unmissable. add vitalic and i might go

― fe zaffe (fezaffe), Thursday, 31 March 2005 20:14 (twenty-one years ago)

well, vitalic's doing primavera sound in barcelona a month or so before, and he's doing the rounds promoting ok cowboy, so maybe he he'll be a late addition...-or- he'll be snatched up by one of the big bcn clubs (razzmatazz, nitsa) for their sonar-competing nights

― manuel (manuel), Thursday, 31 March 2005 21:10 (twenty-one years ago)

oh my fucking god this is so exciting. i'm finally going this year!

― mark p (Mark P), Thursday, 31 March 2005 21:12 (twenty-one years ago)

isn't it? i think the lineup's much more solid than last year's

― manuel (manuel), Thursday, 31 March 2005 21:18 (twenty-one years ago)

plus there's bound to be more goodness (coughkompaktcough) at all the surrounding parties. BOOK IT.

― mark p (Mark P), Thursday, 31 March 2005 21:23 (twenty-one years ago)

man, I wasn't going to go this year.... but this looks damn good. much more exciting than last year.

― Tannenbaum Schmidt (Nik), Thursday, 31 March 2005 21:33 (twenty-one years ago)

hmmm... if were coming from the states and trying to be frugal, how much would i expect to have to spend? for 2? any experienced in this? i have somewhat serious plans with the girlfriend at that time, but i don't think she would object to a surprise trip to spain if it can be pulled within reason... i just discovered i have a serious airfare hookup.

― firstworldman (firstworldman), Thursday, 31 March 2005 21:40 (twenty-one years ago)

playing it a slightly safer than last year surely?

this is about the only board on the web I've seen positive reactions so far.

all that said... still plenty enough goodness to go round.

― lurlerlekrer, Thursday, 31 March 2005 22:01 (twenty-one years ago)

the areal, mnus and get physical showcasesswing it for me. i was gonna go anwyay.
anyone up for Fergie for the what the fuckin fuck factor?!?!!?!?!

the people who organise this are the weirdest people ever.

i wish they would cancel the chemical bros and use their performance fees to book a zillion much better people. shitloads of people go to sonar anyway, they dont need to book lame-o stdium tours to bump up the numbers, shurely?

― ambrose (ambrose), Thursday, 31 March 2005 22:04 (twenty-one years ago)

well, it's at least 200 euros for the 3-day passes

you can either rent an apartment for those 3 days or check into a hostel...i hooked up with a couple who rented out a room in their flat for the sonar weekend, and i think i paid like 70 euros for the 3 nights, got to use their kitchen so i saved a bundle by cooking there and had a key to myself (no curfews, which some hostels do have) so check whatever barcelona classifieds you can find, apparently lots of people do this sort of thing because sonar -is- a big tourist draw for the city...do this as soon as possible, rates for all accomodation go up statospherically because of this as june approaches

don't bother buying 3 euro beer cups while at sonar at day...go into any convenience store and drink up in the MACBA sidewalks or sneak in the stuff, security isn't that tight...but it is at sonar by night, no contraband there

sonar at night is held at a hangar-like venue not too close to the heart of the city, so you either have to get a cab (perfectly shareable with other people going there too) or pay 3 euros a trip for the sónar bus

drugs are cheap, if you're into that...don't buy from the crusty punks outside sonar by night though, overpriced and dodgy

get 5-10 trip metro passes, they're like 6 euros (i think), and you can go to the beach in the morn and then drop by sonar by day when you feel like it

will post more info when i remember it!

― manuel (manuel), Thursday, 31 March 2005 22:09 (twenty-one years ago)

oh, and EVERY club in barcelona has incredibly stellar lineups for the whole week, not just the sonar weekend...razzmatazz had miss kittin + vitalic, nitsa had kompakt vs. bpitch control and output nights -during- sonar, moog has its dj hell party post-sonar...so if you wanna go all out, save up some more cuz it's at least 15 euros to get in

― manuel (manuel), Thursday, 31 March 2005 22:12 (twenty-one years ago)

as for cost, the tickets are 105 euros for the whole shebang, not 200!

