11 Sonique 'It Feels So Good'

Call Super b2b Objekt - Selectors, Sunday

And we'd made it, the end of the festival had arrived and to be honest, we were fucking gutted. To finish it off, there were a few tricky choices to be made. Did we opt for the Main Stage b2b of Antal and Hunee or did we go for Call Super and Objekt at Selectors. Actually, it wasn't a hard decision to make as the night before we'd been to Shelter and Call Super was on fire. He played tracks like 'All Night Long' by Layo & Bushwacka (one of our favourites of the entire weekend) and 'A Matter Of Time' by Developer (one of the tracks that collectively melted our faces off), both of which blew us away. With that pocketed and in our minds, we went to everyone's favourite forrest spot for one last dance. Naturally the two friends and esteemed DJs played an absolute blinder that brought together everything that makes a perfect set. There were classics, there was techno and there were sing-along moments. We've never actually heard 'It Feels So Good' by Sonique in the middle of the rave before but we can safely say it was one of the best moments of our lives. Ever. Thank you so much for playing it, we owe you a life-affirming dance music moment. Funster
