Get her to the spider, or at the very least Genosys. I'd been hearing a few people being very sniffy about her but she really nailed it at WHP.

I'd been hearing a few people being very sniffy about her but she really nailed it at WHP. Yeah, I've heard some less than kind comments too, but I don't know why. I guess it depends on what floats your boat. From what I've seen of her online and now live, she is exactly my kind of artist. I barely recognised a track on Friday, but everything blended beautifully and it was a seamless, magical 2 hours for me. #teamgetninatothespider2017 Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's that all about?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Main room was definitely way too packed for Four Tet but to be honest he was disappointing anyway, we went and saw Black Madonna instead, who was great. Floating Points was up there with my favourite ever live sets and Nina Kraviz was great. Funny you say that, I thought Four Tet outdid even himself on Saturday at WHP and reckon it's the best DJ set I've ever seen. Leon Vynehall and Black Madonna were also outstanding. Night was definitely oversold but it didn't have much of an impact on my night, I thought the venue was great.

TheBurns Posted October 24, 2016 Report Share Posted October 24, 2016 Whats the whp like to get goodies inside? I know its not ideal but we're flying over that afternoon and don't know anyone in Manchester. I was there a few years ago and got some fairly handy but I'm hearing they've upped security.

How was the sound/volume on Genosys this year? If it was anything like previous years, I wouldn't want her anywhere near that thing during the dark hours.

Travelling back up from London this Friday for Bonobo and Jon Hopkins I think if the crowd had been a bit less rammed I might have stuck with Four Tet and enjoyed more of it (I know he played his Opus remix later in the night and I think I heard him playing Functions on the Low when I went to the toilet at one point) but I thought the first 15 or so minutes were very repetitive and a bit dull. I'm sure he was building up to something great but it was hard to get into it when you could barely move. I only saw the last 20 minutes of Leon Vynehall but I agree it was great, Music Sounds Better With You went down a treat. 20 minutes ago, Untz said: How was the sound/volume on Genosys this year?

bennyhana22 Posted October 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2016 I was at Genosys this year until about 3.30am Sunday and 5am Monday, finishing my festival there. The sound was bloody bang on. I might have had it very slightly louder but I may be remembering that incorrectly! Clarity was fantastic for Seth on the Sunday night in particular and the whole package was brilliant for me. When they really started messing with the light contrasts and projections on the stick out 'rooms' my scrambled head and ears were about as happy as they could be. Hope there's at least one class techno night there next year. My ideal - one fab night each at Genosys, Shangri-La (LOVED Lovebullets this year...) and the spider...

Ben Also finished my festival there and it was incredible, the visuals were like nothing i'd seen before. Sound system was pretty good as well but couldn't compare it to the previous year because I wasn't there. Looking back I wish I had caught Bicep on the Thursday night.

shuttlep Posted October 28, 2016 Report Share Posted October 28, 2016 I love Genosys, its really coming up in my estimation, The Glade has always be the best place,, but I have spent a few Friday afternoons at Genosys and also watched the Hot Chip tribute there. it was busy but still awesome. Friday afternoon is like a tradition now all down to Genosys to have a dance in an empty field listening to someone you have never heard of. Lats year it was Timmy P. Never heard of Timmy P before but it was a fucking good Boogie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We spent about half an hour there late on the Saturday last year, the music wasn't great to be honest but can imagine it being banging with the right person playing. Gutted I missed Carl Cox there, the sound system would have been brilliant. Took a wander round block 9 around 6pm on the Sunday. According to the line up it was Josh Caffe that was on, was good for an early evening dance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given what you've said already, LSF, you'd have loved Dubfire:Live Hybrid on Glade on Sunday night this year. Sound was incredible and some ace, pounding techno.

grgcmnng Posted October 28, 2016 Report Share Posted October 28, 2016 Marquis Hawkes and Red Greg have both got good house/disco mixes on resident advisor - might be good places to start.

When we got there is was kind of like just tech house/techno but was sick, don't think there was many of his own stuff played until near the end when he played 2-3 of his own songs No Open Eye Signal unless he played it in the first 30 minutes of his set Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
