With its quaint location, reasonably limited amount of visitors, great weather (a notable exception in this year’s European summer season), tasteful line-up, and extra-euphoric audience, the twelfth edition of Germany’s Nachtdigital festival turned out to be a true treasure within the monster rave wasteland.

With Robert Johnson’s Ata and Todd Terje warming things up on the second floor on Friday, Prins Thomas pulling out some ultra-obscure ones, Jesse Rose and Henrik Schwarz giving a very first glimpse into their mutual material as Black Rose, and Larry Heard moving everybody to tears with his beautiful, festival-closing selection of house jams, ND12 had enough musical highlights to offer, to keep the crowd going until the Saxon Sunday sun was in full effect already.

The Red Bull Music Academy Radio team was there with the flash recorders, catching the best bits and sets that are now up and running on rbmaradio.com. Get your personal rewind with the links and gallery below.
