<h2>Our bash in Bratislava is planned and the theme is alternative hip-hop.</h2><p>As the inaugural date of our <a href="http://www.electronicbeats.net/events/here-are-the-dates-for-electronic-beats-spring-2015-festival/" target="_blank">Spring Festival Season</a> draws ever closer, we’re incrementally unrolling the lineups for the gigs that will hit Warsaw, Bratislava, Prague, and Cologne. Last month, we revealed the indie-pop and house-oriented acts that will perform at the <a href="http://www.electronicbeats.net/events/electronic-beats-warsaw-festival-2015-lineup/" target="_blank">EB Festival in Warsaw</a>, and today we’re unveiling the roster for our Bratislava blowout, which takes place at the Refinery Gallery on March 6 at 20:00.</p><p>This time, the acts all have roots in odd rap. The headlining band, Archive, has traversed the grey area between electronica, trip-hop, and progressive rock since the mid-1990s. The London group’s most recent album, <em>Restriction</em>, hit shelves this week. Check out the title cut below.</p><p><!--

--></p><p>We’ve enlisted American post-rock/alt-hip-hop auteur Son Lux to support Archive. He’s something of a jack-of-all-trades who has made soundtracks for films like <em>Looper</em> and <em>The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby</em>. The former Anticon signee recently locked in a deal with the legendary Glassnote label.</p><p>Lux’s former Anticon labelmates Young Fathers are also on board. The Scottish rappers won the Mercury Prize last year for their last Anticon album, <em>Dead</em>.</p><p>Our <a href="http://www.electronicbeats.net/articles/tmts-takes-over-the-funkhaus-berlins-quirkiest-studios/" target="_blank">TMTS</a> graduate Adi Ulmansky will close out the Bratislava lineup. The Tel Aviv-based up-and-comer fits the bill for our festivals in <a href="http://www.electronicbeats.net/events/electronic-beats-warsaw-festival-2015-lineup/" target="_blank">Warsaw</a> and Bratislava, as she skates the line between indie electro and rap with grace, attitude, and earworm pop hooks—which is why we’ve booked her to perform at both gigs.</p><p>Purchase tickets to the festival in the form below:</p>
