Tom Krell is an unassuming man, not the sort you&#8217;d expect to kill a crowd&#8217;s chatter with a mere ditch of the microphone. He does, though, and the outcome is beautiful. How To Dress Well&#8217;s spine tingling fusion of RnB and electro-pop might be wasted beneath the dull persistence of chatter, but for those who know why they&#8217;ve congregated, it&#8217;s the performance of the festival. <b>CM<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b><\/b><b style=\"line-height: 1.714285714;font-size: 1rem\">Eagulls \u00d4\u00c7\u00f4 The Lantern<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Regardless of what comes out of your mouth when you sing, if you can pull off a turtleneck and high-waisted jeans, you&#8217;re good in my book. Lucky for Eagulls, however, lead vocalist George Mitchell teams his unparalleled fashion sense with a voice fit to bowl over the eagerly awaiting crowd, landing him in the good books of at least 300 other people. The Lantern is packed, and Eagulls&#8217; offering of catchy post-punk ditties does more than enough to keep punters away from secret headliners and DJs galore on this expeditious evening. \u252c\u00e1<b>CM<\/b><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_7163\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7163\" style=\"width: 720px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2014\/11\/SOPHIE-PHOTOGRAPHER-KANE-AARON-Imgur.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-7163  \" alt=\"SOPHIE - PHOTOGRAPHER KANE AARON - Imgur\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2014\/11\/SOPHIE-PHOTOGRAPHER-KANE-AARON-Imgur.jpg\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2014\/11\/SOPHIE-PHOTOGRAPHER-KANE-AARON-Imgur.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2014\/11\/SOPHIE-PHOTOGRAPHER-KANE-AARON-Imgur-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2014\/11\/SOPHIE-PHOTOGRAPHER-KANE-AARON-Imgur-700x466.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7163\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Credit: Kane Aaron<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><b style=\"line-height: 1.714285714;font-size: 1rem\">SOPHIE \u00d4\u00c7\u00f4 Red Bull Music Academy Firestation<\/b><\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a strong argument for PC music being shit, a strong argument that a lot of people agree with. No one wants to listen to a conglomeration of samples from early 90s video games mixed with the vocals of a squeaky-voiced girl babbling all too enthusiastically about lemonade, do they? Well actually, yes, yes they do. SOPHIE&#8217;s midafternoon soiree might not be the most diversified 40 minutes that Simple Things has on offer, but it is certainly one of the most enjoyable; cares are forgotten and dancing shoes are donned for this sugary sweet shindig. <b>CM<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b><\/b><b style=\"line-height: 1.714285714;font-size: 1rem\">Death From Above 1979 \u00d4\u00c7\u00f4 O2 Academy 1<\/b><\/p>\n<p>They&#8217;re the headliners that everyone has been waiting for, the coveted Canadian duo out on the back of their first release in 10 years. Death From Above might have been keeping it quiet for a good while, but they certainly haven&#8217;t been resting on their laurels. A stellar performance proves that even the most tried and tested of formulas can be as impressive as they were upon first airing, and despite taking up residence in only the second best venue of the night, DFA take it all in their stride. <b>CM<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Zomby \u00d4\u00c7\u00f4 Coroners Court 1<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Zomby is a total mystery. Forget about the mask and the rumours, The Coroners Court is more concerned with what on earth a Zomby set consists of. There&#8217;s no misty alleyway of dance music left unexplored by his scattered career; from minimalist dubstep to 90s rave and break-beat house, Zomby has crafted every genre, sub-genre and sub-sub-genre he can get his hands on. Tonight pays homage to the rave scene of the 90&#8217;s, The Coroners Court&#8217;s dank halls making for the perfect environment, and with a sprinkling of more modern sounds, it&#8217;s far from a grasp towards something lost. <b>CF<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b><\/b><b style=\"line-height: 1.714285714;font-size: 1rem\">The Haxan Cloak \u00d4\u00c7\u00f4 The Lantern<\/b><\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s getting late and most people have either collapsed on the last bus home or made their way away from Colston Hall and towards the dance venues for further debaucheries. Not everyone though; for a few expectant stragglers in The Lantern, a storm is brewing. Toying with the boundaries of drone music and the dark shadow where electro meets metal, The Haxan Cloak is mesmerizingly powerful, jarring to your very bones and as strikingly gifted as he is terrifying. This expansive wall of sound is not one for the faint hearted, but it is earth shatteringly impressive. <b>CF<\/b><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_7159\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7159\" style=\"width: 700px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2014\/11\/DJ-SPRINKLES-PHOTOGRAPHER-KANE-AARON-Imgur.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-7159 \" alt=\"Credit: Kane Aaron\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2014\/11\/DJ-SPRINKLES-PHOTOGRAPHER-KANE-AARON-Imgur.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"507\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2014\/11\/DJ-SPRINKLES-PHOTOGRAPHER-KANE-AARON-Imgur.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2014\/11\/DJ-SPRINKLES-PHOTOGRAPHER-KANE-AARON-Imgur-300x217.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2014\/11\/DJ-SPRINKLES-PHOTOGRAPHER-KANE-AARON-Imgur-700x507.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7159\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Credit: Kane Aaron<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><b>SPECIAL GUEST: DJ SPRINKLES \u00d4\u00c7\u00f4 THE TERRACE<\/b><\/p>\n<p>The crowd at Colston Hall&#8217;s balcony bar have ditched the Red Stripe for cocktails as we settle into evening proper and await the \u00d4\u00c7\u00ffvery, very special guest&#8217;. A slightly cheeky build-up as DJ Sprinkles, who, legendary status aside, is already on the bill for a slot some three hours late, takes to the stage. Though, it&#8217;s difficult to identify her at all; attracting one of the bigger crowds of the festival and playing more funk and soul numbers than fans of her electro-house output would expect, it seems Sprinkles is an act better enjoyed at a later, headline billing.<b> JD<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>REJJIE SNOW \u00d4\u00c7\u00f4 Red Bull Music Academy Firestation <\/b><\/p>\n<p>When Rejjie Snow approaches the front of stage and asks \u00d4\u00c7\u00ffGive me a word&#8217;, he&#8217;s left without a response and the reaction to his attempts at a \u00d4\u00c7\u00ffSnow&#8217; chant are muted and self-conscious, but he just laughs it off. He seems to be loving his performance, casually dipping in and out of his <i>Rejovich<\/i> EP and a new album, which he talks about with boyish excitement.
