some words from some belgian oldskool freak:
musically this festival was probably the best i had in many years, where most festivals are expensive with their melodies, this festival did a great job changing that face
thanks for all the melodies to GOASIA, MWNM (woohooo!!!), BPC, FILTERIA and completly new to me, AKD
I noticed many other artists doing a good job aswell, unfortunatly the playlist wasnt tatoed on my chest 
the chillout was amazing!!
Asura, CBL, Solar Fields, HUVA Network, AES Dana, James Murray, KukanDubLagan, Circular and some others i probably forgot
Just a damn shame Hol Bauman was not there to make it even more incredible then it already was.. maybe next year?
anyhow, Ultimae, i hope you guys live forever!!
special thanks to Babis (aka babylon) and his personal chillout proggy dj at the camping site Masha for all the great times! I hope you get home sound n safe!
and ofcourse all other belgian, dutch, australian and greek partypeeps that entertained me for 6-7 days 
to the organisers:
you guys did a way better job then last year!
some things always go wrong and lineups never stay exactly the same on such a big fest..
Keep up the good work and keep on bringing those melodies back to life!!
Thank you greece for the great vibe at this festival!!
Only a rare few have done as good as you did!
Steven

Dont know if i was in the same festival like some of you but......
I dont know how the fuck you know who played and when since the timetable was fucked....
I didnt manage to see any of the artists i wanted to see because the timetable had nothing to do with reality. I supported the first festival bacause unfortunately we live in Greece and even making sth actually happen and not get cancelled or raided by the smurfs is a huge success. Thats why my review last year was positive. But this year its a bit different since i m expecting more than just not getting arrested or loosing my money.
Musically this event was nothing special. Not last year and not now. I supported it knowing that in advance because i wanted to support anything happening in Greece. But when the first year i wanted to listen to 3 or 4 acts and they all get cancelled, when this year i want to listen to another 3-4 acts and most of them are cancelled (Etnica pleiadeians) and the rest play whenever (alternative stage had a generator problem, started late, new timetable was made and not even that followed) i dont know what to say. Mate you fuck up once due to a generator (for fucks sake) problem, you make up a new timetable, and you manage to fuck up again. On the main stage theres no problem, only two-three-four cancelations (sth that is normal for most of you (therefore you should be prepared), and you still manage to fuck up. Sorry guys but thats not successful for me. Maybe for you it is.
As much as i like to support this kind of events, next year i ll go somewhere abroad, where cancelations are considered a problem and where i can actually see the artists that i paid to see as there is a timetable that actually works, and the organisers care about it.
On a sidenote and to be fair the festival was better organised i.e better decoration, better facilities.
Overall a nice small festival that cant get any bigger unless some things are seriously improved.
As for the artists, your job is to play music. Your opinion matters when it concernes the circumstances prepared for you to play, but you cant say a festival was great or not. Cause if you play crappy music maybe you are happy with your self. People maybe ar not. So please dont judge a festival, you r there to make it happen. Not to say if it was good or not. You are part of the festival, not a customer that can express his opinion.
For me highlight of the festival was Astral projection, Asura, Highlight tribe, Banco de gaia, Neurologic twist, Nikitas, Carbon based lifeforms that i can remember of.
Letdowns were al the dark artists (personal opinion though since i dont like this music style anyway)silicon sound, man with no name, eat static, Youth.
I d like to see DNA , Melicia, U-recken, Doc, Tripswitch, Liquid ross, Kick bong, but didnt manage because of majour timetable fuck ups.
Good day to you and good luck in future events but i wont be there for sure....

Forgot to mention the very friendly prices in alcohol food e.t.c. which is a huge plus, and the very friendly security who only were annoying for the bracelets the first two days and very discreet in everything else. As annoying as security may be i can accept it since the organisers of such an event have to make sure their efforts are not exploited in a bad way from some people. You put effort in you expect sth back.
That being said, the complete lack of security the last days of the festival has to be noted in a negative way.
The idea of having security has two meanings. One of them is to make sure the organisers make sure their efforts give sth back (i.e. tickets) and the second is that the security is there to make sure about the safety of the people attending the festival.
For the first part the organisers did well.
For the second part i got the feeling that the organisers didnt care at all since there was none of the security left after the organisers made their money back. Had anything happened to me or anyone else there was no one to go toafter the forth day of the festival
