Last week (January 19) a new website titled 190823.co.uk appeared online, with Aphex Twin’s iconic logo attached. The date – August 19, 2023 – coincides with the date of Field Day 2023 in London’s Victoria Park.

Aphex Twin last headlined the festival back in 2017, and has not released a full-length album since 2014’s ‘Syro’. He last performed a London show in 2019 at Printworks.

The legendary’s DJs recent activities are often based around new technologies instead, including a team up with British tech company ODDSound in 2021 to deliver a pioneering new synth plugin.

Reviewing last year’s Field Day, its first in three years, NME described the festival in a four-star review as London’s “much-loved festival” that “appears to have rediscovered its groove”.

The Chemical Brothers and Kraftwerk headlined last year in what NME said was “one of its most thrilling curations yet”.
