Deltron 3030

[Yesiamaduck]

Seen these guys get a lot of respect in the other threads, so much so I think it deserves a thread.

The orchestra worked great! And Del's performance was on point, I was captivated the whole set and when Clint Eastwood kicked in.... oh my God did my emotions go haywire as did most people in the field. Fantastic afternoon set topped off with a fantastic sing a long to top it off.... with the live orchestra and Del on stage I'd argue it's better than they Gorillaz live version.

That's one of the best displays of rapping I think I've ever seen. Del was incredible

They lose a star for Jamie Cullum though.

I agree with the first two posts (including the comment re jamie cullum) 100%.

I was absolutely transfixed.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Kid Koala also probably deserves a mention.

I mean, I quite enjoyed J5, but Deltron were miles better.

They were bloody EXCELLENT, and I made my missus and mate come along with me - they both loved it too. I really, really like it when that happens, I look like a magical musical soothsayer all of a sudden

They were setting up as I was walking by. Dismissed them after youtube views, was curious, waited for them to fire up and stayed for the whole thing. Good stuff.

[Mr.Tease]

Enjoyed them too- a shame to miss out on De La Soul, but 'twas worth it! I hadn't heard of them until people started mentioning them on here a few weeks ago, so thanks to those folks who recommended them! Same goes for War on Drugs.

Brilliant set!

I didn't even know who these guys were at first. I was hanging around by the Brothers Bar before they came on, after their first song I moved nearer to the stage as I liked the sound of them, ended up staying for the whole set. They're in my top 3 of the bands I saw, absolute class. The rapper was smooth as hell too.

They were awesome, I'm definitely going to buy the album, not sure why dan the Automator felt the need to fake conduct the orchestra though

[CaledonianGonzo]

He had to do something, I suppose.

agreed - most rappers are total crap live. I loved this.

[CaledonianGonzo]

A technical tour de force from Senor Homosapien. Any other live rapping I've ever seen suffers in comparison.

The trombone players were really going for it as well.

Best thing I saw all weekend.

[OBface]

Favourite thing I saw - agree the crowd size was poor. Given the general lack of hip hop no idea why it planned at the same time as De La Soul. Madness.

surely there's no one with a love of hip-hop that wouldn't know to swerve De La Soul nowadays?

The second album is only £5.99 on iTunes at the mo

I think the small crowd helped make it for me - was perfectly chilled, which was everything the jurassic 5 crowd was not...

I didn't even mind the fake conducting

"Deltron is our hero, if he can't do it nobody can!"

that had to be the worst sing-a-long I think i've ever seen.
