Thu, 09/22/2011 - 08:08Really looking forward to seeing DJ Shadow! I've been listening to him since the late 90's and he really peaked my interest in "trip-hop" back in the day. I've seen him perform once in probably 2005 with the "Soulsides" crew and it was a performance to remember!

Thu, 09/22/2011 - 09:06I've been listening to electronic music one way or another for 30 years, and have loved almost everything DJ Shadow has done since even before 'Entroducing'. In all that time, I've never once seen him play. It feels fateful that I fins myself in Chengdu when he's about to headline this show, so of course I have no choice but to be there!

Thu, 09/22/2011 - 09:26well i know i am alone here, but I am really looking forward to Dj JustCharles. I have heard so much about his groovy style and I cannot WAIT to get my narrow butt onto the dance floor when he drops his funky beats.

Thu, 09/22/2011 - 09:57I've seen a lot of the local DJs and like their stuff but I'd be lying if I didn't say I'm most looking forward to DJ Shadow.

Thu, 09/22/2011 - 11:07Looking forward to seeing the new Panda club open in the East! Dj Shadow is always a nice act to see specially because he's been in the game for quiet some time now, Efdemin is also a very nice dj who I saw a couple of times back home (once in a club and on a big festival).. The local dj, foreign as well as local, will be able to pump the beats out of the speakerz and show their talent again. This all said "looks like It's gonna be a great electronic festival" !

Thu, 09/22/2011 - 11:39Shadow of course!
cqscene
Thu, 09/22/2011 - 11:402nd would have to be Liman. Seen him a couple of times, both in Chengdu and Chongqing, and the least I can say is that he fucking rocks!
cqscene
Thu, 09/22/2011 - 11:413rd choice is Chengdu's own Geezer. Was the first quality DJ I saw when I came to China 4 years ago, and if I'm not mistaken he's Chongqing ren which gives him bonus points.
cqscene
Thu, 09/22/2011 - 11:434th is Salumi. Seen him once in Chongqing in a small venue, and at the time couldn't help but think how much better his sound would translate on a bigger stage.
cqscene
Thu, 09/22/2011 - 11:45and 5th is Yang Bing, who's style isn't what I normally get down to, but he's been to Chongqing a few times over the past couple years, and can defo throw down.

Thu, 09/22/2011 - 14:28I'm most looking forward to seeing DJ Shadow. I saw him in 2007 and he was awesome!

Thu, 09/22/2011 - 17:52Like everybody else I'm looking forward to DJ Shadow, as well. I was looking through the Panda Festival line-up hoping to see a familiar name, and then I found just the right thing, just the right thing.
euniko9
Thu, 09/22/2011 - 17:53I don't have a 2nd, 3rd, 4th, or 5th even because I've never heard of any of these bands... First time in China so it'll be good to get familiar with the Chinese music scene!
euniko9
Thu, 09/22/2011 - 17:55Actually I'll say that I'm looking forward to hearing Charlie since I randomly met him at the gym once. Nice guy, hopefully good music!

Fri, 09/23/2011 - 15:50In addition to Shadow, I'm looking forward to checking out some of the local DJ's I haven't yet had a chance to see in my short time in Chengdu. Charlie, Cvalda, Joe, Rabbi, Rsun, etc...
justin
Fri, 09/23/2011 - 15:54Harry Ho, what an interesting name. Maybe I'm looking forward to seeing him too.

Fri, 09/23/2011 - 16:43Really looking forward to 10/1-10/3 Panda Festival

Fri, 09/23/2011 - 17:07I also want to see Charlie. He's a friend but i've never seen him dj before. I hear he's great!

Tue, 09/27/2011 - 09:35I'd be lying if I said I was looking forward to seeing Andy Mac...
Pete
Tue, 09/27/2011 - 09:37Efdemin is banging though, he'd be my first choice
Pete
Tue, 09/27/2011 - 09:38But not Andy Mac
Pete

Rusty
Tue, 09/27/2011 - 21:57Like most people DJ Shadow, heard all the music but never seen him live...so yeehaw bring it on!
Rusty
Tue, 09/27/2011 - 22:01Apart from DJ Shadow I always enjoy Geezer! What's not to like? He's from Sichuan, brews his own beer and plays great music!
Rusty
Tue, 09/27/2011 - 22:06Yang Bing and Terry Tu I saw a few times when I was in Beijing and will be checking them out for sure.
Rusty
Tue, 09/27/2011 - 22:13oh yeah those crazy guys from Grammaphonetics (sic) I would go along and see them too...cos I am a groupie and it wouldn't be right to miss them after seeing them at zebra, hemp, then hemp...then I think it was hemp again? 3 times at Hemp is that right? I dunno. Seems like whenever they are playing things get crazy and my memory gets hazy...
