Was a slow burner for sure. I definitely danced and had more fun at other sets but this and especially the ending was just incredible. Also the timing was just about perfect for me 😊

Loved the run of Leftfield>FBS>Hauff>Avery on Saturday night.

Biggest surprise was Arielle Free on Glade. Only saw her because was were walking past on Thursday and it was great fun!

I wasn't minding it, but definitely on the drifting, dubby, beatless side to begin with, so the team d@bbed it down quite quickly.

Same thing happened next night at Four Tet.

Yeah we sacked off Four Tet after 20 mins or so.

I love him and know his sets tend to build, but we weren’t feeling the slower vibes so moved on to Salute @ Nowhere then The Blessed Madonna @ Genosys 

Both were stormers 

[CaledonianGonzo]

I think we ended up in Annie Mac.....? Does that sound right?  Bit hazy at that point.

[catavento]

Another vote for Helena Hauff, I would have stayed longer for Daniel Avery but I was suddenly out on my feet just as he was going through the gears. The sound on Lonely Hearts was great too, so crisp, that really helped.

If you were in Nowhere then yeah.

It was Salute, Annie And Blessed Madonna doing the Essential Mix from there.

Job Jobse b2b Palms Trax on the levels went off

Thanks. Yes. I think that's definitely what went down.

[Fishman]

Helena Hauff is the correct answer.

[WarlyBarly]

Salute is one awesome dj and things will only get better for him. His b2b with dj boring was perfect Sunday afternoon vibes.  Def one of the stand out sets for me.

[Harry3]

I didnt really see any DJ sets which blew me away.

Main Phase b2b Bakey was so packed it was hard to actually dance.

Booty Bass at Firmly Rooted on the Friday night was probably my favourite set.

Haai at San Remo on Friday was my favourite.

FBS at levels was fun though, I wont lie.

Caught that somewhere (Nowhere?) On the Thursday night and enjoyed a lot.

Yeah he was great. 

Saw him at Nowhere and his b2b with DJ Boring.

Both a lot of fun.

Absolute belter, everyone bouncing.

The lovely thing about the Temple is that you can get above the crowd and really see everyone dancing.

[themunn]

Thursday - VTSS at Levels

Friday - Chemical Brothers

Saturday - Helena Hauff (though I got there 30 mins late as I thought it started at 1, doh!)

Sunday - Daphni at Levels

[HotChipWillBreakYourLegs]

Only got to see some on the Sunday as late nights are rarer these days, and there's other late night stuff than djs.  But what I did see I enjoyed.

Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs in the Glade.

Romy in the Stonebridge,

Followed by I. Jordan.

Then the festival was over 😭

Edit:  if you count Wheel of Four Tunes on the Thursday at Sensation Seekers stage - great fun.

I had the best time in the Temple this year.

Someone caught me after tripping on the steps Thursday night and they were so nice about it. I repaid the favour by catching a few people on Sunday night. For me, it was all smiles, hugs and looking out for each other. Absolutely lush 😊

Best vibe I encountered all week, along with the Mez Bar.

I've long suspected The Common is the best part of the SE corner, this year confirmed it.
