Polsslag 2008

Yesterday every self respected electro freak made their way to ‘de grenslandhallen’ in Hasselt. Polsslag is the name, amazing line-up is the game. Names like Boys noize, the bloody beetroots, goose, dr lektroluv, MSTRKRFT, Erol Alkan all appeared on stage. I can asure you 1 thing: those names in combination with some damn amazing light effects and just the right amount of crowd can make people go mad! Literally! Before we can spoil you guys with an exclusive MSTRKRFT interview (@ polsslag) from our friends at Bounce! magazine, i’ll round up the names with a few youtube’s

The Bloody Beetroots
I expected the most from these guys (damn they simply blew me away). First time i ever saw them, they came to Hasselt with the most stunning set i’ve ever heard!

Dj Mehdi
Famous for his hip-hop/house/electro flavoured sets. I must say i was quite suprised from his performance. I saw him last year at Dour Festival, where in my humble opinion… he kinda sucked. Nevertheless, this time, he nailed it!

Boys Noize
Greatest dissapointment ever! This guy is playing the same old shit for about a year now. For us, die-hards, this simply doesn’t do the trick. What a shame. &down, great track, but it just gets kinda lame when you listen to it for the 11th million fucking time!

Dr. Lektroluv
The belgian lectro pride! Pretty banging set, lots of new tracks! We wouldn’t expect less from the doctor!

Erol Alkan
The guy who’s playlists are always a big question mark. If i can recognise 4-5 tracks in his set, im happy He spinned a pretty dark lectro set yesterday. On the other hand: when the bass makes your guts turn over and you end up notious, i’m pretty sure its time to pull it back a little!