"General Pass
(3 Days + 2 Nights Ticket)
105€
CCCB-MACBA-Centre d'art Santa Mònica-Fira Gran Via (M2)
The easiest way of attending Sónar. Permits entrance to Sónar by Day and Sónar by Night, the three days and the two nights (Friday, Saturday) of the festival"

and accomodation., well people sometimes charge more for sonar time for flats etc. there is a camping site outside of barcleona that was 9 euros a night last time i checked, its a 30 min bus ride into town, but would be nearer than that for sonar by night. you pay a supplement for a car. its in castelldefells, or thereabouts.

i think we paid about 25 pound a night. or maybe thatr was euros. thats was for an apartment for 5 people or so. sorrry i cant be more precise. s for costs within barcelona, its not as cheap a town as you might expect.

that is totally useless, sorry.

― ambrose (ambrose), Thursday, 31 March 2005 22:17 (twenty-one years ago)

200 euros for 2 people :)

― manuel (manuel), Thursday, 31 March 2005 22:18 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm not going to look at this thread until I'm sure I can actually go, otherwise it will send me into paroxysms of jealousy and bitterness.

― The Lex (The Lex), Thursday, 31 March 2005 22:29 (twenty-one years ago)

Bah, looks fantastic, wish i had the cash to go.

― leigh (leigh), Friday, 1 April 2005 07:30 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm assuming Subtle are NOT playing this as listed

― kyle (akmonday), Friday, 1 April 2005 07:50 (twenty-one years ago)

two weeks pass...

ok so who's going to this then? im flying into spain on june 13th. sonar man roll call!

― mark p (Mark P), Saturday, 16 April 2005 16:36 (twenty-one years ago)

I am dying to go to this.

I am asking for it, for a birthday present.

― cozen (Cozen), Saturday, 16 April 2005 17:23 (twenty-one years ago)

yeh im going

― ambrose (ambrose), Saturday, 16 April 2005 21:40 (twenty-one years ago)

i wish i was going, but i go every other year.

― Tannenbaum Schmidt (Nik), Saturday, 16 April 2005 21:48 (twenty-one years ago)

uh looks like I'm in.

― cozen (Cozen), Tuesday, 19 April 2005 18:44 (twenty-one years ago)

think i'm in too. anyone from seattle/sf going? anyone want to figure out lodging??

― nima, Tuesday, 19 April 2005 19:04 (twenty-one years ago)

i'm going. border community's playing a showcase at the loft that weekend too.

― philip sherburne (philip sherburne), Tuesday, 19 April 2005 20:12 (twenty-one years ago)

phil, have yo ugot any other tips about related shows going on?

eg one beginning with a k?
anything liek that?

― ambrose (ambrose), Tuesday, 19 April 2005 22:39 (twenty-one years ago)

there's always a kompakt beach party on the sunday after, or there has been at least the past 2 years - i'm sure there will be one this year....

― philip sherburne (philip sherburne), Tuesday, 19 April 2005 22:42 (twenty-one years ago)

argh i have to leave on the sunday!

― mark p (Mark P), Tuesday, 19 April 2005 22:47 (twenty-one years ago)

mark, change your ticket. for rills. there's no way you will be in a condition to leave on sunday.

― philip sherburne (philip sherburne), Tuesday, 19 April 2005 22:58 (twenty-one years ago)

well, i'm theoretically supposed to be leaving for france on sunday, but maybe i'll be able to hold off an extra day. we'll see what the boss says.

from the Sónar newsletter

― manuel (manuel), Wednesday, 4 May 2005 10:53 (twenty-one years ago)

hmmm diplo. that sounds good. forget the rest (or should i?)

― ambrose (ambrose), Wednesday, 4 May 2005 11:31 (twenty-one years ago)

i'm curious about tim goldsworthy's DFA set

― manuel (manuel), Wednesday, 4 May 2005 12:15 (twenty-one years ago)

i'm flying into bilbao on the 12th and should be meeting friends in barcelona by the 14th. email me if you're coming down! mark dot pytl1k at rogers.com. sonar man roll call!

