Couple surprise b2b’s then

[Bike_Like_A_Mum]

Loved the Rum Shack last year but probably won't be spending much time there this year what with having the kids in tow. May take them early doors at some point for a wander around the area, you never know.... The surprise set from the beat box collective on Wednesday night during the fireworks last year, they would have absolutely loved and was a fine vibe for families too. But you have to be in the right place at the right time for stuff like that.

Looking forward to ??? but no so much for ???

Pete and Bas

 

Yaaaaaaas

[Skip997]

Any proper genuine old school jungle/DnB in that line up?

[pandahands]

No mention of the waterfall inspired samula or the cave on their page.. only the three venues on the poster.. safe to say it's not coming back?

FB Slim will be one of them.

Annie Mac has said she's playing the festival but no date/time/stage specified as of yet, so if I had to guess I'd say her and FBS b2b could be one of them.

Not reaaalllyy, plenty of "new" jungle and dnb but not much authentic old stuff in that lineup.

30 years of V Recordings will play some.

Altern8 b2b Shadow Child did a "History of Rave" set at Shindig last year but it wont exclusively be jungle/dnb.

After a quick scan through Silver Hayes: Nia Archives is your best bet thus far for authentic new and old jungle.

Ah, yes! That sorts out his personally confirmed set in the Temple.

What about the Mezyard? Brand new venue, I'm presuming...

Do we think there is any chance of a Four Tet/Fred Again.../Skrillex B2B in there?

Some very questionable headliners

Fred Again/Skrillex much more likely than Fatboy Slim/Annie MAC

I imagine Annie MAC would be somewhere on the Glade and Fatboy Slim somewhere in Shangri-La

Just my opinion, don't know 🤷🏼‍♀️

Although a Fred Again/Skrillex b2b would be massive so would definitely be best to keep it somewhat secret

In my experience "new" jungle ain't jungle at all.

I love what I've heard by Nia Archives. There's a couple of others on in SH I'm interested in as well.

I don't think there's any way they would try to do that in the Temple.

Like all secret sets these days, it would not be secret, and the crowd issues of people pouring down to the Temple to try to get in would be a disaster.

(not that I'd be one of them!)

Mezyard was the little bar outside the Temple last year I think? But maybe expanding it to where Cave/Samula was?

Thanks.

I mean, there has to be a third proper venue. You're not going to get all on that poster in just the Rum Shack and the Temple...

Old School, as in foundation? Not much. Bryan Gee doing a 30 years of V recordings (great label) you'll like. Apart from that, that's pretty much it
