Sonar, night acts, Saturday 17th

Like the night before, we started strong in SonarClub with one of the concerts with most props and decoration. The superfamous Alison with her Goldfrapp.

Even though her formula of electronic pop scratches the edge of mainstream, Goldfrapp is still popular with the underground-crowd of the electronic field, as we could tell this Saturday from the enormous number of people who attended her show. Alison is the new diva of decadent glamour, at the same time being sexy and congenial, in the british music world.

Before giving in to the french princess of techno and elctronic on the Sonar Club stage, we could warm up our motors with a session of the british guys MFA, who had a great DJ-set act, handing over to Miss Kittin with the crowd already heated up to the max. Miss Kittin animated us even further with a session of electro-house and minimal techno that the public loved.

From almost 5 in the morning until sunrise, the tired but content participants of Sonar 06 swarmed into SonarPub to dance to the session prepared by two of the big ones of the techno scene, regular DJs in the best clubs, Richie Hawtin vs. Ricardo Villalobos. Amusment squared to close a Sonar 06 that had more than 44.000 visitors in its 12th edition and seemed endless…quite possible that we see 12 editions more. Untill next year!!!