― mark p (Mark P), Wednesday, 4 May 2005 12:39 (twenty-one years ago)

just for the areal and get physical showcases, i think i'm gonna go. the rest of it, i just fancy getting smashed in the sun. ambrose i would totally check fergie out, just for a laugh. this hip hop is bollocks as usual, though, and as per, absolutely no reggae, which i s a big shame because i can't imagine anything better than that on a hot summer day.

― stelfox, Wednesday, 4 May 2005 13:03 (twenty-one years ago)

americuns, but your tickets now because prices are sky high. i shelled out over a grand last night. (tip: iberia seems to be the cheapest - way better than any of the domestic airlines.)

dave, my guess is that reggae has never resonated w/ hipster communities in spain the way it does in the US or UK. i could be wrong. also, last year was sonar's big hip-hop extravaganza, which reflected barcelona's (and maybe spain's) infatuation with it at the time. from what i've heard, though, it's not as big there as it was last year. i could of course be way off on all these cod-sociological assessments.

(and they did have francois k spin a dub set once!)

― philip sherburne (philip sherburne), Wednesday, 4 May 2005 15:30 (twenty-one years ago)

if you are taking records DO NOT CHECK THEM ON AN IBERIA FLIGHT. i really cannot stress this enough.

― stelfox, Wednesday, 4 May 2005 16:07 (twenty-one years ago)

my flights are booked, I don't fly in until late-afternoon thursday.

accommodation worries start here. is it possible to do this by tent?!

― cozen (Cozen), Monday, 9 May 2005 05:08 (twenty-one years ago)

(aka hook a brother up.)

― cozen (Cozen), Monday, 9 May 2005 05:08 (twenty-one years ago)

theres a campsite out at castelldefells, estrella de mar i was there a few years ago and it was pretty cheap. it looks a long way away, but theres buses that run along the autovia de castelldefells to barcelona, placa espana. only takes about 30 mins. as for gettign back, there are buses at night, its a bit weird. i ended up on one that took us somewhere totally random. sonar by night is out towards that way though, so a taxi might not be awful.

― ambrose (ambrose), Monday, 9 May 2005 10:22 (twenty-one years ago)

There are campsites all the way along the coast from Castelldefels to the river Llobregat. I recommend La Ballena Alegre (the Jolly Whale) just because of its name. It's far enough out of town to be annoying if you don't like being out of town, mind. I don't know if they cater for ravers, it's more like weekenders having barbeques. Also the annual socialist party shindig. There is a nice bird reserve next to the one nearest the airport.

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller), Monday, 9 May 2005 10:46 (twenty-one years ago)

thanks, ambrose and PJ.

sonar man roll call indeed!

haha is there anyone needing a roomie?

― cozen (Cozen), Monday, 9 May 2005 12:11 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm going & would love to meet cool ILM people like Mark, Phil, Dave and Cozen. Let's e-mail and swap phone numbers.

― JoB (JoB), Friday, 20 May 2005 21:25 (twenty-one years ago)

yeah, me too!

― sandeman, Monday, 23 May 2005 19:49 (twenty-one years ago)

― The Lex (The Lex), Monday, 23 May 2005 20:07 (twenty-one years ago)

badass, thanks for the nitsa listings, in the same spirit heres the loft club listings for the sonar period:

― ambrose (ambrose), Monday, 23 May 2005 20:09 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm also going to the Sónar warm-up at Fabric on Thursday, who else is going to that?

― The Lex (The Lex), Monday, 23 May 2005 20:09 (twenty-one years ago)

Actually I think the best thing to do with all these listings is not to pay too much attention to any of them. I am not going to spend any time stressing over what I might be missing.

I need to buy some new sunglasses. And practice wearing contact lenses for longer than is healthy.

― The Lex (The Lex), Monday, 23 May 2005 20:10 (twenty-one years ago)

If you hadn't guessed I'm ever so slightly excited about this!

― The Lex (The Lex), Monday, 23 May 2005 20:11 (twenty-one years ago)

Ok, providing I get through customs I am in BCN from Wed afternoon...

