Karl GuestLife Festival is fast-approaching and with just a couple of days left until what’s sure to be one of the stand out weekends of the year, we picked out 10 of our favourite mixes from some of the headliners that you can expect to see at Belvedere House over the three days.
1. Paula Temple @ Katharsis 2017
Paula blew us away at Life Festival back in 2017 and this recording of her set from Katharsis that year should give you a taste of what to expect on Sunday at the Index stage
2. DJ Seinfeld Boiler Room – New York
DJ Seinfeld is one of the acts we’re most excited to see at this years edition of the festival. He’ll be bringing his signature sound to the Toast Stage in the early hours of Saturday night/Sunday morning.
3. KETTAMA Live From DJMag HQ
We couldn’t be any more excited to see the return of Galway’s KETTAMA to Life Festival after his stand out performance last year. He’ll be on the District 8 stage on Sunday night.
4. Kerri Chandler Boiler Room – London
It’s well-known that Kerri is a favourite of ours and so is this Boiler Room. Straight house grooves the whole way through, we’re hoping for more of the same Sunday night on the District 8 stage.
5. Bicep – BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix (2017)
We love Bicep’s live show as much as the next person and we’ve been lucky enough to witness it a couple of times but we’re extremely excited to hear their DJ set on the main stage this Friday night, the pair have an impressive knowledge and range of music, as you can hear here in their 2017 Essential Mix.
6. FJAAK Boiler Room – Krakow
The German group are no strangers to the festival circuit here in Ireland and have been packing out club shows here for a number of years now. The duo’s latest Boiler Room is a testament to the work that they’ve put in in the studio over the last few years, an hour of power.
7. Charlotte de Witte @ Pukkelpop 2018
Charlotte’s performance at last year’s Higher Vision festival was one of the most memorable sets we’ve seen at a festival in recent times so we were majorly excited to see that Life Festival had booked the Belgian techno star. Catch her closing the District 8 stage on Saturday night.
8. Boots & Kats @ Boxed Off (2018) BE-AT.TV
The energetic duo of Boots & Kats will be returning to the Main Stage this year where they’ll play on Friday night alongside Bicep, Sally C & Denis Sulta. If you’re one of the very few people out there that still hasn’t seen the pair in action, Friday is your chance to do so.
9. DeFeKT Boiler Room – Dublin
The Irishman has become synonymous with techno/electro here in Ireland with his Live sets becoming the stuff of legend on these shores and abroad. He’ll be bringing his machines to the Index stage on Friday night for a workout, this incredible Boiler Room from Hangar in Dublin should get you in the mood.
10. Rebekah at Verknipt (ADE 2018)
Rebekah is definitely one of the acts we’re most looking forward to seeing this weekend, the UK techno heavyweight will be bringing her relentless techno sound to the Index stage on Friday night alongside a stellar local lineup. We’ve been religiously listening to this set ever since it was uploaded and we can’t wait for more of the same at Life Festival this weekend.
Now you know where we’ll be all weekend, where will you be?
The remaining tickets for the weekend are available here, but act fast as they won’t last much longer.
