Farmfest? Look, Farmfest is where it's at man, last weekend rocked.
Heard some of the most classic, roots, reggae & culture (with touch of dub) & later really deep, dancing, awsome, electronic dub. The tent was getting a bit crowded by then, so we edged to the sides & enjoyed the bass from there. Does anyone know is there actually people making, like, Dub musc for dancing, now? Like, long, repetitive, slowish tracks with little or no vocals with a distinctly reggae/dub fell. The rastas spinning definitely had some well crackly old cuts, but the harder, dancier stuff sounded cleaner? I dont THINK he had any CD players, but got the impression these were NEW hard, dancey dub platters? Any ideas where to buy this shit? The Dub Tent DJ's were from Bristol, methinks.
A mate played brilliantly to a tiny crowd (well sad) & the rest of the fest was slightly iffy though there were some cracking little live acts including By The River.
&, not only did it not fuckin rain, but both days were perfect, warm without humidity & the sky was clear as fuck at night. We could see the Milky Way, Dipper, the lot. Stars trippin is WIERD man!
Anyway, peace out nutguzzlers!
