Cheers mate, I'm glad you got time to check it out and enjoy it 😁 we 'usually' have one out every other Friday if we've pricked your interest.

Producer 🥰

I was introduced to the scene when someone gave me the cassette of Producer & Grooverider at Universe In2Orbit in 1992. Completely changed everything for me.

Luke was a huge favourite in the South West in the early to mid 90s, he seemed to be at every event. Come 1995 it all got a bit too gabba for me. Would love to see him play an old school early 90s techno/Belgian set on the farm.

Are we thinking we might get a Silver Hayes announcement or something this week? 

Sounds like the Arcadia lineup is a week or two away yet based on what a pal in the know told me earlier.

if you want some clarity on next announcements .... id advise you dont look in the next announcement thread

That would be quite early for Arcadia if its a week or two, usually they are one of the last near the end of May

Ah just reread the message, the pal is thinking they'll get an advance of the lineup, but doesn't actually mention anything going public at that point - my bad!

Amazing. My first event of that size was Big Love in 93. A month after my sixteenth birthday. Good times. Did you do any others?

Did the universes. A few of the orbital ones and others I just can't remember the names of,  plenty of warehouses around the South West, but that was in the back of a car and off so no idea where they were. I was looking for the flyers the other day to sick up in the shed I have my decks in. Looks like I have lost them all which is gutting beyond belief

Half knew the chap behind Universe and many years later in a small field where he put on a party I am sure Producer did that.

I have around 10% (the Universe, Fantazia, Obsession, Dance Planet and local south west ones) of my flyers from then. Like most kids at the time, my bedroom wall was covered by so many, you couldn't see the wallpaper. I put the vast majority of them all in an A1 art folder when I left home and they disappeared. Gutted.

Alon Shulman? He's since written this book. Highly recommended read. 

I think he's Carl Cox' manager amongst other things these days.

One of my first 'outdoor' bookings was the Big Love they did in Oxford in '96. Great night. Paul Shurey RIP.

    • Muse will be about but the issue with Muse is that they’ll have the pick of doing IOW, BST, Glasto, R&L or big parks/stadiums.

    • Not sure what this means for 2027 but it looks like Holt Farm's website and email are both now inactive and unavailable.   It'll be a shame if they don't operate for 2027 as it was an excellent alternative to the other off-site offerings.   Fingers crossed they're just enjoying their downtime 🤞
    • Deftones, Blink, Muse?   Deftones as the next bump up makes all the sense, Blink as the "band that has never played before" and round out with Muse as its been a long time since they headlined and they have a new album coming which seems on the heavier side from the singles so far.   I could see Muse do their own tour to be fair, maybe MCR in their place? Could also see Deftones switched out for Slipknot/SOAD depending on who is about.
    • I have no issue with the Primavera crowd in most respects. They’re always friendly, respectful and no hint that there could be trouble at any point.   However…the talking is horrific here. The xx was pretty much ruined for me due to people having conversations with their mates the whole way through. Noticed it from all different nationalities across the weekend…English, Irish, Spanish etc. There seems to be no understanding of the nuances of when it’s okay to talk and when it isn’t. And obviously the sound being quiet at a lot of spots on the main stages exacerbates the issue. That alone has made me reconsider whether I will be coming back, it would probably take a lineup as good as this year (unlikely)
