There is something special about genosys in monday morning daylight though, basically a field of swaying braindead zombies at that stage, just squeezing the last few drops out of the party.

It's always nice to feel seen 😬😊

I've very recently moved to Bath for a new (well, my first real) job, if anyone has any dnb/house/funky recommendations for any day parties I should check out in Bristol please let me know, haven't done anything proper since pre-pandemic and I'm missing it

The Intrigue parties are excellent. If you want to have an absolutely mental one, the Black Swan always has something interesting on. On the House/Techno tip, this is unmissable:

The music he releases as Amon Tobin on Warp is really different...downtempo experimental electronica with exceptional production and sound design.

His Two Fingers sets are beat-heavy, halfstep mixed with dnb dancefloor stuff. Highly recommend...enjoyI

Amon Tobin’s ISAM tour with the projection mapping was amazing. Absolute glitchy heaven.

Anjunadeep’s been spoken about here back along, and how much I’d wet myself for some early Friday evening sunset vibes on the farm, preferably at the Glade 🙏  

This Böhmer set is incredible, particular attention to the track drop at 30:07… 👌

Absolutely sublime finish with Need to Feel Loved as last track.

My first visit to Printworks (what a venue that is) and this set slotted in between Jody/Grant & Tinlicker, was the surprise highlight of the night for us.

This last one I’ve played & played, was my go to for a some time. It’s probably why I was a little underwhelmed with their set at PW in December. Was the first time I’d heard Overtones, which sent me down a bit of a Frost rabbit hole afterwards.

Not sure what it is about the uplifting soul tingling progressive Anjuna tones that hits a nerve. Think it stems back to the late 90’s early 00’s trance classics, and then appreciation for Adam K, Soha, EDX, Ned Shepard and the likes, even the early Deadmau5’s years.

Have a great Saturday all 😎

I find this so strange, I went to Printworks for the first time and really wasn't impressed by the main room with the balconys - it felt like an eternal fight to stay central and I would much prefer London had a venue like WHP project. Its so thin as well so unless you want to be packed in line a sardine you end up very far away. I think its a cool venue but would just prefer a more traditional warehouse

Weird aint it, everything is subjective I suppose. We had balcony tickets, and even though you could take in the atmosphere and the lighting, the sound wasn’t the best up (wouldn’t bother with the extra expense if we went again). Was only until we ventured down in amongst it near the front, parked ourselves in front of a pillar, had a really good view of the booth & the visuals etc when it all started to make sense. Fancy a la Discotheque or Glitterbox night there next.

I found the beauty of having so many repeaters in the space is that you don't need to be down the front. The sound is good and loud all the way to the back.

I love Printworks and it's a shame it's closing to be turned into offices. 

This rumour is everywhere! The lease has been extended for a decent bit longer I think.

Its a decent venue and obviously the only place you can see DJ sets from the biggest acts but i'd just like to see something more traditional (and the other side of London!)

Oh really? That's good news if true.

It was always my understanding that it was only ever a temporary space and this article in Mixmag seemed to confirm that plans are afoot for the new development.

I think its got the rest of this year at least, its time is definitely ticking down but it was originally meant to have already shut i think.

Maybe I'm just getting old and there's dozens of places I don't know about, but between this and The Cause closing down things are looking pretty bleak in Old London Town right now.

I love the main floor at Printworks, massively prefer it to WHP at Mayfield Depot. Mayfield felt too big and sprawled out and too rammed at the same time, spent all night trying and failing to find a good spot for anything. 

WHP at Store Street, on the other hand, was a #vibe. 

for me the concourse at WHP is far superior to the depot , proper vibe in there.

This recent season's slightly revamped Archive at WHP was great too. Sound massively improved on pre-pandemic seasons. The depot can be great, but you need the right artist, time of night and crowd all to gel. Jeff Mills in
November in the Depot was a really amazing vibe.

That was the exact night I was there and just couldn't get into it! Turns out these things are completely subjective, who knew...?

a cirez d or a prydz set at the spider would be outrageous ( i know theres little chance the spider is back but allow me the thought)

    • Orbital opening the Other stage is a bold choice!
    • Great start for them 
    • Thanks so much - that's very helpful. Someone else mentioned getting a train from Loughborough to East Midlands Parkway, and then a festival shuttle from there to the site. I think they were then going to come back on the Skylink Derby to Loughborough - I assume this is because the trains don't run as late as the Skylink, otherwise they would just come back the same way they came?! Is the transport hub a long way from the main stage? Just wondering what time I would need to leave Linkin Park to be sure of getting a shuttle. As I say, I am sure it will all be clear on the day, even after a few beers! Just hope the rain stays away...
    • I really don't think they would put Olivia Rodrigo on Occident stage. If it was her, they would put her in earlier Mordor slot and move Big Thief or Little Simz to Occident.   Fontaines DC are more probable, but don't really match the hype. However, again, if the hype was real, the artist would end up in Mordor.   That being said, I would love to see Fontaines DC tonight.
    • After all the good advice on here I had a nice visit to the site earlier in the week.    Walked down from Pilton village to Hitchen Hill and down the footpath to the Wood by Woodies.    Really strange seeing the site empty of 100,000 people. There is far more hedges and woodland on the site than you remember when the festival is on. Can see the stone circle and some structures still up on site. And looks like Worthy View has some camping going on there during the summer too.   Lots was fenced off with electric fencing to help wth the cattle grazing. Is really amazing how they set up the site as its hard enough accessing the area by car and foot nevermind all the kit needed to set the festival up. As others said you can't walk the whole site but nice to see the site again after a few years away   Pilton is also a lovely village with a nice village hall shop and post office attached, and got to speak to some locals who told me a few tales of past festivals down the years. One house for sale there would be lovely to live in - if only I had £2 million going spare
