Glade headliners talk Glade

By | Published on Friday 19 June 2009

Some of the headliners of this year’s Glade Festival have been lining up to say how brilliant it is. They’re right you know, as far as dance festivals go, it really is hard to beat.

First up, Karl Hyde of Underworld, who will play live, told reporters: “Glade Festival is the only live UK show where you’ll see Underworld the band this year. We can’t wait to play live and think it’s fantastic Glade Festival have a Funktion 1 soundsystem as they care about sound very much which is important to us”.

Another CMU favourite, Squarepusher, added: “The Glade is the best festival I have ever played in my life. It’s always good to play to people that are up for a party and don’t get too bothered about what algorithms you’re running! It should be good fun checking out their attempts to translate my new emoto-prog / core-thrash songs into frenetic rave dance moves. Also, I might be premiering a new project there which depends on whether it’s anywhere near ready. Could be good!”

And finally, Adam Freeland, who will play with his brilliant live band Freeland, said: “The Glade Festival is the perfect English festival experience that’s still ALL about the music”.
