I've loved that Prospa - Prayer - track since I first heard it. They seem like lovely young lads too. I've added a mix of theirs I heard on Pete Tong a few months back to the spreadsheet. It's only a half hour studio mix, so probably not that indicative, but there's not that much of their work out online yet. I love the way they've come through as the next generation, but with obviously a lot of love for the scene and the history. I feel like they might be the genuine article, unlike Krystal Klear. I hate knocking someone who puts their work out there, but I think Neutron Dance is a shit, New Order rip-off and I rant about it to whoever's nearby if that track comes on within my earshot.

Just Worked my way through their Spotify, they're great!

I've downloaded literally everything they've released today and "Prayer" has been in my head all day. Absolutely my kind of electronica.

They're in my top 5 will-not-miss at the festival now.

Running a half marathon tomorrow and Prayer is on my “Finish The Job” playlist. I hadn’t listened to any of their other material or even twigged they were playing until this little love in. The Electronica/Dance thread provides again ??

Hooj Tunes was pretty much THE label back in 95, wasn't it?

Hooj were mega. There is a mint classic trance line up in Manchester 17 august. Red Jerry is on. He'll definitely bang out Hooj tunes. Lange is playing & so is Andres Ribeca doing a nu nrg set. Im very tempted. Just for Ribeca really.

There's some clips doing the round of Skream and Rusko doing an old school dubstep set (Christ that makes me feel old) at some festival in America over the weekend.

Obviously dubstep gets a lot of flak and most of it is deserved. I blame the yanks. but Skream and Benga at my first glasto in 2008 at the bassline circus is still one of my favourite ever sets.

Would love to see Skream back on a dubstep flex, I'm sure it would go down a storm on the new arcadia

Someone asked him on Instagram why he didn’t do it in the place where it started as there’d be more people there to appreciate it. 

His was response was that there would be more people there who’d think they knew better basically. He said he thought it was pretty special playing those tunes to people hearing them for the first time.

Yeah Dubstep 'Hedz' are some of the most irritating elitist types of music fans I've encountered.

hopefully there will be something to get me feeling all nostalgic on this years line-up

If not I'll be happy enough with all the DnB. Randall b2b Kasra is something I'm particularly looking forward to

There was a hard house and trance stage last time - I really enjoyed it but my mates weren’t having it!

I can only put up with it for so long.

Its why I really enjoy going to off me nut nights here in sheff, you get loads of different genres throughout the night, always really silly and high energy and they usually end with a banging hard style or donk set. 

hoping they have some representation on the line up this year as well, I know phatworld have had sets in the electric carrousel in the past

I reckon I'll get it out of my system at Eat Static:

Ahaha nice one but I was camped next to the Psytrance forest at boomtown a couple of years ago and I think I've heard enough to last me a life time. Bits of it I can get on with, but for me it gets way to samey... like I can deal with it for a bit but definitely need to be in the right mind set

    • Another note, if I didn't mention the food in the arena for main stage is right at the back. Bands wise they do very well for but as a festival so far they pros are outweighed quite heavily currently for me.
    • On another note for RIP as an event, there is some good things but there are so many things people going to UK festivals would hate and how far behind they are.  Consistent network and water, beer and pretzel like food is brought around to buy in the crowds. Topping up on the wristband is good. The camping and food arrangement is not good, you really need cooking kit. Water points inside the arena are bonkers, water points in camping are a faff unless you are close enough in general camp. Merch stands are crazy. You MASSIVELY need to think about your lidl shop for camping and try and do it so you've one stop. It's definitely worth it getting to a camping shop here, picking up a rolley between your mates and stacking it for the walk back....lidl is cheap though, not hard getting in but Thursday queues getting in and into the camping is mad. You have to register first for a wristband as well leaving any bigger bags behind so pull to a side if only two and do it separately. I was joining a WhatsApp group for solo camp so went with the flow but I've learnt. Had it been me or just two my tent would have been down much quicker.  Big final note, I got a fresh and black 3 man from decathlon before coming and put in bigger suitcase with my airbed and sleeping bag...do this. Take a smaller option for your clothes. If you go to Munich first, book your train to Nuremberg as far in advance as you can....very important!....it hikes crazy. Probably bettee overall for baggage sizes to do BA both ways but you do then need to go back to Munich after too. Use the B&B hotel hbf the night before....its very nice, comfortable, cheap and within 10 minutes of the station which also serves as a transport stop 15 minutes from the registration.  Get up literally like 5am with everything back the night before, shower and go. Transport is free anyway for festival ticket holders during the duration.  Would I just choose to travel in each day and back to a hotel?, on the basis of sleep and getting accommodation cheap enough for 3 nights i might just do especially if I picked the ticket up early enough. It doesn't feel like a festival in a normal sense....unless you are in general yoi have to exit on the paths outside the camping to walk down and in which also applies for getting water so have a stock up. Toilets are in the camping.
    • Yup and they aren't cheap   Glastonbury is different though, it's a place that will pack out for rarities they don't usually see. Download strictly speaking shouldn't be the strangest place for Avril to pop up of she had been a touring artist of longer times over the years.   Avril and GC would get the same billing for me and GC are selling arenas out quicker than Avril sold Ally Pally. Bearing in mind she'd pnly done soem Brixton dates before.
    • Avril gets above GC on rarity (see Cypress Hill this year). She drew in something like 70,000 at Glastonbury, so much so that they had to close the field off. I’d wager that she would get the biggest crowd of the entire weekend if she was to play DL.
