Not content with having headliners of the calibre of Björk, LCD Soundsystem and The xx, new Victoria Park festival All Points East has just announced a big swathe of supports. And they've kinda smashed it.
New names joining LCD Soundsystem, Phoenix and Yeah Yeah Yeah on the Friday include funk brothers Chromeo, spellbinding hip hop innovators Young Fathers, Nick Murphy (fka Chet Faker), Superorganism, Hookworms plus DJ sets from some of the best in the world, such as Gerd Janson, Roman Flügel and Hercules & Love Affair.
French electro gods Justice, breakout London rap superstar Stefflon Don, full-throttle jazzers BADBADNOTGOOD and very brilliant DJ and collector Hunee join the Saturday line-up, playing amidst previously announced acts like Sampha, Lorde and The xx.
And then on Sunday, the returning Friendly Fires joins previously announced acts like Björk, Beck and Father John Misty, while DJ heroine The Black Madonna (pictured above) also joins the bill.
