He is a massive Carl Cox fan, which goes down well with me to be honest Bumped into Dan in 2017 by the Pyramid Stage watching Chic, he was having a great time dancing away.. had a little chat with him, seems a top bloke and always has time for people. My mates sat next to him in a cocktail bar in Ibiza one year and he ended up on a night out with them! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope she’s on properly late one night could be one for the ages. Was hoping someone would return was their thoughts on this. She's absolutely brilliant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soundcloud? I think the massive Spotify playlist for this forum just uses the top tracks produced by the artists. Taking nothing away from it because it’s a thing of sublime effort and beauty (and still v useful for live electronic acts). But a lot of the excitement on this thread is about DJ sets so it’s not an ideal way of getting to know new names. I’m always personally quite surprised about the difference between the styles of what a DJ produces and what they DJ live (even taking in to account the need to move/read a crowd when DJing). Anyway, I’m really interested in trying to crowd source a list of recent-ish sets from the line up to help me get to know some new names. There’s already quite a lot of sharing happening in this respect on this thread so maybe it’s just a question of cross posting to a google doc whenever someone has got a set to share? I’d love a single playlist but I feel like what’s available is always spread across soundcloud, Mixcloud, YouTube and others so it would be a bit of an impossible task. What does everyone think? I’d be happy to set up the doc and put a few mixes in to start the ball rolling if you’re up for it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My level of preparation for artists that perform their own songs is greatly improved by the ease of the Spotify playlists (overall and by stage) but DJs I struggle to know where to start.

hmmmloddy Posted May 7, 2019 Report Share Posted May 7, 2019 Alright, here's a quick stab at somewhere to share and discover sets (mixing not live production) from DJs on this years line up. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1BzyCqFTgA8W64VGxlTA-ctmum77HUPvjltC8MJ8K0uc/edit#gid=0 Added a couple myself plus a handful from recent pages on this thread. If any of you have really strong recommendations and good example sets to share, stick them in here. I'll also pull stuff from the forum across from time to time if it's missing. PS, I don't have the time to 'admin' this properly so if you see a problem, an error or an opportunity to improve then feel free to edit it. Hopefully this gathers enough momentum to help us all discover some new acts and doesn't just gather dust / tail spin in to a debate about genres ? 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubick Posted May 7, 2019 Report Share Posted May 7, 2019 Apologies if this is a regular query on the thread - but what's the history (if any) of Andrew Weatherall playing at the festival? He's one of the few DJs I'd still make an effort to go and see when he's over here - especially his partnership with Sean Johnston and their A Love From Outer Space nights they put on across the UK and Ireland. ALFOS would be a perfect evening in The Glade or tucked away in Block9, pure filthy downtempo acid house! Has Weatherall played the festival in recent years? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great idea, added a Jayda G (If I had to only recommend one it would be her! incredible disco funk vibes!!), also Peggy Gou and Artwork.
