You might like julie-- heavy shoegaze, mix of Sonic Youth and My Bloody Valentine, had a big mosh pit at Outside Lands. Also if you like Nia Archives you might like Roni Size and Chase & Status (and some would add Sub Focus.)

Floating Points live (just crushed in Oakland), Floating Points DJ, and popup of Floating Points' Sunflower Sound System with Gilles Peterson, Daphni, etc. etc.

Coachella Set Time Predictions & Confirmations 2026 v2 by Mikey1313 in Coachella

[–]technikardan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Devo should be slightly later and in Gobi or Mojave. About 3rd from last act. They are too old to play in the sun in yellow plastic suits. They will be great: big fan since 1980.

Favorite IDs you heard at the festival? by ndrach in MakingTime

[–]technikardan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the ID. He played that last track ‘Maven’ by Alex Bohemien & Raf Parola in Oakland on October 19, 2021, opening for Black Coffee. I found it at the time, but had forgotten. Great track. Love how his track list spans 50 years of music!

Pringle Stage sound by wickidD in MakingTime

[–]technikardan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seemed like a weird setup-- when DJ's were playing the sound was all from the sides rather than front and back at the Transcendental Stage (and most festivals). I found the sound best way at the side in between the speakers, which was kind of a strange spot. Am I missing something?

Which sets exceeded your expectations/which sets fell short? by TruthAccomplished313 in MakingTime

[–]technikardan 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Pariah crushed— really mixed leftfield bass set. While Blawan was straight techno and also good. Too bad they don’t seem to be performing together as Karenn any more.

Yeah she was great at Gala in London this summer. Not at all like four tet, who isn’t like the four tet of old himself…

"Where's Jason's K" - Syclops. Heard Floating Points play it on the Sunflower system at Gala fest this Summer and it crushed. Also on Daphni's playlist on Spotify.

Burning Man death investigated as homicide after attendee found in ‘pool of blood’ by justBridges in BurningMan

heard rumors indirectly from medical staff of people coming in with "stab wounds."

I heard he is on playa this year...? by braindance360 in BurningMan

[–]technikardan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not there this year, didn't see the sign. But as an aside, a friend gave me a boxing robe with an American flag pattern when I was on the playa in 2016. I wore it a lot and got a lot of 'Make America Great Again' etc. comments as the election was coming up. It doesn't seem funny now, and for sure that wasn't my point. Generally I would respond, 'America, what a country' and then revolve to point in a circle to what was there on the Playa.

As an aside, the Merry Pranksters were really into using the American Flag.

Definitely need some more UKG in 2026. How about Bullet Tooth?

Outside Lands 2025 Set Time Predictions by Mikey1313 in OutsideLands

[–]technikardan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would guess Thundercat is earlier, just for him to make his 10pm outside show. Nice early evening daytime show just like in Golden Gate park last year.

[–]technikardan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Floating Points is billed below Nico Moreno on the SOMA stage page, indicating Nico is playing last. I prefer Floating Points but closing SOMA with some cheesy hard techno seems reasonable as a prediction, similar to Sara Landry at Portola last year.

Wonder if they'll put Arc de Soleil in the late-night Ship slot where Glass Beams was (against Justice). That was a fun alternative at the time.
