© South West FourThe build up to one of the UK's biggest electronic dance music festivals is underway with the announcement that Fatboy Slim and Armin van buuren will be headlining this year's South West Four. We have all the details...

In recent years the South West Four festival, held down in the UK's gleaming capital London, has grown to become one of the biggest electronic dance music festivals of the summer. That is if you call what we have here in the UK during June, July and August summer of course. Last year's event was the biggest yet and this year the organisers are looking to build on the success of last year's to make 2010's event bigger. They have made a very god start with the announcement that Armin van buuren will headline Saturday and Fatboy Slim will headline Sunday at the festival this year and that this year's event will be held over two days.

The biggest Trance DJ in the world and one of the most decorated dance DJ's the scene has ever welcome into, Fatboy Slim, otherwise known as Norman Cook. It will be Norman's only London date for this year that is back on the road gigging after a successful time in rehab. The man who created 'Praise Him' and brought the some of the most creative and enjoyable dance music videos for his singles is not one to be missed as his live sets are full of surprises. Armin van buuren on the other hand, you can expect only the finest trance and progressive records that will be blowing speakers to bits well into the winter after the festival.

Right, you’ll want to know more about the festival then. Well read on as we have all the details including ticket prices and where to get hold of them. They went on sale yesterday morning and will be going fast so book early to ensure you get one.

Following six sensational sell-out years and phenomenal demand from the SW4-loving public, it was only natural that South West Four would evolve into a two day spectacular” says SW4 director Danny Newman. “This is the dawn of a new era for SW4 and with everyone off work on Monday we hope you can join us and see out the summer in style!

The View


HEADLINE ACT: ARMIN VAN BUUREN

As the world’s undisputed no.1 DJ it’s a great honour to announce that Armin van Buuren has chosen South West Four for his only London gig of 2010. Armin follows in the footsteps of Paul van Dyk, Carl Cox, Sasha and John Digweed by headlining South West Four for the very first time.

Not only has Armin officially been voted the most popular DJ on the planet for the past three years, A State Of Trance continues to set the standard as the world’s most popular radio show. It now appears on a remarkable forty worldwide FM stations and attracts more than thirty million listeners a week. His record label Armada Music is now one of the premier labels in dance music, whilst Armin’s remixes of The Killers and BT sell by the lorry load. This is all achieved whilst Armin tours the four corners of the globe headlining the world’s leading nightclubs and festivals, holding down an epic weekly summer residency at Amnesia Ibiza and regularly playing ‘Armin Only’ gigs to over 10,000 fans. Currently working on a new album which will be showcased at SW4, this will be the first time he has headlined a festival in the UK. A true landmark gig for Armin, this will be a guaranteed pilgrimage for any trance lover.

HEADLINE ACT: FATBOY SLIM

With SW4 extending across two unforgettable days in 2010, we needed an act that had been there, seen it and done it all to headline the Sunday night. To use one of dance music’s most loved cliché’s we needed an act who needs no introduction. And for us there was only one contender. That man is Fatboy Slim.

As one of the most consistent songwriters of the modern era, not to mention one of the very best remixers in the business and one of the most popular DJs of all time, Fatboy Slim is the big man for the big occasion. From DJing infront of 250,000 people on Brighton Beach and at the Rio Carnival, through to headlining the world’s leading festivals and selling out concert venues the world over, Fatboy Slim’s DJ sets are the stuff of legend. With an astounding ability to connect with thousands of people in one instant, Fatboy Slim is the ultimate performer that we are truly privileged to welcome to SW4 for his only London appearance of 2010.

GET LOADED RETURNS WITH BLACK GRAPE

With SW4 going two days Get Loaded is set to return to its spiritual roots by hosting a series of indoor events throughout the year. New Years Eve at 02 Academy Brixton was a great test for Get Loaded and one it passed with flying colours. A sell out crowd of 5000 attended Get Loaded’s first indoor event in over five years and witnessed an amazing lineup literally tear the roof off the Academy! Get Loaded returns to London’s club scene on Easter Thursday 1st April via another huge event at The Coronet Theatre in Elephant & Castle.

Reuniting to coincide with the release of Shaun Ryder’s greatest hits album this summer and seven years after Get Loaded successfully reformed the Happy Mondays, we are delighted to present the comeback of Black Grape! Coming to Get Loaded this Easter for their first live show since 1997, the return of Black Grape is sure to be an extraordinary and exhilarating experience full of wall-to-wall anthems.
