I generally have very little to contribute on this thread and I just know that Chalmers and Benny will nod politely and humour me when I do dip in, but having only relatively recently discovered that I like electronica way more than I thought I did I'm probably in a similar boat.

I've discovered a big love for Etherwood and London Elektricity, both drum & bass but very melodic. Etherwood in particular is very chilled.

 

Call me Garry.

And you're always welcome in here. Love the Liquid DnB, do you? Nice. Who else do you like?

Made a playlist from the helpful list above as I don’t really know where to start either so put the ones I could find into a Spotify playlist. 
 

If anyone’s got anymore I’d be happy to add. 

Cracking playlist here, given it a follow! 

some potential additions

underworld - Rez 

Luvstruck - Southside Spinners 

Space Cowboy - Jamiroquai (Morales Mix)

Fluke - Groovy Feeling

Haven't explored it as a genre beyond that tbh! Like most stuff (and as people have picked up on me from here) I can dip in and out of a lot of stuff,  bit of a magpie. In electronica terms I'd pick out Lane 8, Jon Hopkins, Kolsch, Palmbomen, Hiro Ama, Floating Points, Bicep, Caribou. Also have a soft spot for euphoric trance type stuff, but that's mainly from gym playlists.

Make of that what you will 😂

Rej- Ame 

The Time is now- Moloko Francios K vocal mix 

The Cure the Cause- Fish go deep

Make the world go round - Sandy B 

Deep inside- Hardrive

Some of the regulars will be able to contribute a bit more techno, I've just gone for entry level house classics and a few choice rave/jungle/breaks, atm. In all honesty though, there are literally thousands of incredible records. I'll chuck a few more in from memory (some of these won't be on Spotify but they'll be on YouTube):

Justice - Alakazam!

DJ DD Hass & X 10 CIV - Hi Tec Muuusic

Intense - The Genesis Project

Foul Play - Being With You

The Invisible Man - Twisted

Adam F - Circles

Hackney Hardcore - Dancehall Dangerous

Felix Da Housecat - Silver Screen Shower Scene (Thin White Duke remix)

Sylvester - Do You Wanna Funk?

Henry Saiz - It's Not Over

Tong & Rogers - Where's the Music Gone?

Firefox - Buck Rogers

Cirez D - On/Off

Q-Project - Champion Sound (Alliance remix)

Gat Decor - Passion

Athema - Nebula II

DJ Hazard - Mr Happy

Nox Vahn & Marsh - Come Together

Underworld - Two Months Off

Brodinski - Let the Beat Control Your Body

Top Cat - Request the Style (Special Request remix)

Kolsch - Left Eye Left

Hmmmm, I reckon you'd like some of the Anjunadeep stuff, then. Here's a set I rinsed good and proper a while back that you might enjoy.

Ta, something to watch later!

Part of me is tempted to just try to hang on to @bennyhana22's coat tails for a night and see what I discover.

Apart from blisters. Definitely blisters.

Woah, woah! We're an inclusive, equal opportunities, non-judgmental music snob collective in 'ere!

Seriously though, just bowled over by how the thread has caught fire this year. Given how many proper ravers there are at the Farm, I've always been surprised at how small the group is in the thread, tho I know there is a lot of (very welcome) lurking. Most people on here are much more knowledgeable than me, I just love this scene with toddler-like excitement. All are welcome. Especially you, lovely boy.

Still just in awe of this. Remember the first time I heard it, at one of his Brixton all-nighters*, and it felt like it went on for half an hour.

 

*Pretty sure I got my ticket off of someone on here? @Tuna, perhaps?

Yep think so! You have a better memory of that night than me though, don't think I remember hearing this at brixton ever 😬

Can we put Little Fluffy Clouds by the Orb in there?  Seems like a must have if we're covering the classics.

