Totally agree with you there Mr MANASYt, was very disappointed with the BBC coverage. Have to say that your set was tremendous, my personal highlight of the weekend. I was in heaven when you dropped Bioport! Please come and play in Manchester soon...

ok- cheers. yes he was probably my fav act of the weekend. & I'd never heard of him before!
I forgot to add in D'arcangelo. They did this one tune about 40 mins into their set. If anyone knows what it was called & how I can get hold- that would be most appreciated.
I would describe it almost as electro pop. But it had proper uplifting chord sequence. MASSIVE.

again agreed, way to much dubstep in the breezeblock special, considering most of it was dj sets. still props to mary for getting involved
