Nordic superstars Röyksopp have been added to the Isle Of White Festival 'Bestival' Line-up along with the sublime genius of Saint Etienne and British trio X-Press 2 (aka Rocky, Diesel and Ashley Beedle). IT always good news when someone like Rob Da Bank is invlolved in festival operations. His forward thinking approach to music is evident in his Radio One Radio show and it’s this approach that has seen a diverse line-up assembled. Speaking about the bill he said:“The line-up embraces all the styles I want Bestival to represent - the cream of Indie with the Super Furries, The Magic Numbers, British Sea Power and The Rakes, dance dons 2 Many DJs, X-Press 2, Fabio & Grooverider, Vitalic and Two Lone Swordsmen, off the wall artists like The Go! Team, Saint Etienne and Lee Scratch Perry and the jewel in the Saturday night crown Royksopp! Not to mention country & western, grime, ambient and reggae’s finest too! Bring on the Besti!”
If you want to sample to delights curator Rob Da Bank has put on show, the action will be at Robin Hill Country Park, Newport on September 9, 10, 11.
