Live at Audioriver Festival – Poland

We proudly present new footage from our recent gig at Audioriver festival in Poland. After 5 hours in the van (the driver went the wrong way) in staggering heat (air-con malfunction) with Chris threatening to remove his trousers (Charlotte notices small hammer marked ‘in emergency, break glass’), we finally arrived for sound-check in the mother of all storms which had been chasing us all the way from Warsaw…

Lightning, thunder, wind and huge fat lumps of rain hit the festival like a wet sponge and as we all ran around the stage like headless chickens pelted by wet sponges and trying desperately to cover all our equipment from the driving rain, a rather large Red Bull tent rolled past the main stage like a gigantic tumbleweed and one side of our stage was blown down. We lost a piano which blew up in the rain and the big LED wall at the back had a crisis and decided it no longer wanted to be an LED wall and promptly died but eventually the storm subsided, Chris didn’t in fact remove his trousers and the rain blew away. Hallelujah. Bloody marvellous!

So Mike has edited together some of the footage from the gig and here we are playing Break My Soul to a sensational and perhaps slightly soggy crowd. We had so much fun, thank you people of Plock. One of the best festivals to date!

  1. I was frightened when i saw this big ass rain at first but then i thought “listening to Hybrid in a armageddon-like storm ? …hmmm BRING IT ON “.

    Truly, listenig to Break My Soul and Finished Symphony live was the experience i will never forget. Audioriver should be an island (like in Jurassic Park) with You, Way Out West, Laurent Garnier and the rest of great artists, playing there all the time. I could live and die there ;)

    Thank you

  2. Well well well… The Champions League of electronic music, captured by a really awesome video! Big up from Berlin :-)

  3. you must have enough footage for a live DVD by now ? I’d be first in the pre-order queue if you did.

  4. Pure awesome. Only thing that was not like I wanted it to be was…time..I hoped that you would play longer. It was great seeing you again in Poland. Now I only hope for one more thing…that you come back to Poland soon.

  5. Hey – followed you guys for years – agree with the comment above – bring out a live DVD make it 5.1 DTS heck, make it BLUERAY…… YOU guys are awesome i took up keyboards and music, because of unfinished symphony. Don`t give up ever xxxx

  6. Was Charlotte distracted by the storm or did she just have a bad day? On the recordings she ha such a wonderful voice, but here she misses the odd note…
    Anyways, I’m really envious of those people and hope to be able to see you guys live one day.

  7. Wow! Finding this track made me buy all the albums. The part when it breaks down into Charlotte singing for the 2nd time, around four and a half minutes is absolute heaven and honestly makes me so chuffed i almost cry. Keep up the good work amazing xx
