Midland, Freakenstein, Rinse FM or Nightmares on Wax should all be good for Friday. I might try Midland if I can stay up. Would be my first proper sunrise. I've usually called it at 4 latest.

 

Don't recognise any names after 3 on Saturday 😕 

Saturday after Prydz is a struggle for me as well

 

I have Peach down at the Meatrack but going in with the assumption there will be big queue and might not be worth it

DJ Stingray 313 is one of the best electro DJs in the business. I expect him to play very techy electro on IICON (Saturday 0200-0400h), and may well throw in the occasional four to the floor techno track too. He's the business.

 

Madison Moore is a really interesting DJ (Saturday 0230-0430h, Genosys) and I'm likely to try to see some of Stingray and some of them. I love the set below - something like that at peak time on Genosys would be phenomenal.

Deena Abdelwahed on IICON after Stingray will play techno with a Middle-Eastern/North African flavour.

 

Partok on Genosys after Madison Moore will be a solid techno closer.

Searching on the app, this comes up when you click on Arcadia, this adds up with the supposed dragonfly design aswell

.

If that's the design concept then I'm happy. Love a 360 stage and was a big fan of Pangea and the spider so more of the same is better for me.

People that stay up until sunrise, do you just sleep through the next day or just power through?

 

I used to do an all nighter on Sundays, but I can't hack that now. 

 

 

 

The honest answer is take MDMA, or whatever you're having yourself. I stay out all night every night except Wednesday and sleep from about 7am until 11 or 12. Blackout tent, earplugs and I usually camp somewhere fairly quiet. I normally am drinking a fair few cans while I'm at it as well but as long as I stay away from whiskey or vodka I'm always relatively fine. Although this year I'm solo and flying over from Ireland, my friends from the UK who normally sort me out with party supplies are not coming and I am obviously not bringing anything through an airport, so it'll be interesting to see if I can still do the same.

I'm usually ok off little sleep when partying. 

 

Wed - hopefully catch sunset and sunrise. Missed last year but previously drop Mrs off around 4/5am in the back campervan field, then walk back to the stone circle for sunrise. Home for a 2/3hrs sleep then back out Thurs until 5/6/7am, up around 10/11am - rinse repeat until Sunday when I stop drinking in the afternoon and go to bed after the headliners/food. 

 

I love dance music, bimble around the fields, watch a few bands, eat the lovely food and the find house/acid/techno. 

 

Like mentioned, plenty of extras and vodka mainly.

Check out Emmet Read - not on the lineup but a set is potentially in the works, pure Italo disco 

 

About a week late getting back to you, but this is exactly the type of stuff I was looking for, probably even more so than Palms Trax who I used as an example. Doesn't seem to be on the full lineup though unfortunately. Any similar recommendations and I'm all ears!

Any recommendations for 4-6 on the Friday and Saturday to dance to whilst the sun comes up, not DnB or Jungle please 

Platform 23 - Benji B at 4 then into Nightmares on Wax at 5.

Yeah, I just wish the new Glade was a slightly better stage for proper dance music. Might have been that Avery and Fearless was just too packed last year, but it didn't feel like a crowd that was really there to dance...

Edit - and a shame, as their selections were phenomenal. 

You were scuppered by your spot - was lovely at the edge of the tent, and not really busy

The amount of people asking about this makes me wonder if it’s actually not going to be a total f**king nightmare

 

They are ust doing a DJ set on levels, and their DJ sets don't interest me much. I think the chroma show on IICON will be better.

    • 13th Primavera (Thursday was definitely making me feel like this was the cursed year).  Blood Orange was such a party by the end of their set but we all knew that rain storm was approaching.  So gutted Massive Attack didn't play after the false hope of a new rescheduling, especially knowing that Elizabeth Fraser & Horace Andy were backstage with them!  Managed a bit of Melt Banana but was just so over the weather by that point.   Friday was awesome, Rilo Kiley were so much fun.  Never been the biggest Cure fan but made the effort for them after Thursday & Robert Smith sounds like he did back in the 80s.  PinkPantheress & Viagra Boys were also great.   The highlight for me was Sudan Archives on the Saturday, she was stunning & with the Olivia Rodrigo surprise set too it made up for the Thursday sh*t show.  Dijon & Knocked Loose also superb.   Shoutout to Cardiacs on the Tuesday too, they were so LOUD, played a storming set.    
    • OK, never mind, I'll take normal Nine Inch Nails.
    • Probably my least favourite of the five editions I've been to, but still plenty good enough for me to go again. Weirdly, I was just totally running out of stamina a lot earlier into the night than I remember happening in the past. I feel like I missed a lot of the weirder sets on the smaller stages as I was just totally cooked. Not Primavera's fault, obviously. Maybe I'm just getting old - or maybe I need to pace my drinking better...   Anyway - is David Byrne a realistic get for next year? Certainly hoping so.
    • watching clips of the cure in Barcelona, wow 2 hours 25 minute set. That's gonna be tough on the Sunday but can't bloody wait for it
