Anyone else feel like this year the festival has gone double heavy with drum and bass and baseline? A hopeful thought of mine is that they announce Carl Cox, Jamie Jones, Patrick Topping etc at The Glade but overall I’m incredibly disappointed. 
 

That being said I am looking forward to Más Tiempo

Friday at The Levels in Silver Hayes looks like House all the way

You clearly haven't seen fatboy slim 

Haha okay exception here. I saw his set at the gas tower last year which i know was all diff stuff but in a lot of soundcloud mixes ive listened to he normally incorporates at least samples of his own tracks

I have a question, as I don't really get to watch many DJ sets throughout the year... do they have a standard kind of set list for a set like arcadia or will they just go rogue? Whenever I make the effort to see DJs I like at festivals they end up doing a load of random stuff and it's not what I expect. What am I missing?

Like...Shy FX has some of my favourite songs of ALL TIME up his sleeve. But how likely is it that he's gonna actually do them...? I wanna hear the bangers!!

 

Pretty sure I saw Jackmaster play Darude - Sandstorm on the spider one year!

Would be good to see some more fun party type sets rather than the serious business techno types i have seen there in recent years 

[MadDog29]

Not a great line up, lots of DNB by the looks and maybe some old school dubstep from plastician. Although playing with chloe robinson i wouldnt expect much. 

Dr Banana, Floating Points b2b Daphni and Sherelle would be something i could be tempted to, maybe even Skream b2b Interplanetary Criminal and of course Chemical Brothers.

Will have to see how all this clashes with the rest of the stages, as im still waiting to see glade line up and block 9 which usually entice me a lot more.

I’d go see VTSS if i’m in the area (as i’ll most likely have to miss her set in Silver Hayes on Thursday), but will wait to see when she’s on and who else is on before/after

Chemical Brothers likely to clash with headliners, or be after?...

Good luck hearing anything from afar at Arcadia.

[D-Low]

Does Skream need a third DJ set? Could they not have booked someone else? (I know he does different styles).

Oh I'm aware. When I say 'afar', I'm not talking Pennards; there's always room somewhere.

Who knows, maybe they'll sort the sound..

[Crazyfool01]

Chems definately Friday ? Sorry lots to catch up on today

Probably the best option. Shame it's the wrong direction I need to go in for my post headliner shift though!

[FuzzyDunlop]

VTSS... I might watch her. Easily my favourite on the line up there.

[Suprefan]

So the saudi money spider is allowed to return. 

[TorontoScot]

ELKKA confirming on Twitter she's playing before the Chems on Friday.

You can go diagonally down Pennards to the railway line and then double back?

Skepta will be special after seeing a few videos this week.

 

but that’s an atrocious line up 

Do you have any of those links to Skepta DJ-ing that you could post please?

Cant seem to find any apart from him rapping?? Will be interested to hear what kind of "house" he/they will be playing. 

 

Cheers
