dentalplan Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 That's a well nice lineup. If Spiritualized are across from Groove Armada then the headline options are lovely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuna Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 Not much on the Bjork day that tickles my fancy so might just get real weird and look at some telescopes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I reckon she is. Jane Weaver > Anna Meredith > Bjork seems like a run they'd. Reckon there's still a slot waiting to be filled before Groove Armada though.

Nobody Interesting Posted February 2 Report Share Posted February 2 I am liking how the lineup is very female orientated, makes a change from the normal men all over the place lineups Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxialac Posted February 2 Report Share Posted February 2 On subject of diversity, how many of the musicians on the bill are not white? Think I only found one non-white act from the top and middle names. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xxialac Posted February 2 Report Share Posted February 2 4 minutes ago, the wonderwhy said: Metronomy, BCUC and Lido Pimienta for starters So a band with four men and one woman would he considered a female act? Fair enough though, there was another act I missed in the shape of LP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough though, there was another act I missed in the shape of LP. Weren't you asking about ethnicity? But yeah either way I would say its about representation init, not necessarily X characteristic being the prevailing thing in that band. Normally when those redacted lineup posters are made to show female represntation they'd keep, say, Wolf Alice in even though that band was 75% male (not the best example because Ellie is the lead there but I can't think of a better one off the top of my head). Never very clear cut though is it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never very clear cut though is it. Was making a comparison. Metronomy (one non white person) couldn’t be seen as meaningfully improving the ethnic diversity of a festival in the same way as LCD Soundsystem (one female) wouldn’t on gender. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gilgamesh69 Posted February 3 Report Share Posted February 3 So they've announced a new area which sounds very cool, it's called the Origins Fire Garden. "New for 2022, Origins is a late night fire garden soundtracked by DJs exploring the origins of modern electronic music. Standby for news on each evening’s curators and the very special guests that will soundtrack an extraordinary new experience area at bluedot 2022."

Gilgamesh69 Posted February 3 Report Share Posted February 3 So who do we reckon for the Orbit stage headliners? Spiritualized definitely seem like one. Hoping KLO and Squarepusher aren't against Mogwai though; would much rather they be post-headliner acts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

airwaves Posted February 4 Report Share Posted February 4 Jeez..... £10.25 booking fee PER TICKET. It's just cost us £32.75 IN FEES for 3 tickets + parking. I dont begrudge A fee (well I do a little) but that's daylight robbery AND then to charge nearly £5 to send too, on top Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shoptildrop Posted February 5 Report Share Posted February 5 Really happen they have got Metronomy (personal fav) and Groove Armada (not seen before), plus a few regular acts I enjoy seeing (Henge, Stealing Sheep, Radiophonic workshop, Hannah Peel etc).... need to check out some of the other names I'm not familar with but happy with this lineup.. My other festival is bearded theory who have an awesome lineup this year!! so happy bunny here 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilgamesh69 Posted February 5 Report Share Posted February 5 Spiritualized vs Groove Armada is a tough choice. On one hand, SPZD are one of my favourite bands and I always get emotional seeing them, on the other hand its a friday night and my friends will probably be seeing GA, so like do i really want to be crying when I could be partying instead?? 1 hour ago, shoptildrop said: Really happen they have got Metronomy (personal fav) and Groove Armada (not seen before), plus a few regular acts I enjoy seeing (Henge, Stealing Sheep, Radiophonic workshop, Hannah Peel etc).... need to check out some of the other names I'm not familar with but happy with this lineup..

LittleJon Posted February 22 Report Share Posted February 22 Ten years away from efestivals. As I've got a ticket for Bluedot (great line-up and on my doorstep) I thought I'd pop back and see what's going on here. Looks a bit angsty on first impressions. 😕 Hopefully that is just a blip.
