Daphni wasn't actually as decent as I was hoping, apart from a few quality tunes.

Unfortunately Digital Arpeggios is the only song from Four Tet that I remember, though it was quality!  What others did he play?  Did he do his remix of Eric Prydz Opus?

Well I was at the stage of the night where i was lucid enough to love everything I heard but not enough for my brain to register it and store it for future reference, so apart from Digital Arpeggios and See Saw by Jamie xx, I can't remember any specific tracks he played. Anyone else? What was the one with the massive build up and drop? I had enough time to have an entire text conversation with Matt about how long the build up was during that one.

Same with Floating Points. Loved it, but the only thing I specifically remember him playing was Outkast.

Haha, think we were chatting during his Opus remix, that definitely got played becuause down by the barrier for it - he played Sweet Like Chocolate Boy too apparently? I do remember Joy Orbison teasing the vocal to Big Toom Tech House DJ Tool - Tip because at that moment me and a random were screaming the words in each other's faces - the utter utter shame

Yes! You're right, it was Opus, I remember it now. That track is an absolute monster live.

Don't know where I was for some of these - definitely missed out big room tech house and   Outkast being played. The night is a little hazy to be fair so don't remember too many specific tunes, sure someone dropped Plastic People though? 

Four Tet or FP for best set for me.

"This summer saw the likes of David Guetta, Axwell & Ingrosso, Hardwell, Armin van Buuren and Avicii hold residencies at Ushuaïa, with Calvin Harris, The Prodigy, Steve Angello and Disclosure also playing there."

Good god. Sad times indeed.

Just getting acquainted with Floating Points' new record.

It's really rather lovely, isn't it?

Any chance of a visit to the Farm for this talented chap, would you think? That would Float(ing) my late night Boat(ing) a treat...

Came here to post about Floating Points! It's fab. Streaming here: http://www.npr.org/2015/10/28/450599927/first-listen-floating-points-elaenia

Glastonbury doesn't seem to do too much mellow electronica, although Ulrich Schauss played a couple of years back. Here's hoping for next year.

I could definitely see him and band on West Holts sort of like Dorian Concept or Gaslamp Killer in 2015 or even Bonobo in 2014

I thought this was a good idea, until I thought about it a bit.

LOVED Dorian Concept's set last year - possibly my new find of the festival. I still listen to his latest album a lot.

With FloPo, I think the Dark Jazz/Ambient sound needs to be in the dark. I was thinking that they'd be pretty amazing at 0200h in The Rabbit Hole...

Went to see him Sunday morning as opposed to the 03:30 slot at Rabbit Hole! Was great, been wishing him back ever since, in a more accessible/friendly time slot. One can hope.

Thanks for the floating point recommendation, new name for me, but been enjoying some tonight. Nice one.

 

i think there's a fair bit of chilled electronica at Glastonbury but it's often in the smaller hippy tents, mixmaster morris style dreamscape stuff. That might or might not be your bag.

Listened to it twice today, Mardy. Really, really loving this record so far. Brilliantly Jazzy. Silhouettes is fantastic!

    • They are going to have Blink 182 for sure, early June upto around Werchter weekend I'd say for them. Two of Sweden Rock,  Greenfield and RFP are going to miss out.
    • I've come across a few this weekend saying Deftones aren't big enough for Download.   I would recommend b&b hotel hbf the night before....cheap, comfortable and very decent. Within 10 minutes from the station and a tram stop outside to jump on...all travel is free during the festival time as well with a kombi. Lidl is very good and cheap I can't lie....€6 for a chair with carey handle, €20 with a bag too...you can work that out yourself.   If you camp, get up at 5am and go to the queue....literally don't question it as now I know.     The travel wise part is easy when you get the hang of it and I've never had an easier exit from a festival today tbh. We were camped in the turn left section but past the registration and to get water you have to come right out.   Opening up an exit through he camp at least by Friday morning when everyobe is there would be much better but you csnt walk through general if you're green and sonon.   I think the issue for me probably too is I have never taken like a mutliple litre water too, I've always done a 6 pack water from like poundland lol but you definitely need it. I had one shower that was cold lol   Talking of getting into the front, Volbeat was the only easy one, for Maiden and especially Linkin Park if you weren't in the queue for it by at least the last quarter ot Architects you had no hope....it was shocking. I do like orbit to sit down. I had to decide to sack off Within Temptation too or no chance.   Second stage biggest gripe is the faff of walking all the way round when VIP or whatever it is literally get access to each bit. I did read tbh before going people though RIP/Ring was turning too much the wrong way.   Also as a side note, caught some of Limp Bizkit last night too and they are not headliner but any distance at all. Yes they pull a crowd...they would do with LP finished but on the grand scale its a super weak booking. Stop, start for video recordings all the way through a headline set?, 1hr 15 minutes and you can't play for that time. I'm so glad they were not chosen to headline main.   On another thing, if RIP played it right they'll get GC and Avril to sub/second stage headline on the Blink day.   Toilets and cleanliness is a big plus I will say that.    
    • Any of the likes of Keo, Basht. and Cardinals could all fit in here.  Although they’re the sort of bands that could fit many of the stages at Glastonbury 
    • Glasto loves a come back act - how about the Rapture?    
    • Yeah mentioned in the park thread but feel more Woodsies to me
