[Dirtyacid]

Just been on the site today to see who,s on in the techno tent.
I can see from the list their is:

Marco Bailey

Carl Cox

Christian Varela

Adam Beyer

Ben Simm,s

Trevor Rockcliffe

Jeff Mills

I Think that,s going to be a real weekend I cannot wait :eyes:

[Si the Sigh]

Deffo going to this! Last years was great. Breaks on the Friday and Techno on the Saturday. :cheese:

[Frank Dogshit]

few decent names on there i wouldnt mind seeing but as a festival its pretty average

overpriced with poor soundsystems. spose its good if your with a load of mates and that but for the same cash you could probably head abroad to one of the other festivals.

[marginmaster]

hope they aint wearing their tech-house hats on the day :cheese:

[Dirtyacid]

I hope they ain,t playin tech house neither the only reason im going is for the techno especially Adam Beyer & Marco Bailey!

[Stretch]

It's all about Glade this summer.

looks like a better line up than dance valley anyway :eyes:

[Traxx]

Not as shit a techno tent as it normally is for a change.

[Traxx]

Like dogshit said though its more for a havin a grin with a load of your mates.

[mattboyslim]

sonar all the way. global is for cyber kids and trance bummers

[Traxx]

On the flipside of that coin, sonar’s for chin stroking, stupid haircut loving, big sunglasses wearing tarts. ;)

Not that im arsed either way.

[Aratron]

when and where is that global gathering? i fancy going

[eyeswithoutaface]

just me who think's that's a pretty gash lineup then?

I dont know ive seen worse, these guys are worth seeing:-

Marco Bailey

Christian Varela

Adam Beyer

Ben Simms

not for me im afraid, if it was 5 years ago then maybe but barring Sim's and mill's its just a nice play it safe lineup, no originality whatsoever in that lineup and half the reason why techno just doesnt get the coverage it should over here. No chances taken when big opportunitie's like this arise. Compare it to the Atomic Jam lineup that they had at Global before they stiffed them in favour of Carl Cox, then we'd be getting somewhere

Better off saving money and getting down to either Split, Pressure or Voodoo id say

Nah I do see what you mean there, where is Voodoo and Pressure?

[eyeswithoutaface]

Voodoo is up in sunny Liverpool mate, and Pressure is in even sunnier Glasgow. Obviously a fair hike for yourself being in London but Liverpool isnt that bad a journey at all and a good laugh when there's a few of you, as a few on here will back me up on haha.

The thing with this kind of lineup for me really, well, there's going to be thousands upon thousands of people at this event and ok whilst some are going to see the said lineup, imagine how wikid it would be if there were a couple of smaller djs and even some live acts on there inbetween the big hitters (and some more relevent and "now" big hitters would be nice too) who would potentially have thousands of new fans to win over. It's just a great opportunity squandered in favour of wheeling out the same old same old.... imagine the potential if people who did these events put name like i dunno, Luka Baumann or Iniigo Kennedy or Jerome Hill or whoever on inbetween the old yella's, i think it would do alot more to win new fans over and get people into the other side of techno as it were alot more than people think

[Si the Sigh]

It's a line up that appeals to a wider range of people IMO. I'll deffo be there, theres some great DJ's, not as diverse or underground as it could be, but a damn fine line up all the same.

Reckon you want a bit of both new talent and some old faithfuls. Either way im doing Sunny Barcelona instead followed by a wee bit of I Love Techno in the fall - BRING IT ON :cheese:
