My man Sinkane's new material is grade A.  

Telephone is a fucking party banger.

I got two bars in and concluded already this is awesome.

He was part of my dream afternoon in front of West Holts in 2015

I missed him, unfortunately - maybe due to Lionel Richie.

New Ibibio Sound Machine is also lit.

Would love to see BBNG back on West Holts. They were good back in 2013 but had a few sound issues if i remember correctly?

He is indeed. No Damo Suzuki though.

Or not.  RIP to the motorik maestro.

RIP indeed. A true great. David Bowie's Celestial Band just got itself an incredible drummer.

More octopus than man, an all time king of the beats.

Really upset about this, I can imagine the gig at the Barbican feeling very strange now.

One of the best:

It's a beezer. Reminds me of something, mind - maybe off one of the Thai Funk / Psych Rock / Molam compilations.

These venerable cumbia purveyors just announced for Roskilde.

Please let this happen!

Hmm.....given that Q-Tip headlined it on his jack are they maybe on the lookout for a more prominent slot?

I'm probably more in this boat, I think they could take quite a prominent slot on the other stage, especially with that playing at Roskilde 

Good to see Erasure playing festivals also and not just supporting has beens

[tjamest]

47 Soul at Roskilde. Saw the at Boomtown a couple of years ago and can highly recommend. Early afternoon on WH?

They've played the last few years in other parts of the farm - Small World, Glade, mibbe the Hell Stage IIRC.

[tjamest]

Well i never. I hadn't heard of them before Booomtown 2015. Just checked and saw that they were on Hell Stage this year in the early hours of Sunday morning - well past my bedtime i'm afraid.

Would feel like an odd slot for them to me. Surely Friday Pyramid or a WH headliner. Been struggling badly for a Friday Pyramid hip-hop act so aye.
