So this could mean another (at least small) tour, aye? Would be fantastic since I completely missed out on the further tour.

I reckon it will be a DJ Set. They often play DJ Sets at Sonar inbetween tours.

Indeed. F*ckin' awesome that they're obviously still up and at it, making new music and creating some fantastic grooves.

:D :D :D

Turns out it was a mistake. There was a description saying something like "a festival with renowed bands such as Bjork, Orbital and The Chemical Brothers". Fnac assumed it was bands from the line up :/

On the other hand, the line up is great :
Amon Tobin, deadmau5, Fatboy Slim, The Roots, Hot Chip, Modeselektor, Squarepusher, Laurent Garnier, etc etc.

Well, I’m waiting for announcements. Deadmau5 headlining Sonar? C’mon, this festival is way more classy.

He seems to be a crowd pleaser these days with a pretty damn good light show. I enjoyed his set twice last year--had a lot of fun.

I wouldn't say he's not "classy"; that might be something to be said of Skrillex. But his music does leave something to be desired in terms of what us more sophisticated listeners recognize as "talent."