I've always loved this - just for how bonkers it is:

 

I was at home after work on a Friday, Annie Mac on the radio, this had just been released and was her tune of the week and I just got lost in it and loved it. Mrs SBK walks in from the car having just had exactly the same experience listening to it on her way home. For something so mundane it was such an amazing experience that will stay with me forever. It’s some fucking tune.

Nice...he's done some cracking remixes over the years, I reckon.

After playing this out for a while, he's finally cleared the sample for this banger. Expect to hear it on several dancefloors over the summer:

 

Been hoping he'd release this ever since hearing it on his Lost Village set. Hell of a track. Thanks for this one

New EPs released today by both Marlon Hoffstadt AKA DJ Daddy Trance & Krystal Klear

https://marlonhoffstadt.bandcamp.com/album/moments-of-extasy-mt014 

https://krystalklear1.bandcamp.com/album/connect-ep

Pretty sure Marlon is all booked up but would love to see Krystal get a good spot on the farm

If not, would be more than happy if anyone plays one of these tunes while I'm in the vicinity ☺️

Personally I think you’d be better off just listening to some sets on YouTube/soundcloud etc than making a playlist of songs to start with. Boiler Room/Dekmantel are always good 

I have to agree with this. Here’s a few of my favs (most of which will be at the festival) that I think would be good to someone trying to get a handle on what to expect

    • Another note, if I didn't mention the food in the arena for main stage is right at the back. Bands wise they do very well for but as a festival so far they pros are outweighed quite heavily currently for me.
    • On another note for RIP as an event, there is some good things but there are so many things people going to UK festivals would hate and how far behind they are.  Consistent network and water, beer and pretzel like food is brought around to buy in the crowds. Topping up on the wristband is good. The camping and food arrangement is not good, you really need cooking kit. Water points inside the arena are bonkers, water points in camping are a faff unless you are close enough in general camp. Merch stands are crazy. You MASSIVELY need to think about your lidl shop for camping and try and do it so you've one stop. It's definitely worth it getting to a camping shop here, picking up a rolley between your mates and stacking it for the walk back....lidl is cheap though, not hard getting in but Thursday queues getting in and into the camping is mad. You have to register first for a wristband as well leaving any bigger bags behind so pull to a side if only two and do it separately. I was joining a WhatsApp group for solo camp so went with the flow but I've learnt. Had it been me or just two my tent would have been down much quicker.  Big final note, I got a fresh and black 3 man from decathlon before coming and put in bigger suitcase with my airbed and sleeping bag...do this. Take a smaller option for your clothes. If you go to Munich first, book your train to Nuremberg as far in advance as you can....very important!....it hikes crazy. Probably bettee overall for baggage sizes to do BA both ways but you do then need to go back to Munich after too. Use the B&B hotel hbf the night before....its very nice, comfortable, cheap and within 10 minutes of the station which also serves as a transport stop 15 minutes from the registration.  Get up literally like 5am with everything back the night before, shower and go. Transport is free anyway for festival ticket holders during the duration.  Would I just choose to travel in each day and back to a hotel?, on the basis of sleep and getting accommodation cheap enough for 3 nights i might just do especially if I picked the ticket up early enough. It doesn't feel like a festival in a normal sense....unless you are in general yoi have to exit on the paths outside the camping to walk down and in which also applies for getting water so have a stock up. Toilets are in the camping.
    • Yup and they aren't cheap   Glastonbury is different though, it's a place that will pack out for rarities they don't usually see. Download strictly speaking shouldn't be the strangest place for Avril to pop up of she had been a touring artist of longer times over the years.   Avril and GC would get the same billing for me and GC are selling arenas out quicker than Avril sold Ally Pally. Bearing in mind she'd pnly done soem Brixton dates before.
    • Avril gets above GC on rarity (see Cypress Hill this year). She drew in something like 70,000 at Glastonbury, so much so that they had to close the field off. I’d wager that she would get the biggest crowd of the entire weekend if she was to play DL.
