Ben I've definitely read he's had problems with some kind of chronic illness before, it's stopped him touring on the past. Not sure if it's related Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Dickfingers Posted May 15, 2019 Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 Hope he makes it to Dekmantel planned on seeing him. Poor guy hope he gets better whatever it is. Does anyone else have really low expectations of Arcadia booking wise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then early evening on Sunday, 6 to 10pm range. I could have misheard but I'm pretty sure Moxie said on her nts show last week that her on loop showcase is the Friday at Glastonbury. Is thisb2b2b in addition to that? She does mention a sass show on 23rd June in a garden in Berlin, which I'm assuming is the garden at berghain, but no mention of the same at Glastonbury Edited May 15, 2019 by GWR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although it has occurred to me that maybe they are blowing all their budget in the infrastructure with very little left for bookings. What makes you say that Tommy? I don't think build budget will influence the line-up. I'm presuming that GFL pay the fees to all artists, so the effect of their traditionally lower fees will have the same effect on Arcadia, rather than a differentially higher one, I'd think. Coxy will play, which is fine and I'll see him if it fits. I've not seen him before but have watched plenty online and always find him to be perfectly fine, if not someone I'd drop lots of other good DJs to get to. TBH, the line-up profile for Arcadia has tended to be themed and quite varied. There 'will' be a DnB-based night. There 'will' be a house/tech-house based night à la Solardo kind of thing. So I'm just holding onto the hope that the global resurgence in good techno, particularly in terms of big genre festivals etc, will convince Glastonbury that the new fiery beast is worthy of at least one night of gods' own dance music...

golden egg Posted May 15, 2019 Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 Whats that bar/stage up the top of The Park field opposite the main stage?

I don't think I really understand that area properly in terms of its 'character'...but I did have fun with Radioactive Man and his quality electro in Jagz's Acid Lounge in 2017...

Tommy Dickfingers Posted May 15, 2019 Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 Who gets booked for an Arcadia Techno night? Probably gonna be your drumcode type stuff which isn’t all that exciting for me personally. I’ve higher hopes of seeing a good techno set at Bloc9. You can’t really put anyone on there who isn’t a massive name can you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinking about it that makes no sense now I've written it down and read it back! Anyway, I'm hoping for at least 1 really good night spent at Arcadia listening to some top tech house. If it is DnB night Sunday then that suits me as I'll be off to the SE corner for the final push. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stonebridge always has a good line up, Bicep and Friends last time our was good fun, goes till 5am and a good alternative to SEC in my opinion, had some very fun nights in there over the years.

Homer Posted May 15, 2019 Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 Arcadia doesn’t really do strictly themed nights (d and b, techno, etc). They normally just mix it up a bit each night Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still think that that Friday is pretty consistent genre wise, and you could argue that the Saturday, (JH aside) has a breaks/DnB theme. I suppose what I’m saying is that, since 2015, there’s not been a solid techno line up!!! Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay89 Posted May 16, 2019 Report Share Posted May 16, 2019 Soooo, how many more dance music spots get their own announcements? I’m slowly getting my must see’s together, happy to see some acts play couple of times during the fest too, as clashes will be unavoidable for me I reckon.

I've already been told that Blawan** isn't coming. I don't need my hopes raised for Cirez D, only for them to be dashed! **on a purely selfish note, and not in anyway failing to sympathise with his problems, I only just remembered that I've booked a ticket for one of the Dimensions tunnel parties with Blawan headlining, so I really hope he's well again by then.
