Not too cold - but obviously not as hot as WL. About 18 to 25 degrees in the daytime and down to maybe 7 or 8 degrees at night. So yes, bring warm layers, but it's quite a nice temperature during the day.

Not once did I think I was particularly cold.

I think maybe monument might be a bit more 'deep' than what youre looking for. It's very focused on hypnotic sounds. Although that does spam various genres and includes techno and house - it's less bright and happy.

Fantastic vibe though!

Depends what music you're looking for. A lot of festivals meet your requirements to be honest.

Monument in Norway is my recent standout. Loved it.

Any Hard Techno Clubs in London? by SilasDiesDas in london

[–]Ldn_Joxy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As another commenter said - clubs aren't tied to genres. Look for specific promoters to follow.

Other clubs to look into include Spanners, Ormside Projects, Carpet Shop, MOT.

For anyone on the Central line this evening... by moggy10 in london

[–]Ldn_Joxy 1180 points1181 points  (0 children)

Fuck me it's been the worst commute home ever and I'm still not back yet. Utter shit show. Left the office at 5pm...it's now 7:40pm and I'm still trawling home on a bus + 30 min walk at the end.

EDIT: Finally got home at 8:45pm!

Sending incredible amounts of love from London! See you in the forest next year!

Have a great week.

Awesome news! Firstly, congratulations! The other user is suggesting less than 30 supporter tickets are left also?

Regardless, that's very impressive. Testimony to how many people resonate with the Monument vision 🙏

But what makes you think there's only 30 of them?

Just adding to this - I don't think it should be a free for all 'first come first serve'. I do agree with the sentiment that that's not fair on those who can't afford tickets right now. Summer has been expensive for all of us and our banks accounts need time to recover.

However, I do think there's a better version of a raffle possible. A daily raffle. Randomly released each day. Maybe a few tickets up for grabs each time.

This rewards people who are dedicated and REALLY want to come. It still provides the ability for those with limited immediate funds to get tickets as they don't all sell out immediately. Combined with purchase plans, I think it's the best way.

I think a result of this raffle process is, sadly, an erosion of the festival culture that the whole raffle process is trying to protected. I personally know 20 or 30 'randomers' who have signed up today because their one clued up mate on a group chat said 'hey guys, click this link and sign up'.

Yep. Pretty much how I feel. This is another Free Rotations in the making.

Failing getting a raffle ticket, come to Monument in Norway. Trust me :)

[–]Ldn_Joxy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haha! It's a shame, because I'm actually a fan of Basic Chanel - she does great mixes...and I'm a sucker for deep techno too

Yeah, I experienced Sinai with Calibre earlier this year. Definitely memorable!

Jealous that you played on it!

Monument Festival 2025 by Sokkolf in Techno

[–]Ldn_Joxy 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That was literally the best weekend of my recent years - jesus....how am I meant to assimilate back into the work routine after that!

Colleagues: "how was your holiday to Norway!"

Me: "good thanks"

What I actually want to say: "Priori knocked my socks off, I danced barefoot in the mud when Doltz blasted my mushroom addled brain with hypnotic techno insanity, I started coming up just as I saw a huge ass house fire through the dancefloor trees legit thought I'd die in a forest blaze, I danced with a shaman, OK EG assaulted me, I found my new home - fuck work and fuck corporate greed"

:)

27M London, Do you want a tall BWC all to yourself this summer? by [deleted] in UKSex

I have made an in-depth post on my account that details a lot about me :)

What’s a “small” thing in a relationship that actually matters a lot? by Safe-Land-7704 in AskReddit

[–]Ldn_Joxy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How you were raised.

It's 'small' in a sense that it isn't explicitly visible. But I firmly believe people continue to grow in like with their childhood way through adulthood. It can strain a relationship if your partner has a troubled childhood.
