Rockfeedback Presents Episode 2: Field Day
By: Toby L
Rockfeedback Presents returns to television screens tonight (1.20am, Channel 4) with a missive from London's Field Day, the inaugural psychedelic fete in Hackney.
Featuring music from the varied and challenging kinds of Justice, Bat for Lashes, Battles, Foals, Four Tet, and Chromeo, as well as an indie tug of war, guided by promoter of the event Tom Baker in a witty 'walk and talk'.
Highlight: the hilarious stand-off between Battles and Baker in respect of sound problems experienced on the day. Tense.
It's an illuminating and diverse insight into one of the UK's most exciting and progressive new events, as well as dips into artists well worth deeper investigation - Electrelane (RIP), Late of the Pier, Vetiver, Caribou, James Yorkston, Absentee, and more besides.
