NORTH AMERICA 2024

France summer show, festivals 2024.

Electric Callboy set another milestone in their career with their new album “Tekkno” . With more than 60.000 sold tickets on a completely sold-out tour in Germany, almost sold out shows in France, the USA and other A-cities in Europe speak a clear language. Electric Callboy are an exceptional phenomenon, who even managed to convince the Parookaville audience with their spectacular and ecstatic live show, while being the festival’s first rock band in time. Furthermore, they are looking forward to a completely sold-out UK tour in September to present their sixth studio album “Tekkno”.

On top of strong ticket sales, Electric Callboy are also a remarkable force online, as reflected in over 150-million video views on YouTube , more than 500.000 followers on social media and 1.6 million monthly listeners on Spotify . Singles such as “Pump It” and “We Got The Moves” proved how the band sounds in 2021, delivering a decent dose of heaviness at the beginning of their new album and an irresistible chorus that makes “Pump It” a true showcase for the versatility in their sound.

Electric Callboy take their audience back to the 90s with “Tekkno” and combine feelings of nostalgia with their flawless and modern production. A hot contender for one of the most important metalcore albums of the year, “Tekkno” delivers the most diverse sound the band from Castrop-Rauxel has ever presented.

A cinematic beginning slowly builds up “Mindreader” just before the track builds on heavy riffings in a stomping Slipknot manner. Electric Callboy, however, never lose their drive for catchiness, which is always given by cleverly placed choruses that perfectly complement the driving metalcore elements in their music. Between Eurodance vibes on “Arrow Of Love” and billowing EDM beats (“Tekkno Train”), Electric Callboy aim for a sound that, similar to “Hypa Hypa” reveals a Scooter-esque style, combined with the band’s metal guise. Precise breakdowns meet hardcore beats and the synth-loaden sounds that make Electric Callboy’s sound unique.

Hardstyle beats (“Parasite”) also join the heavy and driving metal sound on “Tekkno,” adding a rhythmic component to the guitar riffs with electronic inserts that further polish their sound. “Neon”, like “Arrow Of Love”, surrenders to a nineties disco vibe that turns the track into a synth ballad and reveals a peaceful momentum of the album. Electric Callboy are literally “ready to fly” and invite you to sing and dance along on “Neon” with their worn but brilliant finale to end the album. “Tekkno” even masters the balancing act between flawless

Electric Callboy Reveal 2024 North American Tour 

Following their massive 2023 TEKKNO World Tour across Europe, the U.K., and North America, the German band Electric Callboy plans a limited North American trek for May 2024.

Blending metalcore with elements of various electronic music genres, the “electronicore” band will have a six-city run beginning May 12 in Silver Spring, Maryland at The Fillmore, with stops in New York City, Chicago, Toronto, and Laval. The trek wraps up on May 19 in Boston at MGM Music Hall at Fenway.

Electric Callboy’s history dates back to 2010 under their previous name “Eskimo Callboy.” They are popular for adopting a relaxed approach to the genre as well as their live shows, videos, and comedic songs who are at peace with themes like getting drunk, parties, and sex.

German Metal Hammer magazine once wrote in a review: “…This is why they are enjoyable: because they dismiss themselves and let the fun rule.”

Although they have released six studio albums since 2012, April 2022 marked the release of Electric Callboy’s first song under their new name, “Spaceman,” featuring rapper Finch.

The group dropped their latest album Tekkno in September 2022, which included previously released singles “We Got the Moves” and “Pump It,” as well as “Spaceman.” The album ranked No. 1 at the German charts in the first week after release, the highest ranking any record of Electric Callboy achieved.

Fans who want to see the band live can score their tickets on MEGASeats (use the code TICKETNEWS for 10% off your order), StubHub , or Ticket Club , where readers can obtain a free membership and avoid service fees with the code TICKETNEWS.

Moscow Metro

The Moscow Metro Tour is included in most guided tours’ itineraries. Opened in 1935, under Stalin’s regime, the metro was not only meant to solve transport problems, but also was hailed as “a people’s palace”. Every station you will see during your Moscow metro tour looks like a palace room. There are bright paintings, mosaics, stained glass, bronze statues… Our Moscow metro tour includes the most impressive stations best architects and designers worked at - Ploshchad Revolutsii, Mayakovskaya, Komsomolskaya, Kievskaya, Novoslobodskaya and some others.

What is the kremlin in russia?

The guide will not only help you navigate the metro, but will also provide you with fascinating background tales for the images you see and a history of each station.

And there some stories to be told during the Moscow metro tour! The deepest station - Park Pobedy - is 84 metres under the ground with the world longest escalator of 140 meters. Parts of the so-called Metro-2, a secret strategic system of underground tunnels, was used for its construction.

During the Second World War the metro itself became a strategic asset: it was turned into the city's biggest bomb-shelter and one of the stations even became a library. 217 children were born here in 1941-1942! The metro is the most effective means of transport in the capital.

There are almost 200 stations 196 at the moment and trains run every 90 seconds! The guide of your Moscow metro tour can explain to you how to buy tickets and find your way if you plan to get around by yourself.

Coordinates of Elektrostal in decimal degrees

Coordinates of elektrostal in degrees and decimal minutes, utm coordinates of elektrostal, geographic coordinate systems.

WGS 84 coordinate reference system is the latest revision of the World Geodetic System, which is used in mapping and navigation, including GPS satellite navigation system (the Global Positioning System).

Geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) define a position on the Earth’s surface. Coordinates are angular units. The canonical form of latitude and longitude representation uses degrees (°), minutes (′), and seconds (″). GPS systems widely use coordinates in degrees and decimal minutes, or in decimal degrees.

Latitude varies from −90° to 90°. The latitude of the Equator is 0°; the latitude of the South Pole is −90°; the latitude of the North Pole is 90°. Positive latitude values correspond to the geographic locations north of the Equator (abbrev. N). Negative latitude values correspond to the geographic locations south of the Equator (abbrev. S).

Longitude is counted from the prime meridian ( IERS Reference Meridian for WGS 84) and varies from −180° to 180°. Positive longitude values correspond to the geographic locations east of the prime meridian (abbrev. E). Negative longitude values correspond to the geographic locations west of the prime meridian (abbrev. W).

UTM or Universal Transverse Mercator coordinate system divides the Earth’s surface into 60 longitudinal zones. The coordinates of a location within each zone are defined as a planar coordinate pair related to the intersection of the equator and the zone’s central meridian, and measured in meters.

Elevation above sea level is a measure of a geographic location’s height. We are using the global digital elevation model GTOPO30 .
