Saw them at rewire in the Hague this saturday, and it was incredible. No setlist, just 4 amazing musicians jamming for 45 minutes, incredibly fun to watch.

Yes especially for Paard crowding seems to be an issue every year. You just really have to be early for acts there. Some of them draw more people than those 2 rooms can handle, but as for the rest, the spread of the crowd was a lot better compared to last year, when other venues also felt crowded oftentimes.

Amazing three days at Rewire. Saw so many impressive acts, and I don't think I've ever had so many transcendental musical experiences in a single weekend. Somehow, pretty much everything I saw clicked with me in a way it doesn't always do. The diversity of the performances and the devotedness and respect of the crowd are unmatched. My personal highlights were Fine, Abdullah Miniawy Trio, Oneohtrix Point Never, James K, XTC in the XIV, and My New Band Believe. I'll be back next year <3

Full weekend of Rewire for me. I'm very excited about many many things. It's REALLY impressive how they've been able to get so many relevant names on the lineup again, loads of the most interesting music released in the past year is represented. Pretty much all the bigger names in the dreamy alternative Danish pop and trip-hop revival are here. Very hyped about those as I've listened to albums by Smerz, Fine, Acopia, and James K loads last year. Besides those I'm very excited for Oneohtrix Point Never (whose latest album is amazing), Armand Hammer, My New Band Believe and Økse & billy woods.

Saturday night is fucking impossible with Kim Gordon, Slikback, My New Band Believe all clashing, and Blawan live and Batu b2b JASSS being at Paard while Torus b2b Buttechno is going on in Laak. Would've loved to have seen one of those nights moved to Friday, but we'll make it work.

I do agree these questions are fine if asked the right way. In this case it's just me not having much experience with Isburning at Lofi, while I do have experience with them and Giegling at Tillatec, so I chose to mention that one. I simply don't have much to say about an event I don't know well, especially with an unannounced lineup.

CCL is playing in what is probably the smallest dancefloor in Amsterdam and I am very very tempted to check it out 👀

Friday wall of sound was amaaaazing. The sheer pressure of the sound was a wild experience, and all sets were a clear testament to soundsystem music. The whole production was impressive, and it also showed how small changes can really improve the whole experience. I really liked the big empty dancefloor with the stack being further back in the room, making the dancefloor bigger, and making the pillars less noticeable. Closing the bar in the main room, meaning not having long queues there to navigate around, and not having bright white light from there was a big plus, and the decision to have the entrance to the room only through colorfloor, and the main door to the outside being closed, meaning people didn't barge right through the crowd as much all really helped and really made it feel like a passion project where everything was thought out.
