They really are appealing to the muzza/nova market with crookers, bloody beetroots, deadmau5 and fedde le grand. I guess that is what sells the tickets but I would have liked to see some more relevant acts.

Still enough there to keep me interested
Alter Ego
Zombie Nation
Miss Kitten
Hudson Mohawk

All those acts are live.

Also love Surkin.

Wouldn't lump Bloody Beetroots with the rest of those shitty acts, and I'm doubtful they would appeal to the nova crowd. but the rest of them yes. massively uninspiring. Saying that i'll probably still go, bloody beetroots/cutcopy djs/Bag Raiders/ Grafton more than enough to keep me interested for a bit. Oh and yeah surkin.

 

[TigerBabe]

Looks like a good lineup.

Definetly going.

 

[Hap Hapablap]

def going excellent line up.

 

[don vito of fitzroy]

Crap line-up. Lots of house/electro DJs. The 2007 line-up was better.

 

[Carl Hooper]

Big fan of Crookers, Beets and Le Grande.

Deffo buying my ticket August 20th..

 

[vapid1]

flipping house music is crap.

needs wayyyyy more trance

 

[Carl Hooper]

Then don't go then, go to your "Trance Energy"...

Trance is for 30yo losers.

I really hate the new Deadmou5 song... So damn slow. I won't be seeing him...

Hope he's on at the same time as the Beetroots or Crookers.

I ain't going - lineup is shite. I'd love to go to trance energy but sadly 50 morons in melbourne decided to OD on GHB and now they ain't coming back and believe me, trance ain't for 30 yr old losers. The top DJ's in the world are all trance DJ's. Paul Van Dyk, Armin Van Buuren, Above & Beyond, Ferry Corsten, Tiesto, Markus Schulz etc.

 

[Carl Hooper]

Haha, thats unlucky.

Fair enough - depends on what you want. I wonder if its coming back to Perth? It was here this year with only a couple of people charged.

Sniffer dogs are killing festivals ffs!

Any ideas on concealment people?

 

[the egg]

Ill be there, don't mind the line-up! I go more for the day out though as i'm not a massive house/electro enthusiast who picks songs apart and claims whether it's good or not.

I just can't wait to be getting f*cked up in the sun with mates and mashing to some good tunes!

 

[Carl Hooper]

No hate towards you but I hate the word mash. Only time I hear it is from cooked out annoying people at festivals/clubs. Just reminds me of the annoying feckers on the happy drug. No offence to you but.

Anyways, yeah your right Egg. I go mainly for the day, how mad is it?

Just go there with a bunch of mates, get f.ckd up on whatever you have scrambled up in the weeks leading and busting out to some mad tunes. Can't wait for the fetival season. WOOP WOOP.

Which song are you referring to as the new one?



FML is awesome.

heat seal a zip lock plastic bag and stuff it in the jocks. i've also heard that odour neutralisers work well

or take acid, much easier to get past the po po

Haha all good mate i use the term in a different context though more meaning to 'hang' with mates. But yeah i'm with you, not a fan of the people who completely fry their brains either. Can't wait for Parklife/Stereo/BDO and anything else that pops up

The hell slow boring one. Remember Me is it?

Have you tried either of those suggestions?

Not a fan of Acid.

Yeah, the fryers tend to be no good for your head when you just want silence and there are annoying sweaty ugly bastards still pingin'. Real annoying.

Yeah, I'm most looking forward to Summadayze, really regretted not doing it last year.

Put it in your hair. Dogs can't smell that high.

Lol, I don't know about that mate.

I do have a mini afro though, so I could actually do it.

 

[omit]

haven't tried either

Now that's a decent lineup. I went to Stereosonic the year before last and it was probably one of the worst experiences I've ever had at an edm event (like 35 degrees, queuing 30 mins for a drink, shocking crowd, dud pingers etc.) and more or less swore myself off the large festivals after that (after a series of progressively less enjoyable experiences at progressively higher prices), but may have to rethink that policy now. Hopefully someone ropes in Carola and Umek for a side-gig, but until then I think I have a dilema on my hands.

Dud pingers? I deffo try before I take them to a festival. I would never go in with untried ones.

I Remember ... I assume thats the one you mean!

 

[Carl Hooper]

I Remember ... I assume thats the one you mean!

Yeah, thats the one. You a fan?

I don't really find it very good, not really into the mellowish sound of that track.

 

[Noppo]

Surprised no one's mentioned Axwell yet, since he's one of the best producers/DJ's around. Saw him at QBH (and didn't get stabbed) and he was amazing.
