i'd phone up distinctive and demand a free download of the mp3 version if i were you

Oh bugger. Well, if it's not there by the time I get back tonight I'll give them an earful of my mouth.

mine still hasn't arrived :evil: so much for the benefits of ordering early from the label. so i pirated it earlier to keep me going until distinctive or royal mail, as appropriate, pull their finger out. but i wanna hear the secret track :P Glad it's not just mine that hasn't turned up...not that ...

I think the new designs are fantastic. The reason the Transformers looked like chunky children's toys in the 80s was because they were chunky children's toys in the 80s. Twenty years on and they are getting a dark and sinister make-over, much more appropriate to their origins as robotic alien life-f...

So selfish.

That's just a DJ set isn't it?

It sounds delicious. I think 'Dogstar' is going to become a favourite of mine.

But why do they take so bloody long between albums?! I find it most stressful.

jessopjessopjessop - Was you the person who said hello before the beginning of LongRange ? I didnt know it was you if you did. As Nick said, that was indeed me! I've got a couple of shots developed: Me having an amazing time: ;) http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d56/jessopjessopjessop/chill-jessopt...

Longrange and Echasketch were my highlights, and of course saying hello to Mr. Loopz

Tom Middleton was great too, but the man talks so much bullshit - in your own words, let us make our own minds up!

I have 7 essential acts, over three different stages, who I'm desperately hoping will not clash:

Sanctuary Stage - Echaskech

Castle Stage - Jon Hopkins, Longrange, The Egg

Open Air Stage - José Gonzalez, Amba, Bent

And as for all the others I hope to see...

*all extremities crossed*

Absolutely. That was what set Spiderman 2 above all else in the genre. The balance of emotive story and action was perfect, and I hope there is just as much in number three.

I have high hopes for this.

Well, it's a beauty. Soaring strings? Check. Chunky beats? Check. Noise and FX? Check.

Classic Hybrid, although nothing new, this track moistens my ear-buds for the new LP. I even ended up purchasing their four bootlegs and the Maida Vale gig from Disctinctive.com too.

Good choices there - love them both!

What's a guitar?

They're splitting due to 'musical differences'. Blimey. That's a shame. As an act so diverse, i'm surprised they could have such a thing, unless it's to do with their future direction, which you could see changing with Ariels. Any idea what the iTunes album is like? I imagine it will be hard beatin...

"Finally, Big Chill stalwarts Bent will be performing live at the festival, as part of (sniff) their farewell tour, so be prepared so shed a tear amidst the joy!"

What the hell! Why?
