Neversun in Channel Zero sporočata, da to sezono začenjata s sklopom večerov pod skupnim imenom Dark Saturdays, ki bodo namenjeni predvsem vsem privržencem temačnih zvokov. Tako vsako soboto od začetka oktobra dalje, v klubu Channel Zero na Metelkovi, napovedujejo druženja, na katerih bodo različni DJ-ji skrbeli za posamezne tematske sklope in seveda obilo temačnih užitkov za vse ljubitelje dark oz. gothic scene. Sama glasbena usmeritev pa se bo gibala od žagajočega gothic metala, rocka in alter scene 80-ih, preko industriala, hard electra in dark techna, pa vse do bolj plesnih electro, EBM in future pop ritmov.
Prvi večer, imenovan Dance Of The Shadows 3, bosta v soboto 1. oktobra otvorila DJ-ja Dark Angel in HellFucker, ki sta dosedaj delovala predvsem na področju Gorenjske. To pa bo njun prvi skupni projekt v Ljubljani. Poudarek bo tokrat bolj na gothic metalu, ne bo pa manjkalo tudi drugih predstavnikov vseh sorodnih usmeritev. Tako lahko pričakujete glasbo izvajalcev, kot so: Type O Negative, The 69 Eyes, Marilyn Manson, Paradise Lost, Moonspell, Nightwish, Terminal Choice, Orgy, Zeromancer, Dreadful Shadows, Rammstein, To/Die/For, Cradle Of Filth, Crematory, Theatre Of Tragedy, Umbra Et Imago, Oomph!, Within Temptation, Danzig, Heroes Del Silencio in mnogih drugih.