First thing: go to Lomo shop.
Then: I think I'm going to Moog: pre-Sonar spinning on Wednesday night.

crap, the nitsa nights + the border community thing make for some seriously conflicting programming. fuckeroo.

i'm playing at moog on 6.27, if anyone's in town that long.

― philip sherburne (philip sherburne), Tuesday, 7 June 2005 06:40 (twenty-one years ago)

That the anti-Sonar scrawls are in English plays, I think, into the hands of Sonar. I would have preferred A TOMAR POR CULO SONAR or the Catalan equivalent.

When I went into the gallery pictured above there was a large artwork painted with dogshit, accompnaied by a soundtrack loop of barking dogs.

― Peter Stringbender (PJ Miller), Tuesday, 7 June 2005 06:51 (twenty-one years ago)

ok, we have an apartment, i'm officially psyched! i'm down on the afternoon of the 13th. is anyone going a bit early? would be nice to meet up for drinks, esp. as i've never been to spain! sonar man roll call.

― mark p (Mark P), Wednesday, 8 June 2005 14:43 (twenty-one years ago)

I can't believe that in one week and one day I will be there!

(I'm only flying in on the Thursday, and back out again Sunday morning, which kind of sucks but I can't afford any more)

― The Lex (The Lex), Wednesday, 8 June 2005 15:10 (twenty-one years ago)

mark p, I will be there from the 15th. I should be sorted by mid/late afternoon (getting to my flat) and am up for beers.

I probably will meet up with 2 other friends at some point and would be really into going to Moog on wednesday night.

― Tannenbaum Schmidt (Nik), Wednesday, 8 June 2005 20:19 (twenty-one years ago)

absinthe?

duses try cava in the cava bar down barcelonaeta. 2 euros a bottle, awesome tapas too.

― ambrose (ambrose), Monday, 13 June 2005 21:30 (twenty years ago)

I think absinthe is a really bad idea. I don't know if I've told my absinthe story on ilx but it ends up with me shouting at beggars and poking a policeman on sauchiehall street ("you wanna deal?!"). I don't fancy doing this in barcelona.

What did you guys think of Basteroid? (please tell me you saw Basteroid)

― Semaphore Burns (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 21 June 2005 17:47 (twenty years ago)

I saw basteroid. I liked him a lot, the rotund DJ is an undervalued archetyped, my sweet tooth was aching for ada by that point though.

― cozen (Cozen), Tuesday, 21 June 2005 17:49 (twenty years ago)

I'm so hopeless, I swear I recognised like 4 tracks during the whole festival.

― cozen (Cozen), Tuesday, 21 June 2005 17:50 (twenty years ago)

"the rotund DJ is an undervalued archetype"

I blame Panacea for undermining this archtype's success.

― Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Tuesday, 21 June 2005 17:52 (twenty years ago)

highlights:

ada (sort of - i really only wanted to hear luckycharms, which came on as i was queuign for a bleedin crepe!). the rest of her set was sort of weirdly crap and at the same time really good! couldnt really work it out.

heard the last 30 secs of basteroid, it sounded good

marc houle - wicked wicked wicked set

mark one - (nb not virus syndicate!) - it was just decent to hear all the tunes on that massive massive soundstystem. especially when virus synidate shut the fuck up

dj cha (?!) - at nitsa....we walked in on fri night, and nitsa was on fire...the tunes were brutal, then ellen allien played a 20 min set (!) and it was hard as fuck. only stayed for an hour or so, then went to sonar. thanks for programming dj koze and mayer at the end of the night, fuck faces!

richie hawtin - yeah, it was good. some wicked tunes, although the matthew jonson tune at the end got old real real quick.

2manydjs was pretty good as well.

"rocker" sounded really ghood, if a bit corny, at moog on wed night! a good start to the whole thing!

i think out of sonar, marc houle was the best music i heard.

of course...the best thing was the c/o pop party on the beach
next year im just going for that
no idea who played, think i missed mayer, but it was awesome, the sun, the sea (went for a swim!) and dancing on the beach, right by the shore. and thwey played daft punk!

