It can be hard to summarize as DNB has so many sub genres, the line up is pretty good across the board although several artists listed are more likely to play a range of genres as dance music has diversified in the last few years. I would personally recommend the following:

Thursday
Netsky (Wow)

Friday
D-Bridge (London Underground)
DJ Flight (London Underground)

Saturday

Danny Byrd (Wow)
Shyfx & Ragga Twins (The Hub)
Randall (Bassline Circus)


Sunday

London ELektricity (Glade)
Calyx & Teebee (Arcadia)

[freeak]

Arcadia Friday
22:00 - 23:00    Dr Meaker
02:00 - 03:00    Dirtyphonics

How about True Tiger?? But not sure what you'd class them as also Mista Jam is on sometime...I'm considering only seeing these acts all weekend!!

I'm going to get myself destroyed at Camo & Krooked on the Sunday, G Stage, half three in the afternoon!

Palpitations just thinking about it. Please be hot! Remember watching sub focus last year at the glade.

Just back from LED Festival. All I can say there is one band I am definitely seeing again.

Modestep were incredible.

More dubstep but there's DnB & live remixes of "F***k You" & "Kernkraft 400/Zombie Nation".

If you've got the time, go see.

Just back from that too.  Wasn't too impressed by them but my mates were.

DJ Hype was immense.  The best dj i saw all day.

You'd be mad to go to Glasto just for drum and bass or any other single genre. I'm interested in knowing what d'n'b is happening cos I really like hearing it at a festival, particularly in the open air as opposed to in a club  (so looking forward to things like London Elek at the Glade).

Omitting Pendulum was an oversight on my part. Love 'em or loathe 'em they prob still deserve the d'n'b label (just about)

never thought about it for just one genre, bit of everything is best, bands during day dnb/dance etc later on for me

I'm going go see Camo & Krooked. Half three on the Sunday (according to Halvin's Clashfinder) will be horrible.

horrible why? too early?!

By the way... Good luck on the Thursday night leaving any stage and getting into another one, there's no chance of that happening, its one in one out with mile long queues for each stage, if you manage to get into one stage, just stay there if you wanna listen to music, there's simply no way on earth you'll see all those on the Thursday night.

yea good point - it's gonna be a f****** ballache

If I feel as hungover & run down as I did on the Sunday last year at half three then it's going to hurt.

Wasn't looking forward to Hype that much but he did impress. When he dropped Tear You Down into Mr Happy I was having it near the front.

Think Jaguar Skills was a lot better than last time I saw him (less air horns) & Netsky was good but doesn't need the MC.

The thing for me personally is i find it hard to get into like dnb/dance music during the day when it's sunny and bright, depends on the tent/stage i guess

but i mean i'd prefer to be listening to dnb late in the night/early morning, in a dark club/room or something

just feels odd going from band to dnb

lol

[the8thdave]

I really want to hear some proper old skool jungle so I'll be aiming to see Randall, Ratty, Bizzy B... hopefully Shy Fx and Storm as well.  

Doubt I'll get to see all of them but any combination of those guys would be nice!

I agree. At least at most festivals dance music is normally in a tent so it's a bit darker & better for acoustics. G Stage is a nice set up & looks ace surrounded by the trees.
