BONG-RA, The Answer Lies In The Black Void, Odion
Bong-Ra, Jason Köhnen's electronic musical alter ego, came to life in 1996. Previously a bassist and drummer in metal bands, he is at home in a multitude of musical styles. The Dutch-born talent started his new career as a DJ with an electronic flavour, but soon moved on to writing his own music.

Dürer Kert
Dürer Kert, which moved from the City Park to the vicinity of Kopaszi Dam, is one of the hangouts of Budapest's surviving peripheral subcultures, but it's also worth visiting if you just want a perfect garden spot. That is, starting in spring. Until then, let's keep rockin'! And after that, too.