― Semaphore Burns (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 21 June 2005 18:25 (twenty years ago)

nitsa nitsa nitsa god i love that place

i think i saw n/a in moog, or someone that looked like him. i was going to say somethign but thouht i would make an ass of myself.

just listening to this mat jonson tune "return of the zombie bikers" and that wasd the tune i hated so much! it sounds way way better on this computer than it did at the sonar outsider thing wtf?

― ambrose (ambrose), Tuesday, 21 June 2005 18:48 (twenty years ago)

I'm guessing that tax man track that tiga (? border community?) and 2manydj's played is some really obvious, big rocker-style track that I've never heard of.

― cozen (Cozen), Tuesday, 21 June 2005 18:52 (twenty years ago)

what was razzmatazz like? i was gonna go for nathan fake and tiefschwarz and couldnt be bothered. then i found out the next day at galaktika that dj t had played there too! fuck!

i was so pissed off that they scheduled dj t and booka shade at 4 in the after-fucking-noon. like, why on earth woudl that be a good idea?

― ambrose (ambrose), Tuesday, 21 June 2005 19:07 (twenty years ago)

it was also really good to hear chelonis r jones - i dont know (just us dub) er...."just" before ada came on.

― ambrose (ambrose), Tuesday, 21 June 2005 19:10 (twenty years ago)

what were your thoughts of the city itself? I so desperately want to go there one day.

― Lovelace (Lovelace), Tuesday, 21 June 2005 19:15 (twenty years ago)

razzmatazz was good, ambrose, diplo was on a bit too early really, played a lot of stuff from 'favela on blast'. nathan fake (I think that's who it was) was unbelievable, real acid marathon toward the end, tiga a lot of fun too, the club had reached its 4am pitched fever by that point. whoever the turntablism dj was (cut chemist?) I could do with a lot less of.

I would scan in my pic of me and mark with el bioni but I look unholy.

i beleive barcelona to have one of the best integrated urban transport systems in europe. i expliored extensively on friday morning whilst studiously ignoring the sonar events. tram, bus, minibus, two types of trains (FGC and Renfe), Funicular and metro all available on one ticket!

― ambrose (ambrose), Wednesday, 22 June 2005 10:22 (twenty years ago)

i had an amazing holiday holiday. beach party = best. but sonar by night... ugh, partying in a place with all the vibe of an oversized shopping mall, no thx. can't wait to go back, but no sonar general pass for me next year.

― a, Wednesday, 22 June 2005 10:49 (twenty years ago)

come on, partying in a shopping mall is pretty crazy! i think that everyone should experience jeff mills in the main huge room, just once and then not bother again. the sheer scale is pretty incredible, and to their credit, the sound in both the main room and the outside part is really good, a great system. the one in the sonarpark bit was quite horrible tho, especially for stuff with vocals.

― ambrose (ambrose), Wednesday, 22 June 2005 14:24 (twenty years ago)

if I went back I think I'd just go for the stuff that's on in-and-around the festival, which isn't to say I didn't love it just that I felt like I was missing a whole lot, anyway I was there for 'professional reasons', which is obviously going to make it feel somewhat constraining. sonar by night is a ridiculous (read strange & awesome) venue for it mind... the sheer scale is both terrifying and awesome.

― cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 22 June 2005 14:44 (twenty years ago)

can i scan in mine, cozen?

― mark p (Mark P), Wednesday, 22 June 2005 16:03 (twenty years ago)

i really should be working so ill write more later, but basically:

YES: nathan fake, james holden, tiga, 2manydjs, soft pink truth, miss kitten, ada, m.i.a., diplo, james murphy, lcd soundsystem, luke vibert, world's end girlfriend (BEST BEST daytime thing by miles and miles), incredible beatbox crew (sp), hot chip, jeff mills, le tigre (!!)

DISAPPOINTING: jamie lidell (major technicals, did a scat set, very sub-jamiroquai!), basteroid (donnae get the hype), ellen allien (she was just... off), any and all spanish rap, to rococo rot, subtle (doseone talks like that in reallife too!)

