    Melt

    I went to the Melt festival - a music festival about 2 hours south of
    Berlin close to the Bauhaus city Dessau.
    I have never really been to a festival of that size and I was a bit
    scared but I have to admit that I kind of liked it.
    It never really seemed too crowded due to the 4 different stages the
    people could go to.
    The Melt festival is situated in the middle of an outdoor museum
    about coal mining, cramped in between 6 or so monsterous machines.
    The area is called "Ferropolis - Stadt aus Eisen" (Ferropolis - city
    of steal) - a fantastic place to host a festival and highly
    recommendable for a day trip.

    I was there to film BODi BiLL.
    BODi BiLL is a great, hot and upcoming band from Berlin who played a
    superb show at the Melt.
    They had a really good slot: friday 10.15PM - with the sun already
    down and the machines illuminated by super strong and colorful light
    beams, with the Klaxons who had just warmed up the crowd on the big
    stage and the tiny bit of rain who finally decided to stop and rest
    for a few hours. Although the smaller stage is not compareable to the
    main stage in size and sound a few hundred people came to see BODi
    BiLL to dance the whole set through.

    Thanks again for such a great night and you people outthere watch out
    for a new BODi BiLL video coming out later this year including
    amazing footage from their show at the Melt.
