Dance Stage line-up

[TheSeventhOne]

According to NME;

Dance Stage

Roots Manuva

Magnetic Man

Metronomy

Four Tet

Chiddy Bang

Holy f**k

Health

Japanese Popstars

Lights

Rusko

Sub Focus

L’Amour Lamorgue (Leeds only)

Nothing amazing but Four Tet, Health and Holy f**k are great additions. Will check out a fair few of the others too, clashes permitting.

[hombrederayo]

Thats pretty poor tbh. I was hoping for something really good, but that doesnt inspire me at all.

Holy f**k are always at Reading it seems, is that Reading Festivals idea of dance music?!

Roots Manuva is a legend fair enough, and I've heard good things about chiddy bang, but theyve only just released their 1st single.

I'll see sub focus and rusko, but not really heard of the others tbf. Any chance of having some more established acts, or is the issue that they are all at Creamfields that weekend!

[Fozzy_Bear]

Rusko and Sub Focus

Rest are a bit uninspiring but those two should make up for it.

[XrtVra]

I don't like this much at all tbh

Glad about Magnetic Man and Four Tet, and I might watch a few others.

[hombrederayo]

Just been googling some of the ones I'd not heard of.

I like Japanese Popstars from what I've heard on myspace, and Metronomy sound pretty good too.

Ok maybe I overreacted, its not too bad. There's just nothing other than subfocus (esp if he does his live set) that really grabs me.

[XrtVra]

Rusko and Subfocus are DJ sets

[philly_eds]

Rusko, Sub Focus and Magnetic Man for me then. the rest not too sure about..

[Role Model]

interested in seeing Lights, Health and Four Tet. so yeah not too bad i guess.

[rockinthecasbah]

Anyone know who Metronomy are likely to clash with?

Quite happy with that lineup, and may end up at Roots Manuva if the FR headliner's not to my taste. Gone right off the idea of seeing Blink recently.

Anyone else realise that l'amour la morgue (leeds sat) alter ego to ian watkins from lostprophets is playing on a different day to lostprophets (leeds sun) themselves?

Just realised there only on at leeds.

Lostprophets playing reading friday

Japanese Popstars are excellent. Somedecent acts but nothing that really stands out IMO like Vitalic and Deadmau5 last year. I'll probably go see a few acts anyway.

[Englishdragon]

Only act I really want to see is Rusko and its going to end up clashing with Blink i think.

Nothing better than making your ears bleed with sick Dub:)

[wheres the mudfight]

really uninspired by this, primarily cause I've not heard of most of it, I guess any reccomendations for someone that likes Breaks/Electro/Funk/house when it comes to dance? sorta plump DJs, 2manyDJs, Vitalic, Steve Bug, Roger Sanchez etc.

[wheres the mudfight]

just listened to the top 4-5 (or bits of them) apart from Roots Manuva who I know. pretty much none of it is dance? might be better live. f**k it, I'll go and stare at Hayley Williams instead

ooh, just found Japanese pop stars - that's more like it I like!

[wheres the mudfight]

Think your going to be disappointed then

Rusko is one of the top dub-step djs

Magnetic man is a collaboration between 3 dub-step djs

Sub Focus is drum and base - Think there getting the same kind of push that chase and status got last year

and thats about it for what I know of the top half

Health are great, not dance but great anyway.

[choadus]

subfocus will be as said before a DJ set so not brilliant, and not really much going on here sadly. Shame Digitalism couldnt play again, or Matrix and Fururebound
