En Orbita Festival: A Place To Bury Strangers Pinball


  • Le Poisson Rouge 158 Bleecker St New York, NY 10012 USA (map)

It’s FINALLY happening: DBAA has been working on a custom pinball machine themed around "the loudest band in New York" : A Place To Bury Strangers.

It will make its debut at En Orbita Festival on July 15th where APTBS is opening for legendary Brazilian psych rockers Os Mutantes.

There will also be a panel discussion by Mark Kleeb, Andy Wallace, and Dustin Long talking about the pinball building process. This has been two years in the making, so you absolutely don't want to miss this one!

Different generations are connected, and we want see them merge

The NYC edition features a special (and literally intergalactic) collaboration with the MIT Media Lab Space Exploration Initiative. There will be panels and exhibits that draw insane parallels between music and our universe.
En Orbita was always intended to be a dialogue between science and music- an expression of how music connects across spaces, cultures... and potentially dimensions.
