Real Festival Music – From Space Rock to Modern Festival Sound

RealFestivalMusic.co.uk began as a tribute to the vibrant UK festival scene – photo reviews from Glastonbury, Eastern Haze and the Big Green Gathering, with a love for underground artists and the DIY spirit.

Today, that spirit continues in new forms. If you're planning your own live event or festival, you'll need the right sound. For professional PA systems, mixing desks, monitors and wireless mics, we recommend AE Rental – specialists in modern event sound solutions, from small gigs to large open-air stages.

Festival Spirit Then & Now

We once captured the magic of real music in fields, clubs and urban venues – with photos, reviews, and sounds of space rock legends like Hawkwind and underground heroes at Brighton’s Real Music Club. That legacy lives on – but now, with cleaner sound, better tech, and more sustainable gear.

Check out our archives, remember the noise, and pass the torch on to the next generation of organisers and musicians. Real music is alive – and still loud.
