I’m really excited about this lineup. The only fault I can see is there are quite a few repeat performers, but whatever. I don’t actually consider that a fault myself, just the only one I could sorta see. Here’s some peepz I’m really excited about:
Aardvark – Hope they put him on in the day somewhere. Could really dig that
Amp Fiddler live – the best act of last year makes his triumphant return!
Claude Young – finally!!!
Danny Krivit – duh
Derek Plaslaiko – word
Madlib and PBW ft Jay Dee – OMFG hip hop gone wild!
Malik Alston Painted Pictures – should be very tasty, anyone know what the Painted Pictures thing is all about?
Mike Geiger – impeccable selection every time I’ve seen him so far
DJ Nova – [313] old timer gettin’ his due. He seriously rocked a party with TP at the first DEMF and his radio shows were the bomb
Duplex Live – anyone seen Duplex live before?
Fat Freddy’s Drop – see my other post
Francois K – duh
Joris Voorn live – I hear nothing but great things
Kai Alce – Excellent. Not many other opportunities to see him yet
Kelvin Larkin – He rocked Iowa City about 5 years ago. Expect very good things
Kenny Larkin – He rocked Liverpool recently
Mike Grant – Hope he gets a chance to rock out in the sunshine for a hometown crowd
Mike Huckaby – ditto
Osunlade Live – Holy crap has he even done this before???
Recloose – Hope he gets some monitors this time
Red Nose Distrikt – Been looking forward to seeing them (or is it ‘him’ now) for quite some time
Rolando – He rocked Plzen recently
Ron Trent – One of my top 5 favorite house DJs
Sean Deason – More [313] timers doin’ good. 🙂
Stacey Pullen – Was much more on-form when I saw him last than he has been since ’97
Tortured Soul Live – Like Kent said
So who else should I be excited about? I know very little about Ellen Alien or Legowelt except that I trust many people who rate them. Am I imagining it or did Kevin Reynolds used to work for Transmat? Has he done something else too? Is Heiroglyhic Being at all related to Del? Is Rockid the business then? All these folks ring a loud bell too, but I dunno why.
