One year ago our concert agency presented for the
wide audience its “child” – “May Thunder Festival 2004” which became a
good chance for the Russian public to see such the acts of the world
synth/ebm/gothic scene as Strict Confidence, Diorama, Beborn Beton
along with the line of Russian bands including the leaders of the
scene here Technologia and Arrival.
