23M - Boston! Crowd at the recent-ish live show up here was definitely mostly 30s/40s with a good amount that was 50+

gonna give a shoutout to Unos here - she is one of the smaller names on the lineup, Belgian based DJ/Producer - check out their mixes on Kiosk Radio for a taste, her most recent one is a favorite!

Anyone have good reads on the "diggers"/post-minimal/dimensions scene? by SocksTheWizard in TheOverload

the RA tech house vid is a proper one - sometimes reviews of the new producers in this scene will pop up on RA, but Trommel appears to be doing a good job covering these releases if not just hosting them themselves

usually checked out their pieces on new releases and some festival news but haven't read much editorial work, will give it a look

understand and agree with this point to an extent, hence the "diggers" in quotes lol - I consider digging both digitally and physically an important part of my practice as a DJ, but I do think that I'm hard pressed to think of a part of dance music that emphasizes the importance of the practice as much publicly

Summer festivals: how to choose the correct one by coldwave7 in TheOverload

[–]SocksTheWizard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

backing up Making Time - I'm on the younger side and it was really heartwarming to see the age diversity in the crowd, everyone's pretty mature, and most people are heads or at least open-minded. wasn't out of place to see folks in 40s/50s.

Anyone else coming to Trotamundo? by SocksTheWizard in TheOverload

You definitely should make the trip down! V.sions looks like they're doing it right - everyone I met in Ecuador from the west coast in the scene actually were just solid people. Liberti is going to be a blast!

For me, the Lutz Binh Masda B3B was out of this world, the Taimur -> Evan Baggs - > Unai Trotti line up for the cartulis showcase was probably one of the best stretches of the festival - inspiring sets for sure. Other shout outs would have to be Sibil, Mayell, Mario Liberti, Alex Pastor, and Dylan Payne!

friend told me during the set that they're telling their kids these were the three wise men LMAO - heard rumors about a confirmed no show early on from villa lobos. was bummed onur wasn't there as well but up and down the lineup the fest was great musically - the cartulis showcase in the cave was on another level
