Particularly nice to see Brooklyn-based Pakistani artist Arooj Aftab on the list, the album from last year, Vulture Prince, is a revelation.

Janus Rasmussen of Kiasmos and London-based Kerala Dust are back after recent Dublin shows.

Mad Professor will perform his dub reinterpretation of Massive Attack’s classic Mezzanine album.

A great DJ booking too in Colleen ‘Cosmo’ Murphy, the selector mentored by New York DJ legends, will play a 3-hour set.

David Kitt’s New Jackson will performs a live set and there are slots for Irish favs AE MAK, Anna Mullarkey and Stephen James Smith.
