Field day 2017

/mu/ don't attend concerts/buy music newfeg

Was literally about to make this thread after seeing the post about aphex's set getting livestreamed.

I'm getting in quite late so I'm gonna miss a few people I wanted too see.

What kind of music do you like? there's all sorts you might enjoy there

got excited when i saw Kravitz
>Not Lenny
>Nina?
fuck this show

>>73075376
The other act I really wanted to see was PC music and I was curious about slowdive. I'm cruising the set list on the youtube at the moment for picks. I'll like anything really. You have to nose around on the day to find what's really going off though, dont you?

How early am I going to have to get into the Barn to be sure of getting into AT's set?

>>73075406
Come on, she's like the hottest girl in electronic music.

>>73075413
I'm /bleep/ so I'll probably be gravitating towards the barn, bugged out and The Bandstand most of the day. Mike Paradinas is a good friend of Aphex's he used to make music under the name μ-Ziq - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UOxo4B3we8I

Could go see death grips if you wanted to be a meme

Gaika is good if you like that kinda stuff - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qEoRo8rGgVY

>>73075429
I'm gonna try and get in for Nina's set and stay but my friends wanna see a bit of flylo :(

>>73075490
Interesting shit

Anyone else pumped for Silver Apples?

>>73075700
Just checked them out. I am now.

>>73075406
>being this pleb

>>73075234
man. people in this place would really intimidate me. like, i only listen to tears for fears and the police, i'm inferior to them.

>>73075490
>he used to make music under the name μ-Ziq
He still does doesn't he?

>>73075406
She is very talented lad

What is the cheapest why to stay fed and hydrated at this thing? I'm worried that if I bring a bag of nuts or something they'll take it off me so I have to queue 20 mins for a £10 hipster burger.

Never been before, do they tend to have sniffer dogs? Want to toke throughout the day

>>73076333
Probably but he's DJ'ing by his own name there so I just assumed

>>73077095
>No food or drink is permitted into the festival. Only sealed bottles of water up to 1L capacity will be permitted into the event. No other types of drink or unsealed bottles are allowed.

>>73075234

I hope Aphex Twin actually DJs his massive fucking library of music instead of just doing a regular DJ set playing other peoples music.

I want to hear Aphex the producer not Aphex the DJer

>>73075490
godly remix
Paradinas is low-key greatness

troo

I'm going to this, haven't been to any event like this before. What do you think the vibe will be? Will people be doing drugs or nah?

Anyone going to any of the after parties?

I wonder how much Aphex Twin shows are going to be different from one another. Of course interested in listening to his set from NTS but I'm also going to see him at Flow Festival in August tho...

>>73077937
Isn't it a live performance rather than a DJ set? Or have I just misunderstood?

>>73078079
Going to try for kero bonito at the shacklewell, see how I feel when the pills wear off

>>73078108
I'm going to the one in Mangle because it's on til 6am and our train back is at 9, might get some gear in there but can't do pills anymore because i get soul-destroying comedowns

I noticed on the lineup John Hopkins had "dj" next to his name but other artists that dj (Aphex Twin notably) don't. Does anybody know if this means he won't be playing of his own discography?

>>73078808
Jon is known for his live sets where he'll probably be performing his own songs or just making stuff up on the spot, Aphex will most likely just be playing other peoples tracks but probably a bit of his own stuff like he usually does

what do you guys think about death grips?

I can't believe I'm going to see them. They've been my favorite band for like 5 years now.

I heard that sometimes they go really hard but sometimes it's not that crazy. Any idea what songs they are going to play?

>>73079051
I heard them last summer, one of the best shows of my life. Definitely the craziest. Could only recognize about one third of the songs, which spanned from their entire discography. The rest was incomprehensible noise. It was incredible.

>>73079108
that sounds amazing. where was it?

what kind of people where there?

>>73079051
Saw them live just last year. One of the best shows of my life and definitely the craziest. About 1/3 of the music was stuff I recognized spanning their entire discography. The rest was incomprehensible noise. It was awesome. There was a ton of moshing up front too which was fun.

>>73079108
>>73079156
lol, what happened here?

>>73075357
What gave you that idea???

>>73079155
whoops replied twice. Pretty much everyone there was mid 20s male.

>>73079051
Saw them at village underground a few months back, if you are a DG fan you won't be disappointed, such an intense atmosphere

So I've noticed most the artists here are electronic. Are there any other shoegaze bands other than Slowdive playing?

>>73077937
Tbh some of the songs he DJed at Day for Night were better than his own recent works, so I kind of like him as a DJ.

>>73078075
>festival
>drugs

pick two lad

>>73079695
You reckon he will play anything like Xtal or 4?

>>73079800
I doubt it, but taking MDMA or amphetamine and hearing him play Xtal live sounds orgasmic.

>>73079818
it's gonna be orgasmic either way, I just hope the barn isn't gonna be a shit show in terms of letting people in etc.

>>73080145
Apparently his sets gonna last 2 hours so there should be enough time for everyone to see most of it, I really want to see all of FlyLo's set so it will be tight for me

I don't really get it though, shouldn't it there be more hype for this? I mean there are so many good names, it's crazy.

>>73079769
surely they would be searching though

>>73080430
Condom in the bum lad

>>73080430
get a stash lighter or something

Good chance anyone selling inside the festival is plain clothes this year, you've been warned. Field day is super anti-drugs ever since Sydney.

>>73080530
I'm from Sydney and I don't know what you're talking about what happened?

I am going and Come on you cunt lets have some Aphex Acid

>>73079800
Possibly yes. He played Rushup I Bank 12 and Polynomial-C at Texas last year, two of my favourite tracks by him

Even bigger hits incoming for London?

>>73080530
Buying drugs at festivals isn't ideal anyway

Who else is gonna be mangled for aphex?

>>73080530
keep getting dead paranoid that they're gonna do tests before entry.

whats the worst they can do?

drug tests before entry?

>>73080627
yeah boi who isn't gonna be?

>>73080671
>>73080770
They won't do drug tests, thats way too expensive and time consuming, worst case scenario is sniffer dogs

Relax guys when I went field day a couple years back the searching wasn't that bad desu, they did have sniffer dogs though and pulled my mate to the side after he tried to avoid them as he had every drug known to man on him. Didn't find anything as he just cock and balled it

How can we identify fellow /mu/tants without revealing out power levels?

>>73080841
I'll be wearing a pepe t shirt so all my 4chan homies will spot me and know how hip and cool I am

Forest Swords, then Death Grips, Then Jon Hopkins, Then Arab Strap, Then Flylo, Then Aphex Twink

It's gonna be a good day

>>73079353
I saw them there too, I enjoyed the 2 hours of noise they used as a warmup act.

>>73080841

>>73080841

>>73080868

>>73080841

>>73080812

>>73081030

>>73081030
Course not pal, unless they sense your mega high and wanna do a stricter search but I doubt that'll happen

>>73081161
lmao good joke anon

>>73081332
I would email Field Day or ticket vendor

>>73081332

>>73081376
end of last year! They've said they could arrive anytime up to three days before.

Which tracks will Aphex Twin play?

He played Rushup I Bank 12 and Polynomial-C in his last show.

>Crying In Your Face

>To Cure a Weakling Child
>VBS.Redlof.B
