Has anyone met anyone who’s been to a chroma set and thought it was genuinely brilliant? I know loads that were like “it was alright” 

 

im not convinced the faster tempo they play suits their own tunes and im not convinced they know how to craft a set of other stuff. 
 

As producers I think they are amazing and love live Bicep shows also. 
 

But not convinced with Chroma sets. 
 

Happy to be proved wrong 

 

 

 

Agree It's not a patch on their 'live' show, Glastonbury a few years back is hard to beat. I feel they've also overexposed their chroma show...seems they've played relentlessly which takes the value away from it

Really nice gesture - hope someone was able to use them. Only just seen your post as I'd have taken them but we managed to get some off Ticketswap for a tenner anyway.

Third time at Drumsheds and was another really good day. Got in at 2 and just about managed to get past the over-zealous dog handler (he made a point of bringing it over to me to have a sniff). Was a good, slightly older crowd present and the atmosphere was friendly throughout. Moved around the rooms for the first couple of hours until Braxe and Falcon came on. Had only intended to watch the first half but it was so much fun that we stayed for the whole hour. Forgot my earplugs and found the sound in Y to be bit of an issue at times. We were right at the front and there was an delay during B&F as the sound was ricocheting off the fixtures or something. It got better towards the end but was then quite muddy during Octave One. Might be to do with having live acts and their set ups but did seem quite inconsistent during the day.

Caught the last hour of 2manydjs and Erol Alkan and they were great. No surprise the styles complemented each other perfectly and was a nice touch from Erol to finish with the Soulwax remix of Justice 'Phantom Pt II'. Went into Z a couple of times during the day (was my sons favourite room) but there was a massive queue for Busy P so we went between Modeselektor and a bit of Slam before the Chems. Thought it was a decent set that got better as it went on. Tom seemed to be doing most of the leg work with Ed as the hype man! Agree with the comment about them dropping snippets of their tunes - the drums from 'Star guitar' featured a couple of times but they then played it just before the end.

Found everything easy to navigate and all our travel went smoothly so was a successful day! Read a Mixmag article with one of the Bugged Out founders and he said they're working with Drumsheds on a Spring show. Think they will have to bring in a big live act (Underworld?) as the size of the place means you have to stack the line up to get enough people in. For their brand, the Chems are probably the biggest DJs they could book so that only really leaves live acts to draw a crowd in. This didn't sell out and neither did the first one last year so it's a tough venue to crack.

Both years sold fairly well - i know it was like tenner tickets day of, but it was pretty full.

 

Underworld definitely make sense. Chems live at some point too soon hopefully!
