With each passing year, Decibel Festival somehow manages to get more accessible and more adventurous. This year's lineup looks incredibly potent and diverse (Thursday's itinerary alone is making my head explode: Demdike Stare, Andy Stott, Cut Hands, Maria Minerva, Jon McMillion, Orbital, Kuedo, Robag Wruhme, Fennesz & Jon Wozencroft's Liquid Music film, etc.), and you'll hear me blab about it more in the near future. For now, though, watch this slick trailer and then check out the stats and artist roster after the jump.

With a focus on live electronic music performance, deejay culture, interactive multimedia art, state-of-the-art sound and technology based education, Decibel has solidified itself as one of the premier electronic music festivals and promotional organizations in the world.

160+ artists from, 24 countries, across 5 days
15 premier venues across Seattle
35 club based concerts
8 official after hours
