Neither should we get into that! Techno is a broad church, and all the better for it*

I've seen lots of techno DJs at Glastonbury (Carl Cox, Richie Hawtin, Marcel Dettmann, Jerome Hill, Kevin Saunderson, Dave Clarke, DJ Pierre and more).

I worded my message poorly and it was meant in response to the possibility of 'world music' at the revamped Beat Hotel. I was wondering whether they might take that space in a different direction and book a load of techno peeps in there, but I'm probably way off the mark there.

As has rightly been pointed out, the techno will probably reside in the SE Corner.

I hoped to see a couple of names in Silver Hayes though, given I saw Richie Hawtin there a few years back. 

Do love a bit of Hawtin. Saw him at Club Paradiso on Mykonos (clang) a few years ago. Stellar.

His Plastikman set at Glastonbury (98?) is up there as one of the best sets I have ever seen

Gotta say I’d be into a head the ball mini UFO stage like at Dekmantel playing nosebleed techno all weekend. Probably only go about 4 hours over the entire weekend but it’d be nice to have a total change of pace mid day if the mood took me.

It's like entering another realm of evolution going into that darkness whilst it's broad daylight outside. Lights flying everywhere

 

What a place

Suppose I’m a little surprised to not see Bradley Zero - think he’ll be elsewhere @bennyhana22?

Maybe playing whatever replaces the BH?

He nabbed my set of the year award last year,  SO FUCKING GOOD. Although I suppose there weren't hundreds of candidates considering clubs were closed until July 😅

As said, out of upvotes, but YES! The live on IICON dream is still on.

I thought dance acts mostly just did 1 live set, then loads of dj sets extra if they decide to?

We can maybe expect Prospa Live on IICON then ??

 

edit: obviously massively wishful thinking but I kinda expected them to be on Silver Hayes and don’t know where else they’d be this year, would be a shame if they aren’t there at all

That would be a big stylistic departure from IICON - I’d have thought if they’re going that way a DJ set from Overmono would be more likely.

I’d be really surprised if Prospa aren’t there though - maybe on a non-dance stage? Where ever Fred Again hopefully is playing?

Their live set is one I'm really interested in, mainly cause of the guitar. I know they both spent years in bands as teenagers so it's quite intriguing to see how much they bring that side in (maybe just for the little 80s style solo in one of their tunes)

    • Is anyone selling a medium camper van parking spot - I would love to buy it off you!   Bought our tickets a while ago and have since found out gf is pregnant and will be 7 months by festival! Luckily family have just bought a camper van we can borrow so we can still come along but… the medium parking spots have sold out 😞   
    • Sure enough I did finish the Brosnan Bonds. Goldeneye is good but I think might be overrated by some Bond mega-fans, The World Is Not Enough is ok but nothing more than that and Die Another Day is just wild. I didn't hate Die Another Day like some have but its basically a wacky sci-fi film with Bond movie clothes.
    • Monaco comes across to me as something that's great for just watching people driving around, especially this year as it feels like this is a track where they can actually push compared to other circuits where superclipping ruins it, but where the cars seem to have outgrown it.   Though tbf Formula E has had decent Monaco races recently so maybe its a sign of car development philosophy being a factor.
    • Feel like a lot of people do just sit around by the stage at a festival waiting for one act anyway, no? I know Swift has a big mega-fandom - she wouldn't have done so many Wembley shows last year if she didn't - but it's not like she'd be unique in playing a festival and drawing a crowd on that specific day just for her.   But then tbf I feel like there'd be a few happy just to mosy around the rest of the site until maybe 2/3 acts beforehand.
