to listening rooms around the
world.

Janek Schaefer and Leafcutter John, alongside Main, David Toop & Max
Eastley, dDamage, Hot Chip, Holkham, Antenna Farm, Noun, John Chantler, Adem
