5 Patrice Bäumel 'Glutes'
Tale Of Us, Drumcode: We flit across the site with ease all day. The longest stretch is to check out Drumcode, but the sweeping view of the dazzling lighting rig and a sprawling crowd as you approach it, more than makes up for it. We get into earshot just in time to hear Tale Of Us tease ‘The Hangar’, a huge upcoming release that they’re road testing at the minute. To finish off, the duo engage everyone with the brilliantly subtle hook from Patrice Baumel’s first effort on the their Afterlife imprint.
6 Minilogue ‘Arb Almub Almoh’
Jane Fitz, Into The Woods: ‘Arb Almub Almoh’ comprises nature samples over a minimal undertone. It’s a winning pick by Jane Fitz for the fifth stage nestled in the woodland. It might be the smallest area but it boasts a shady and intimate setting perfect for a boogie. There is no need to find a sweet spot in front of the soundsystem, the sunlight creeps through the leaves and we happily dance on top of twigs and branches.
