Is there a loose pattern to these announcements? If so, the exact opposite of the pattern.

Midnight tonight?

Loose pattern is: every few days...

Edit: what's that opposite of that?  I've no idea

Brilliant

I was expecting it to be revealed minutes after their tweet but unfortunately not

Afternoon announcement maybe? Or still in the morning?

On Friday night, Hot Chip will DJ a set of Prince hits.

Joey Beltram... That's a bit more like it!!

That could be the actual definition of fun.

Argh it says London Underground is now being run by Rinse. There's normally a decent underground D&B line up in there on the Friday night, would be a shame (for me) if it became slightly more crossover with the likes of Shy FX. Don't get me wrong he's still decent enough, but I liked that more niche and deeper sounds were represented in there before by the likes of Calibre, Marcus Intalex, dBridge etc.

Either you'd already read that RA article, @dreader1988, or that was quite spectacular timing.

And yet, that holds no interest for me. I love Hot Chip. I like Prince. I would never dance to Prince. 'We' did. In the '80's. It wasn't pretty, trust me...!

Yeah it would a shame if they lost that side of things, but still some good stuff in there as well. The Bug in there will be great fun.

I expect there will be more names on the actual poster (if we get one) which could give us more names like the ones you've said above.

I dance to Prince all the time and trust me, it's beautiful.

[Brave Sir Robin]

If Hot Chip are there to DJ, they might as well play a set too, no?

I'm only glad that there is space in the world, and at Glastonbury, for all of us, Bradders!

Now, MIDLAND dropping some house-techno genius in NYC Downlow, and you had me at MIDL...

Probably the best year yet for Block 9 field, Honey Soundsystem, The Black Madonna, made up Jo Nathan is playing too, first dj I ever saw at Panorama Bar. Genosys looks strong too, lots of djs i've never seen there, Mike Dunn, Joey Beltram, Dj Deeon to name some. Very happy.

They're around every year in some capacity, aren't they?

And yeah, it sounds fun but I don't think it'll tear me away from Carl Cox

Fingers crossed!

I don't get out clubbing quite so often these days (ie I never go out any more) so I always look forward to getting my fix in London Underground.

[pastorofmuppets]

This has reminded me, in 2013 I was convinced Hot Chip were the secret Other Stage opener because they were all there - Alexis solo, Joe DJing, 2 Bears and New Build played as well I think.

Walked down towards the Other just as the set was starting, when I heard someone shout

"Turn around everyone! It's just some twat pretending to be Liam Gallagher!"

that sounds amazing. 

[sloseph]

i like the idea of the Hot Prince DJ set but I seem to remember lots of people saying the sound in Genosys was jarg last year

Just had word from the Bug that he's not playing - he declined their offer.
