I have no useful information to offer you, but Merry Christmas nonetheless Thanks, Sas - and to you too! It’s pretty standard procedure for me, spending less time on here after the dust has settled on Glastonbury. Don’t worry, I look in most days, just to keep an eye on our lovely little thread. Fab to see some keen new posters - I reckon this place will be buzzing as the new year arrives and evolves into pre-50th anniversary mania. I’m so hoping that they pull out all the dance stops for the celebrations! Ben x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben x It looks quite industrial with the pillars and the warehouse feel doesn’t it but still looks quite intimate at the same time. I’ve never been so can’t really help ya but hope you have a boss night in there. All the best mate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zacko Posted December 20, 2019 Report Share Posted December 20, 2019 Got a little night booked at Basement 45 in Bristol on Saturday - 60 or so close mates with us DJing for a pre Christmas vibe. Buzzing! Feeling like playing a lot of Kerri and 90s house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TorontoScot Posted December 20, 2019 Report Share Posted December 20, 2019 Hi everyone! First post, go easy on me 😆. Been giving a lot of thought to who the classic 90's dance band (Chems/Underworld/Prodigy) might be on the Other/West Holts maybe this year. Anyone reckon it might be Faithless? They have announced a gig at a festival at beginning of July and just posted some highlights from their Glasto 2002 set. They were also at the 40th Anniversary. Thoughts?

This is the nicest thread, Scot! So you're very welcome. I'd say that Faithless are a good shout to be somewhere on the Farm next year. Not sure it'll be Other, mind... I think they rarely have dance bands that aren't headlining, and I can't see them headlining Other any more... Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madyaker Posted December 20, 2019 Report Share Posted December 20, 2019 Not sure where faithless would fit this year? Glade maybe??! For gigs I’ve got John Talabot and Mano le Tough supported by Avalon Emerson on the 28th and then a 3 hour Laurent Garnier set on jan 30th which I’m very much looking forward to.

My god that Dublin gig has the best line up I've seen in ages. I've longed to see New Jackson life for so so long Hope it's amazing.

Madyaker Posted December 20, 2019 Report Share Posted December 20, 2019 Yeah 20 quid for a ticket too! The venue isn’t anything as cool as printworks or WHP but it’s fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waltere Posted December 20, 2019 Report Share Posted December 20, 2019 @bennyhana22 E1's a pretty good venue, Had one of my best nights in years watching Todd Terje there late last summer. Worth noting however that the room/space where you enter also has the main bar and toilets so tends to end up heaving and full of bottlenecks. Once you get into the rooms themselves there's almost always space to be found. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Followed this thread for a while now, and have been enjoying some of the recommendations. Mostly fingers crossed for Caribou, Bicep - Live, Deni Sulta and Four Tet to be there next year. In the meantime got a wee 3 night residency from Caribou to look forward to in March and been enjoying this from the Printworks Edited December 20, 2019 by TorontoScot 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boss news this that they’re playing again, dunno where they’d play, late afternoon / early evening on The Pyramid or headlining potentially John Peel? Would love to see them.

jackmerton Posted December 21, 2019 Report Share Posted December 21, 2019 Never commented on this thread, and not an electronic(a)/dance afficionado whatsoever, but I'm wondering if you guys think any of these acts might be at Glasto this year: - Kaytranada - Aphex Twin - Hudson Mohawke - DJ Jazzy Jeff - DJ Premier Also please bare in mind that I only listened to Aphex Twin for the first time about 2 days ago and know pretty much bugger all about him, so not aware if he's been retired for ages or anything so forgive me if it's stupid to ask if he'll be around haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madyaker Posted December 21, 2019 Report Share Posted December 21, 2019 Aphex does what he wants. He did 2 live shows this year which is unusual for him. I don’t think he’ll be at glasto this year. If you’re just getting into aphex you should listen to selected ambient works 85 - 92 and then get stuck into the soundcloud dump. There’s some good playlists on YouTube. This one hits me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackmerton Posted December 21, 2019 Report Share Posted December 21, 2019 Yeah that track is sweet. I listened to a bit of Drukqs while at work and thought it was really interesting, but only got half way through and had to stop for a while and never got back round to it. Thought the opening track was absolutely beautiful so if he has other stuff like that then I'd like to check it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw Giant Swan on the Glade on Sunday this year. My friends had no idea what to expect (and I didn't much)....We kind of stood there, half-dancing, half just listening/staring in awe at the (slightly sexual) spectacle before us. At the end I was like "you liked it...right??", And my friend was like " you know I like challenging music....that was IMMENSE!" More of that please!
