    Was there for both days and would agree about the line up doesn't quite match the ticket price for what you're getting, however - really enjoyed the whole experience. Wasn't too packed anywhere, could get a drink easily and there were enough decent acts on so that we were never stuck for someone to see. Decent crowd as well, no one too messy or causing any trouble.
    Fatima Yamaha stole the show a bit for me, him moving to a later slot on the Saturday couldn't have worked out better, definintely the best atmosphere of the weekend. Moderat, Kalkbrenner and Solomun were also decent. Would've liked to see a bit more of crystal castles but they started about a half an hour late and then clashed with Kalkbrenner.
    Wolfgang Flur in the Sugar Club was another highlight, very surreal gig especially when he donned a helmet and started marching around the stage... You can tell he just loves getting up on stage and enjoying himself. Saw a few of the talks and thought they were very interesting, definitely a unique part of this festival that they should keep. For anyone who hasn't gone to see any of the talks you should check them out next year.
    Will almost definitely go again next year if the line up is anyway decent (and they don't jack the price up again!)
