The stage times for tomorrow’s Field Day festival in London’s Victoria Park were released into the wild this week, so in true music nerd fashion I have crunched the numbers to work out just how much of that awesome line-up we will or won’t see.

One essential port of call for anyone reading this is of course the Holden / Hebden back-to-back showdown which takes place on the Bugged Out! stage at 19:15, with the whole stage line-up looking something like this:

Bugged Out! Stage in association with Resident Advisor:
21.45 Carl Craig presents 69
20.30 Michael Mayer
19.15 Kieran Hebden B2B James Holden
18.00 Erol Alkan
17.00 Benga & Youngman
16.00 L-Vis 1990
15.00 James Blake DJ
14.00 Roska
13.00 Pearson Sound
12.00 Matt Walsh

The observant amongst you may have noticed that that leaves a mere 75 minutes for Kieran and James to dish up their latest greatest, but if that just leaves you hungry for more then you can always head on over to the Bugged Out official Field Day after party in the Hearn Street Car Park once you get kicked out of Victoria Park, where extended solo sets from each of the DJ battle buddies will be your reward in what looks like turning into a bit of an unofficial End reunion. Advance tickets are still available here, although I’m not sure for how much longer; otherwise, an early doors stakeout of the venue may be your best bet…

But I am getting ahead of myself here: what sense is all this talk of after parties, when we haven’t even begun to engage with the multi-faceted joys of the main event? Here follows an extremely optimistic plan of how we will be spending our day, providing that we manage to drag ourselves over to the site in time for the 12pm kick off (unlikely, I know).

But 12pm it is when Faust make their noble bid to rouse the Kraut massive from their beds, getting things going over on the Quietus‘ Village Mentality stage. Dolphin lover (forever) Connan Mockasin also goes head-to-head with your lunch plans on the Laneway stage at 13:50, before the psychedelic callings of Sun Ra Arkestra beckon us to the main stage at 14:20. Come 15:45 it is time to take our place next to our own budding synth prophet Luke Abbott to worship at the altar of Oneohtrix Point Never, followed by the Congotronic explosion of Konono No. 1 back over in the Village Mentality area at 16:55. Then it is back to the home base of the Bugged Out! tent for James’ personal rendezvous with the dashing Kieran Hebden, with only The Horrors threatening to tempt us back out into the wild at 20:50, making sure to head back under the safe cover of our tent for Carl Craig‘s highly-venerated closing 69 presentation. Not forgetting of course to save a little back for those after party warehouse shenanigans!
