  • Electric Elephant have unveiled the acts that are set to play their second annual festival this year. The 2009 edition takes place over the weekend of 28-30 August, and will again be situated in the picturesque surroundings of Petrcane on the Croatian coast. As well as getting to sample the sun, sea and sand of the 900 year-old fishing village, the organisers (who were responsible for The Unabombers' now defunct Electric Chair nights in Manchester) will treat revellers to a variety of both DJs and live acts, with a general focus on disco and house music. A notable exception comes in the form of live headliner Four Tet, who may very well showcase some of his forthcoming collaboration with spectral garage icon Burial during his set of melodic electronica. London folk night The Local will also be putting on an array of folk-based live acts, but dance music fans will be much more interested in the DJs that Electric Elephant have in store. Andrew Weatherall will take pride of place at the top of the bill, whilst there will also be sets from Jesse Rose, Joakim, Motor City Drum Ensemble, Andy Votel, Bullion and the Idjut Boys. Cosmic disco originator Daniele Baldelli will also make an appearance, and there will also be a special party hosted by oki-ni.com that will host some of the most lauded record diggers on the scene: Theo Parrish and edit wizard Phoreski. The supporting cast these artists may not be as well known, but with DJs from clubbing institutions such as Lowlife, Aficianado, Basement Boogaloo and Disco Bloodbath all making appearances, you can be sure that they'll be giving the bigger acts a run for their money.
