[UPDATE (8/18/10): Flying Lotus has been added]

Seattle’s Decibel Festival is back for its eighth year, this time boasting talent from 14 countries. The festival brings together technology and creativity through visual art, workshops, panel discussions, and electronic-music performances.

The musical lineup this year is long and impressive; Fennesz, Ben Frost, Eskmo, Alex B, Ctrl_Alt_Dlt, Mount Kimbie, and Starkey are among the nearly 100 performers, speakers, and visual artists scheduled for appearance.  With a world-class conference included (details have yet to be released), this event is an oasis of underground electronic music and art with plenty to offer.

Founded in 2003, the non-profit electronic-music festival and conference is a four-day annual event, hosted at 10 venues in Seattle’s Capitol Hill neighborhood.  This year, the festival will take place on September 22-26.  Four-day passes can be purchased for $155, while individual tickets for the showcases can be purchased on Decibel’s website.
