Also on the live music line up are Everything Everything, Public Service Broadcasting, British Sea Power, Mercury Rev, spacey Californians Moon Duo, and Steve Mason.

Oh man, this is perfect. I'm back in the UK right when this is happening!

Public Service Broadcasting too, that's awesome. If you don't know them, check out The Race For Space, it's like a Rendez-Vouz if it were a rock album

The influence of Jean-Michel Jarre stretches across almost every strand of current-day electronic music. The hugely pioneering likes of Oxygene have informed the work of a generation of electronic producers. We look forward to welcoming a true visionary to Bluedot 2016...
