Sonar, So Good

Summer is finally here and the temperature is soring in London town. The mercury hit 90f today. The summer festival season is starting to get into gear and the main event for all electronic heads is the now mandatory Sonar in beautiful Barcelona. This will be the second time I've made the trip, the first being in 2003 when a whole posse of us experienced the delights of listening to the obscure glichtronica of Akufen, when suddenly his poor Laptop died and a crowd of die hard electronic heads were deprived of the genius of his micro stylings. Even with the premature end, it was still one of the highlights of a sundrenched afternoon of blissful noise.
