It’s Day 3 already at WF09 in Sete and it’s well warmed up – will it be able to top the past 2 days of spectacular live and DJ sets here in Sete ? Biensur ! with the lineup at Theatre de la Mer a sublime one kicking off with the man Mocky who dropped [...]

Lefto is unbeatable in timely blogs and naturally his Day 1 & 2 reports were up before he went to sleep at 6am – major props to him cause this normally includes editing a vid clip and in last night’s case helping out with covering up the sound system up during a short downpour – but i’ll get back to that.
