Anyone who witnessed Richie Hawtin’s set at the 2009 Sónar will be joyous at the news that he’ll be back again, perhaps more excitingly, in his Plastikman guise. There’s more good news for techno fans, with Function and Regis aka Sandwell District set to do their best to blow up the speakers in the main room. Having seen a Function DJ set at Corsica studios recently, I will lay it out on the table now and say I'm looking forward to these guys more than any other act.As always, there’s something for every lover of small 'e' electronica, from Aeroplane’s disco pop, to the stuttering experimentation of Flying Lotus and Hudson Mohwake, the dub heavy King Midas Sound and a sprinkling of big name acts like Dizzee Rascal, LCD Soundsystem and Hot Chip.
The 2010 festival (June 17-19) will be take place simultaneously in Barcelona and A Coruña, the first time in its history that it has been held in two locations.
