Yeah it was very packed. Too packed for me - I bailed after a few tracks
into the other room. I thought BoC were cool - pretty minimal and the drums
sounded a bit too heavy so you missed the textures but some great tracks
(two off the new EP).
No-ones mentioned Plaid - they were the highlight IMO. Lots of varied
tracks, most of them new. The track with the people shouting in it was
strange and delightful. Unfortunate crash near the end.

It was pretty mental. First track was amazing - lots of experimentation but
because there was a regular beat, it had a good structure from which to
build. The following tracks were all over the place. Mad sounds but trickier
to follow. Bizarrely, the set sounded better over by the toilet block.

The Skam room was playing some hard shit - some good, some bad. I was
hearing lots of DSP'd beats but really simple drony basses and other sounds.
It would've been nice to hear attention on areas other than the kick drum -
that was probably the rig though, had some meaty bass on it.
