The twin Arcadia worlds across the two-day festival are already beginning to cast their spells with Saturday’s Helix pulsing to a house and techno heartbeat while Radium’s Sunday bass ignition triggers an eruption of roots, colour, energy and fire.
Helix is an all-engulfing journey through the primal power of 4 to the floor rhythm with an extraordinary series of artists stepping up to code its DNA. Fresh from his ground breaking Barbican show, DC10 alchemist Jamie Jones is deep in the lab synthesizing a vivid new soundscape of heaving bass, tribal depth, uplifting peaks and magnetic emotion for his signature set of the year.
Hot Since 82, riding high on the runaway global success of his Knee Deep and Labyrinth events, slings down party starting rhythms, peak time euphorics and melodic soul. What can you say about Sasha – transcendental since the dawn of acid house with mercurial, otherworldly frequencies surfing an eternal beat while Alan Fitzpatrick slams out the heavyweight bangers on a runaway freight train.
Radium sees the bass-heavy pressure fly with EZ pitting his full turntablist arsenal against the Spider’s full spectrum of mayhem. One of the world’s most adventurous and flamboyant DJ’s on a real-time rollercoaster through three deck cutmaster mixing combined with giant flame bursts, flying creatures, and a whole new collaborative set of SFX. This is EZ as you’ve never seen him before.
Joining him is laser guided bass weapon, Sub Focus whose drum n bass earthshakers fuse a whole panoply of musical influences into a sonic cyclone while ID steps up on the mic to ride the storm. Hot off the back of her XOYO residency and on a serious roll comes Flava D to tear up the dancefloor in her first major festival appearance of the summer, while special guest Lethal Bizzle takes over the Olympic Park with rampaging hip-hop, cutting edge grime and sun-soaked uproar……. Colour, riddim, roots and soul – the Radium is glowing red!
