💔 a dj set it is 

I never saw their dj set, and I'm sure it'll be great, but their live show is on another level. Typically in their dj sets they play all kind of songs, right? 

One can only hope they'll come back in the future with their live set ❤️�🩹

Don't be disappointed! I've never seen a DJ set either, but I'm sure that it is also a fantastic experience, just different. Yes, they play only some of their songs, and also a lot of music which they like, which inspires them, reworks/remixes they create for other artists, oh, and you most likely will be treated with unreleased Chems tracks as well. Stuff that even us die-hard fans here have never heard, unless somebody in the audience records it (and even in that case, it might only be snippets, or bad quality recordings). So go and enjoy it!

got my tickets for both nights! I'm beyond excited!

Can't think of any songs about Istanbul. So here's one about about Argentina. Chems could play this in their set.
(they do actually sing "Argentina" circa 1:40, oh and earlier than that at 0:30)

And uh, here's another I guess.

Getting close! Less than 10 days away!

I presume our Argentinian brethren are aware that there has been a venue change? If not, then please take note. Tickets for University City will be valid for the show at BUENOS AIRES AUTODROMO as per the post on Bluesky.com:

( @Explud can we embed Bluesky posts here? Ed and The ChemBros are both on Bluesky now and it appears that Ed has pretty much given up on twitter as he got tired of Elon Musk).

Full line up was announced on 27th January. One of the 'support' names is pretty big: Chloé Caillet. She has previously sat in for Pete Tong on Radio 1 when he was away, and she also did a decent Essential Mix in 2023 whch included tracks from Red Axes, Digitalism, The Doors and Pink Floyd (!).
I heard 6-Music's Tom Ravenscroft pronounce her surame like "Sellet", but it's definitely pronounced more like Yippee Ki-Yay MF!

Now yes

There was some discomfort about the change of venue, it's further away and the area is not very nice/safe. But anyway, the Autódromo de Buenos Aires was where I saw them live for the first time, at Creamfields 2007. The anxiety is killing me, there are only a couple more days left to go see them!!

A local radio station is a "media partner" of the show. I don't know what it means—if they are going to broadcast the set...

If they give us access to a broadcast of their set, that would be amazing. Probably more of a chance the radio station will grab them for an interview, is my thinking.

[Stefan]

A broadcast or recording would be amazing!

And enjoy the hell out of the DJ set!

Chems just sent out newsletter they'll have special edition merch for Argentina available in online store for next 72 hours:

It was amazing, guys! The set ended about 40 minutes ago. Very powerful and danceable! The three hours were intense, especially with the 34°C heat. I think it was very similar to last year's DJ sets. I recorded almost an hour of video—some things I didn't remember hearing before and some other stuff. I'll upload it to YouTube when I have Wi-Fi.
