Siren Festival 22nd July 2016

Photo shamelessly borrowed from Mr Lay's Instagram account. Sorry sir ;)

Editors really showed up for this one.

A poignant reminder of just why they're a formidable festival headliner for you now, as we check out the band playing Siren Festival in Vasto. It's an Italian crowd ready for a good time and a band willing to oblige. Perfect. There's just so much energy here, even this far into the autumn of the In Dream campaign. As is usually the case with Italian radio, however, they've made sure that the presenters of this show talk over the start of pretty much every single track. It'll stop bootleggers for sure. No doubt about that. Oh yes it will.

(coughs loudly)

The original version that I ripped on the night had a hiccup right around the encore, which is why I always hoped a new version would surface. Take a bow, survivor69 because this is a version of the show recorded from FM radio and it's glitch free. Many thanks to you for making your work available to the world, it's very much appreciated. You can check out another recording by this taper here at the Archive by following this link. Files are being shared here in their original FLAC format in accordance with the taper's wishes, no alterations have been made. Enjoy the music, ciao Italian Pop Kids ;)
