Welcome to Goldfrapp's world, look forward to discovering it.
A backdrop that replicates something from a sci-fi movie set and costumes that pretty much follow suit. Through an eye catching silver lame, Goldfrapp enters centre in a black shimmering poncho that replicates something of a crow with its wings spread wide.
The green back lighting and industrial fans giving a great windswept look contribute to stage presence that has not been seen all weekend. A mystical look that has influences of world magic and mystery.
With single spotlight burning brightly upon this drawing figure, a great performance of Number 1 complimented by visuals that make me feel 'oh so glad' to be experiencing this event, no other stage performance has come close.
Brand new release, Believer, keeps the energy moving and the crowds energy risers to match. The fresh tracks & synth sound continues in high intensity for Alive and the performance of Rocket works this crowd and me into an amazing frenzy. Her performance experience shows and shines, brand new songs never sounded this good.
One of my most loved sounds, the dirty synth gets a real workout in Don't Stop This Train and with an awesome backing lineup who do nothing else but providing a sound that you can't help but love and move to.
Ride on the Wild Horse is played and has beautiful polish of your favourite digital track with every piece of vocal flair you would ask for in a live show.
That vocal flair is unwavering throughout Strict Machine and is convincing me on the spot that this the best live electronic performance I have ever seen. Sorry Delphic! Empire of the Sun will have to bring their A+ game to follow that!
Makes me wish my camera battery hadn't died so I could film the performance of final song Oh La La, such a shame.