MISSED: mark one, mu, efterklang, plat du jour, rupture, hood, richard x

5 BEST: nathan fake at razzmattazz, soft pink truth, world's end girlfriend, 2manydjs (esp. when they played "crescendolls") and possibly diplo, but only cuz it was the last set of sonar, no one was in the room and he was playing all the stuff that my pop side was totally craving after three days of tech-no tech-no tech-no..

― mark p (Mark P), Wednesday, 22 June 2005 16:13 (twenty years ago)

― mark p (Mark P), Wednesday, 22 June 2005 16:37 (twenty years ago)

it was lovely meeting cozen and mark p, by the way.

did you have a better night on saturday, mark?

a few more things dribbling into memory:

-dancing in the amazing sunbeam-lit basilica which is SonarLab to the unexpectedly astounding Iñaqui Marín, by myself right in front of the big fuck-off fan at the back
-Marianna and I striding past SonarPark while DJ Yoda was playing on our way to somewhere else, hearing the opening bars of 'Lose Control', looking at each other and as one diving into the room to dance
-Paris Hilton sex tape used as visuals for Mu
-'Requiem For A Hit' is such an anthem
-2ManyDJs dropping 'Poney Pt 1' at 7am just when I noticed that the sun had risen and all these flagging dancers having their batteries totally recharged by its opening bars

hmm:

-MIA was a little disappointing. she was very good, but she wasn't GREAT especially compared to Róisín Murphy. her homegirl kind of had better moves and more presence. but it was still fun to dance to.
-OK I love 'NY Excuse' and 'E Talking' as much as the next hipster but enough already, they're becoming dancefloor clichés

― The Lex (The Lex), Wednesday, 22 June 2005 16:39 (twenty years ago)

yeah, nathan fake was fucking great, and made all the better by his starting the second i walked through the door after all the confusion outside. (in contrast, the 5 minutes or so i caught of adult. afterwards were v poor.)

― a, Wednesday, 22 June 2005 17:23 (twenty years ago)

i'd need some seriously high quality drugs to deal with sonar by night. (and that'd still be a waste.) different strokes etc. the best soundsystem i heard all week was at liquid on sunday night... but that could have just been my good mood. anyone else who was there - was Mini Me in attendance or was i hallucinating??

― a, Wednesday, 22 June 2005 17:26 (twenty years ago)

actually, seriously high quality drugs made sonar by night, this year, the first time i truly enjoyed sonar by night, in fact more than sonar by day, and two nights in a row. who knew chemicals made crowds so manageable? (actually, no - the first half of the first night the crowd was absolutely nightmarish, nothing short of being comatose would have made that bearable.)

― for professional reasons, Wednesday, 22 June 2005 22:44 (twenty years ago)

he queue to get into plat du jour was insane and put me off going to anything else at sonar by day. im gutted i missed out on the basilica stuff though, i didnt nkow that was a venue - never had it when i last went. i should have gone to the circus company thing there.

― ambrose (ambrose), Friday, 24 June 2005 22:01 (twenty years ago)

that guy was upstairs in the pop bar at razzmatazz, having his picture taking with people from the crowd. he was sitting on a little couch, set back from the dancefloor, looking really comfortable and suave. his name is "el dioni", apparently in 1989 he stole 300 million pesetas from the armoured van he was driving for work. he went to jail for it but ended up a popular hero.

― c/n (Cozen), Saturday, 25 June 2005 07:45 (twenty years ago)

If my connection dies now I can only hope it's still there in the morning. Firefox 'resume' needs either fixing or, removing as a feature. It doesn't work, ever! I can't be bothered to install Opera (resume works) or some such workaround right now. Bet it stalls at 99%. Gah, why do people ZIP mp3 files?? It doesn't compress them any more does it? Am I misinformed about that?

i paid for the premium thing, it was only 10 euros, and rapidshare seems pretty great generally. its a pity the sets are quite short, misses "luckycharms" on the ada set, but the alex under set sounds wicked, gutted that i missed him. theres some more on slsk floating about that arent on therwe, like a james holden and miss kitten set.
