Bit gutted I've got a Saturday ticket, as Sunday is a bit more stacked for me. Usually do two days but after last year when the Sunday was abandoned by us I think I prefer smashing one day out and then saving the multiple days for Glasto and the like.

Folamour owes shangri la a set

He most certainly does. Can't believe he was a no-show last year. As soon as the substitute generic tech house DJ who replaced him fired up, I knew the dream was over. Still had a good night in the Naughty Corner, but he was going to be a highlight.

Still don't know why he never turned up

I thought someone just said Overmono was a UK exclusive but they're on both loves saves and gala?

Lovr folamour... hopefully this year

Will be there as I go every year but it's quite strange, there's loads of depth in the undercard but some strange placings. Would have said Four Tet is a headliner outright!

Not sure on that, Four Tet is subbing Boardmasters i think (or maybe second stage headliner) which has a similar daily capacity.

They had Bicep last year who did WH and Four Tet was on the park too for a glasto comparison

Years and Years subbed other which is i guess similar to WH headline - so Four Tet is just a good booking (as always!)

Hopefully Partiboi69 gets booked again. That set in the gas tower on monday morning was something else

But then Four Tet is selling out multiple Alexandra Palace gigs too, I suppose maybe he's just happy playing anywhere really - what a guy

Not sure it would sell quite as well without the lights? He did a brixton run of 3 in 2021 that didn't fly out i thought

I said this in another thread I think but I've heard he's only playing a few UK festivals. Glasto, one in Scotland and believe it's only one more, I only got as far as 'maybe Parklife' as person telling me couldn't remember for sure

Brodinski too! Not seen his name on a flyer for a while

[listenstolotsofcrap]

Bit of a wait in the queue but grabbed tickets for Field Day, be good to see Mr R D James again.

Looking at the lineup, I really hope Arca, Sudan Archives and Kelela get nice spots on the Glastonbury card, be great to see them there too.

Glad I got a ticket early on. Huge lineup for me

Yeah, me too! They did mistakenly confirm Justice when the tickets went on sale but quickly deleted it. Yeah, that's a monumental lineup tbf. Give it a few days and that'll sell out for sure

Just booked The Hydra: Tresor also. Love Fjaak and never seen any of the others on that lineup before

Oooosh, that's a good one too. Lots on there for a few on this thread. Hector Oaks is a big favourite of our leader @bennyhana22if I recall correctly. Surgeon, too. And Mills of course. In fact, I'd be surprised if you don't see him there!

Printworks has gone all out in the final season.

Nice! I'm only 22 so haven't got round to seeing a lot of big names still! You guys can let me know what to expect 🤣

Fred is doing a run of dates at a London venue later this year, tba.

Four Tet’s Brixton run was his “& Friends” dj night - pretty low key and wasn’t a live show.

Most of the top names on this play most years anyway / just played for Years & Years or say Sub Focus B2B Dimension or Hybrid Minds.

Can very much see Overmono becoming a regular and Folamour owes shangri la a set

What the hell happened with that shangri la set? I turned late and was so confused

Was going to post that Printworks Tresor line-up.

I mean, that's just ridiculously stacked. Klock b2b DVS1 alone is worth the entry fee (almost!). DVS1 is one of the very greatest, IMO. And yeah, Hector pretty much only spins vinyl and is bloody good at it! Tho' Child 1 has alluded to some possibly questionable personal behaviours...

I have been in the presence of greatness, my young Padawans. 

Oscar Mulero played a 3h set this morning that was, quite simply, majestic. Clever and nuanced, intelligent and narrative. I make no apologies for that sounding a bit muso arsey, but it's the difference between 95% of techno and the 5% cream risen to the top. Even when he was going really hard and noisy, there was still so much going on in the tracks - another reminder that we shouldn't accept poor sound systems. This stuff we love is (like ogres) layered, and we deserve to hear it!

The White Hotel has got to be my favourite club, I think. Perfect size, nicely edgy and grimy, but with an invariably brilliant crowd. Alex Morgan followed the master with 2h (4.30-6.30) that were perfect for keeping the capacity crowd right on top. THAT is how raving should be. Lovely door staff, no searches, discreet floor staff and a wonderful, communal experience. 

Absolute belter. 

Little bit tired now.

Tomorrowland lineup, some really good names there, horrific poster though, nearly got a migraine reading it😂
