re Portishead and Max Richter. Said Portishead might have an album next year... didn't catch exactly what he said about Max, was non-commital.

Asked if he was pissed off more by Cardi B or Frank Ocean cancellation. Frank by a mile, he is the "artist of the decade".

Lana del Rey: loves the record but not giving anything away re PS.

Laughed off a Q re Enya.

War on Drugs, nothing happening.

4tet - PS Barcelona no but maybe another PS event...

 

What? If Enya isn’t performing Orinoco Flow in full, I’m going to be furious. 

[Andrej]

Lana to headline this.

[Hip Priest]

asked re rumour NIN were booked for 2020 but have postponed til 2021. Said it's true, were in for Bcn, Porto, LA.

Kim Petras: if they could, they would.

as they said before, as it's the 20th anniversary, there will be lots of old faves as well as some classic acts that have never played PS. it won't be all trap etc, far from it.

line up announcement: hoping for first fortnight of December. THINK this is what he said

Does that mean Kim Petras is out?

Please please let it be before Christmas. January lineups always seemed to take forever to come around.

Now I think about it, Primavera lineup day is the new Christmas.

Yeah, it's crazy how giddy I get towards the end of September and we approach PS lineup season. I remember when that 2018 lineup came out in January and I got almost no work done throughout the month because I was on here every day.

Dua Lipa hasn‘t been mentioned here, has she? New album coming out this Friday Nov 1st with no live dates for 2020 announced so far... would fit quite well I think.

it's not an album, just single afaik

[Guy Incognito]

I reckon Travis Scott is likely for this

Fits the demographic at the moment and is apparently lined up for Coachella and Reading+Leeds. In terms of rappers, the only one I could imagine PS wanting anywhere near as much as Kendrick, is Travis Scott.

"Portishead is basically Geoff " - comments Gabi when answering a listener who asked about the possibility of seeing Portishead again at Primavera Sound, "And he comes a lot with Beak>. He is a big fan of the festival. I have some spy out there who has told me that it is possible that next year there is a Portishead record. Some spy I have. So ... Well, if they are fans of the festival, and they have a record ... I don't know if next year or next ... I don't know about plans. Maybe they did venues first and then festivals ... I don't see it that far."

Would you like Travis Scott?

I genuinely like rap and hip hop, haven't been able to get into him. Listening to Astroworld I don't understand the hype. 

 

Was hoping for Kanye but Gabi reckons he's making crazy demands (no surprise)

Not especially, I think he's a lot better than Future though. Likewise I'm a big hip hop fan but those two don't do much for me.

I'd settle for some RTJ. A lot cheaper as well.

Free up more cash for other things.

Yeah fair enough. It wouldn't surprise me to see them back. Tyler the Creator perhaps too. 

With regards to hip hop I'd love any of Noname, Freddie Gibbs and Madlib, Shirt, Your Old Droog, Quelle Chris, Sudan Archives and Death Grips. 

[SwallowOrSleepOnTheWetSpot]

Travis is a much bigger draw than RTJ, and the latter isn't at a level to headline yet.

[Gnarler]

Can someone who knows more than me let me know the likelihood of J.Cole?

[scatteredscreens]

Pinegrove are touring next year. Set of EU dates end 2nd April, no Spain dates.

Probably too expensive for the relatively small amount of people that would want to see him headline.

General info - Gabi mentioned that 5 bands that are classic from Primaveras will be reunited, so you can make your guesses on who they are, Primavera Indie bands. He also said this year he is gonna be extra indie which means basically that forget about 2019 and 2018 lineups cause it's going to be indie again (with some pop urban etc for sure but less than past editions)

From the reddit translation: 

This has got me extremely hyped. Wonder what 5 primavera classic bands will reunite? Slint? The Postal Service? MBV?

 

[Guy Incognito]

Damn that is huge news. Looks like Tyler, The Creator is a certainty?

I would be delighted with any of them. The only other two that came to mind were The Rapture and The Walkmen.

Both good shouts and more likely than mine, I can't see The Postal Service coming back, I was just being very optimistic
