You can take the festival out of the East End but you can’t take the East End out of the festival! Found may have moved to Brixton’s Brockwell Park, but the loyal fans didn’t let that stop them showing those down South how to really party. Skinny jeans, six packs, hot pants and bum bags, what more could you want from a festival…oh yes, the best house and techno DJs on the planet of course!

The list is endless, starting with the main stage; you can never go wrong with Anja Schneider throwing out tune after tune to keep the crowd going. The sun may not have been out all day, but that didn’t stop the crowd showing their love for her sick beats. And who wouldn’t want to watch Guy Gerber…super talented, tunes that are known worldwide and hot too, we all love a bit of eye candy right ladies?

Over in George Fitzgerald Presents, or as we called it; the blue tent, Bob Moses threw out one hell of a live set, nothing gets a crowd going more than a live show. Did I join in with those house shuffle moves that we love…of course I did! The entire tent was loving the fresh vibe this New York duo brought to London town.

Getting there groove on in the Feelings tent, Ron Trent and Andrés moving seamlessly between house and disco was masterful, Saturday night fever was in full effect and in Brixton.

Was a 9pm finish too early? We think not, Found gave us a great start to a night full of after parties and endless tunes. South London delivered a great space for what we hope continues to be one of the best house and techno festivals of the summer.
