For me:
Alex Smoke. Because: it was the first bit of techno I think I'd heard all weekend that didnt go THUD THUD THUD THUD, there was a bit of soul and groove to it, it was the perfect way to get into gear for the Saturday night.
Plastician. Because: I was never a big fan of the grime sound, found it slightly cheesy at times but he had a great selection and mixed it in with the heavier, atmospheric dubstep, and really had me locked into it. Excellent mixing, and man - that fuckin seriously sketchy tracksuit. It was a shame to be flitting back and forth from this to Rhythm & Sound.
After that - its all a blur.
Note to self: Stop drinking so much.

Kronos Device - Never really been my kind of sound on wax, but live? 'KIN 'ELL! Made all the better by Si popping down to say hello and asking 'does anyone know how to work the kit, cuz I ain't got a clue!', thought he was joking til I spotted Phil mouth 'don't touch that' mid-set Anyone else spot K1's transfixed stare from behind the curtain? Fuck yeah almost forgot - Kool Keith in the centre of the dancefloor, getting down to KD after his set... or were Mum & Dad *really* that good to me???
Michael Forshaw - First time I've seen Mike play and all I can say is the funny cunt could entertain the crowd even without the music. About time someone took the pretense out of techno. Dan(?) MONOX's appearance almost blew me off my feet. Talk about shift in bass dynamics! SHIIIIIT!
Rob Hall - For playing Keynell 4 at EXACTLY the right time. Probably the most understated, subtle mix of the whole weekend. Perfect!
Honorary mentions to:
Rebel Intelligence (esp Si - 'You ain't seen me, roit!' ) - Missed their main set, but stirling DJ support keeping the floor moving between acts. Well done guys!
Radioactiveman - What a way to end the weekend!
