Skrillex & Boys Noize favoured plug in

Every now and then, a plug-in just slips under the radar. Released last year, Sugar Bytes' Cyclop came recommended by the likes of Skrillex and Boys Noize, to name just a couple of heavyweight users.

As one of the final dates in the festival calendar, the latest addition to Croatia’s coastal party scene has promised a fine coda to the summer since its mouth-watering lineup dropped at the start of the year. Held in the same spot as older sibling Outlook, which celebrated its fifth year the week before Dimensions opened its doors, it’s been billed as a more highbrow offshoot – in place of Fat Freddy’s Drop on the lineup stands Nicolas Jaar, Skream gives way to Carl Craig and there was nary a New Era cap in sight.
