Was Bengas brother. And yeah, he was absolutely wrecked! Haha, was so funny when he dragged a Psy Trance bird over the railings with him.

Glade was too big as always.

Yes! So funny. I hopped that fece but within seconds this coked up steward woman was screaming at me to get back. ...I wasnt going to argue

So no one caught Eleven8 then? Dubstep with live drums, that was soooooooooo good!

I did quite enjoy Rusko's set - it was cheesy but fun, just right for the last lazy day of the festival before diving full on into headliner manicness I thought!

i have no idea where to start - glade was incredible, those who were there WILL KNOW!!!

Gotta give a mention to squire of gothos - packed out the overkill full of people who im sure had never heard of them before, was a big suprise how incredible there set was.

Seemed like every single tent/stage was firing on all cylinders all weekend....... it was definatly one of the messiest experiences of my life

was much better than i thought it would be had a great laugh bit gutted that i missed so many people i wanted to see play especially king cannibal but there was so much quality music and fun going on - and i had to sleep at some point

also got to say that all the people i met were safe and basically just up for heads down no nonsense raving, i was sat with some mates who were working in the info tent early monday morning and was suprised by the amount of people who were coming in to hand in lost keys, phones, wallets etc. ... didnt really here of much people getting there tents robbed etc. which seems to be the case at a lot of the big uk festivals

yeah channel one killed it.

such a nice sound compared to everything else that went on in that tent on the sunday - i loved the tunes but the production sounded so shit after 2 hours of music recorded through analogue desks, onto tape, and cut to dub...

Did Starkey actually mix or just mash up the faders and the eqs in his headphones.

Must have cleaned up his act since I last saw him in Melbourne, where he pretended to mix for a hour.

i'm not sure what he expected to happen really, i was hoping for that 'face get splat' dubplate by stagga he's been playing on his radio show.. but alas.. he sang with auto-tune instead

I thought Starkey was ace.... he was cutting like he usually does. its nigh in impossible to blend some of the crazy intricate melody's he plays. i thought his mixing was absolutely fine

and the last tune where he sang was great i thought.... some crazy futute rnb slow jam thing > WIN

Glade was great fun.... really enjoyed playing as part of the ruffnek diskotek takeover in overkill on saturday.... Karnival for the win

Haha, that singing tune... it must take balls to do it to be fair, but NOT what I was expecting! Hope his new album is more wonk than R&B. Not sure why people think he pretends to mix? He uses Serato which is still mixing the tunes?

Glade Festival - thoughts?
