Shri (Live): What can I say? Witnessed a musical genius perform magic. He manipulated a crazy instrument that switched between sitar, bass guitar and violin with dexterity and mastery. Shuddering basslines complemented every heartwrenchingly soulful note, he juggled deep Asian DnB with grimey breaks - adding a dash of weighty rock (mad vocalist). Not to mention the incredible band. I could go on all day, but you get the picture... Shri was sick!!
DJ Derek: Funkywormhole was rammed and roasting for the unassuming, legendary reggae selecta... and he didn't disappoint. Dropping all manner of reggae classics, every tune was rapturous received. Toots & The Maytals' '54-46' absolutely killed it, before dropping Arthur Conley's huge classic, 'Sweet Soul Music'. Cue brocking out to soul... something I didnt think could happen!
Quantic: Continuing the Village Green mash up, we skipped to watch hot-as-waking-up-in-tents producer Quantic. Love his fresh 'n' funky sound, but his DJ set was too obscure House for my taste. Disappointing.
