We made sure we sorted moustaches pretty early on though. Think people are forced into the smoking area to get a break from the hotter than hell temperatures inside. Did notice a small shift in the crowd this year, probably due to the coverage given over in RA, Mixmag etc. Got a bit irrate with a group who took over the seating area for their own party and got shirty when I tried to sit down. Didn't want to interact with any other part of the venue. Interesting. So you were using the re-entry lines, even they seemed busy this year. What a shame victim of its own success!

Anyone catch Seth Troxler on the blues on Thursday? I thought he was great but I was quite fucked. Crowds were mental for Seth at the Blues. Sounded good from the sidelines though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deebeedoobee Posted June 26, 2017 Report Share Posted June 26, 2017 London Paranoid were surprising good - Sunday at Glade I think. Nice mid day dance with plenty of room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highlight of the entire weekend was a bloke who was on the Clash Stage before Lisa Mafia (she was absolutely abysmal and I am not sure what she actually did). He was absolutely stunning. He played some kind of dnb/dubstep but was beat juggling and scratching like mad. Not only was he ripping it up, but he had the place rocking as well. It was an utterly superb set and I did not hear one dj all weekend he came any where near touching him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was near the back but specifically came down for a wander to look for you. Was with a group dressed in circus gear if that helps. EDIT: Nah that was the Saturday - Glastonbury memory loss. 4 hours ago, Memory Man said: Interesting. So you were using the re-entry lines, even they seemed busy this year. What a shame victim of its own success! Yeah Saturday night we had a short wait to get in but weren't too bothered as Genosys was just beyond the barrier to provide entertainment. Sunday night was a different matter when they closed both queues early. Told everyone we should head straight after the headliners but it was like herding sheep Edited June 26, 2017 by OBface Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Dickfingers Posted June 26, 2017 Report Share Posted June 26, 2017 Masters at Work, Joy O and Solar were the best sets I saw this weekend. I was proper wrecked at Arcadia for Jackmaster and had a top laugh, I didn't exactly expect him to be splitting the atom there though.

Matt42 Posted June 26, 2017 Report Share Posted June 26, 2017 that run of pearson sound to cab drivers to steffi & virginia in bloc 9 changed my life Pearson Sound took me to another dimension, totally not on this world or this realm.

I had to leave because I was too fucked to even stand in the crowd. the uneven ground was really getting to me. He opened with this unbelievably deep minimal track which i'd like to own Also the crowd was full of very fucked scousers - nice and all but a little alarming Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Memory Man Posted June 27, 2017 Report Share Posted June 27, 2017 So in summary we now have a beefed up temple, better sound at wow and genosys, much better free flowing movement around the SE corner and a better distribution of late night action across the site - almosy everything we were all wanting! Vintage year for us? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The60ftOctopus Posted June 27, 2017 Report Share Posted June 27, 2017 My weekend kind of fell apart, mainly due to my own lack of planning but partly due to the busy crowds. I wanted to see Phoenix and Metronomy, so getting from JP to Shangri La proved to be impossible. Was pretty gutted. Boys Noize on Arcadia were sweet although ended a bit abruptly. Call Super b2b Job Jobse were alright. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt42 Posted June 27, 2017 Report Share Posted June 27, 2017 yeah sunday was shit Saturday was life changing and mind bending though so I guess that's all that matters. Bloc 9 took my brain through space and back so thats all that matters 1 hour ago, Mezhyp1 said: I was not expecting that was so ever from Cab Drivers either, it was absolutely banging they are v v sick, I expected them to be good but they still surprised. I'm a massive fan of minimal techno so it was right up my street. I remember this being dropped and i felt like I was being carried Can we all post some tracks we heard over the weekend? I'm making a playlist on youtube to help me through these times of normality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We ended up in Love Bullets which was ok but then wandered about for a couple of hours in search of good music before giving up. So many clashes the other nights too.

Mezhyp1 Posted June 27, 2017 Report Share Posted June 27, 2017 This is also a tune from probably an upcoming Daphni Fabric mix, that Four Tet/Daphni and now Jackmaster slamming it in to start his set in BBC Introducing.

Haven't got a clue, Four Tet first played it on that radio show, then Jamie XX in the boiler room from iceland, then Hunee/Daphni at Sonar. It is an absolute belter, it's been on identification of music a few times and generally an upcoming Daphni mix sees to be the answer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
