Leftfield and Fat Freddy's Drop are among the headliners for Boomtown 2016
As
we mentioned just briefly in yesterday's Weekend
Primer, the line-up's been announced for this year's Boomtown
Fair, and it's shaping up to be an absolute stormer.
The
headline acts for 'Chapter Eight', as they're calling, it are a
typically eclectic selection: Madness, Damian Marley, Leftfield, Fat
Freddy's Drop, Parov Stelar and The Levellers. And the rest of the
bill is just as varied - and just as star-studded!
Want
house and techno? Then head to Boomtown Fair to check out Derrick
Carter, Derrick May, Jackmaser, Nightmares On Wax, Octave One, Shades
Of Rhythm, Shadow Child, Chris Liberator B2B DAVE The Drummer and
Skream.
Want
D&B, garage and bass? Then Boomtown Fair well and truly has you
covered, with Roni Size & DJ Krust, MJ Cole, Zed Bias, Ragga
Twins, My Nu Leng, Submotion Orchestra, Calibre, Calyx & Teebee,
Deep Medi, General Levy, DJ Craze, DJ Zinc, Dub Phizix & Strategy
and Newham Generals among the many treats on offer.
Want

Professor, Little Roy, Inner Circle, The Selecter, Congo Natty ft
Tenor Fly, Tippa Irie, Bad Manners, The Slackers, Mungos HiFi, Prince
Fatty, Zion Train, Morgan Heritage, Afro Celt Sound System, Asian Dub

for more info - after you watch last year's after-movie, that is.
