The 7th annual Decibel International Festival of Electronic Music, Visual Art and New Media kicks off next week in Seattle with an impressive 180 artists performing over 5 days.

I'll be heading down on behalf of CBC Radio 3 next weekend to report on a number of events, so stay tuned for more festival coverage.

Decibel Festival is a non-profit, five-day annual music and arts festival held in Seattle, WA. Founded in 2003, the festival bridges the gap between technology and creativity through visual art, workshops, panel discussions and cutting-edge electronic music performances.

Since its inception, Decibel has hosted over 400 acts ranging from underground dance and experimental electronic music to transmedial art.

Over the past 7 years, Decibel has featured a number of Canadian atists, including Megasoid, Noah Pred, Gunshae, Mat The Alien, Deadmau5, Mike Shannon, Frivolous, Lowfish, Deadbeat, Tim Hecker, Loscil, Akufen, Careen Ajar, Shen, Overcast Sound, and Taal Mala.

If this is the first time you've heard of this festival, I've collected a few links to help get you started.
