Hitting the Longitude Heineken Stage at 8p.m on the dot, longstanding British DJ D.O.D started his set in high-spirits, immediately calling out to the crowd: "Longitude, let me see your hands!"

Under a newly sunny sky, the audience gave back with all their might, as D.O.D delved into both old classics and newer tunes.

The energy did not waver for the whole set, despite a surprisingly low amount of stage production - apart from the occasional use of slightly psychedelic visuals in the background. A testament to the level of D.O.D's sound quality.

It was hard not to want to tap your feet when a synthy, electronic melody, set against the backdrop of heavy, deep club beats - or the occasional use of more classic, vocal heavy tracks.

To say the stage production was minimal doesn't equate to calling the performer dull in any way. In fact, it was clear how much D.O.D was enjoying himself, relentlessly dancing with his arms up as if such a good crowd could only be matched in energy, interacting with his audience by shouting over his head-bopping tunes.

Throughout the whole show, D.O.D never let the audience catch its breath, playing banger after banger without a single second of silence or drop of energy, sending the crowd into an almost frenzied state that can normally only be found at the best late-night clubs in main-land Europe.

This breathtaking quality was unwavering, and it's only halfway through the show that he even allowed himself a proper buildup, the music finally quieting down before reaching its climax in an explosion of heavy bass lines that sent shivers down the crowd's spine and made them burst into an eardrum ripping roar.

D.O.D had an impressive capacity to go from classic club tracks, with a fast rhythm set against very melodic vocal line, to beats so heavy that they resonated through your chest, suddenly transporting you into an underground, outside rave and its hardcore bass.

Consistently, he kept the energy high enough to encourage people to stand on top of each other's shoulders throughout the entire set, shouting at the top of their lungs - and even inducing the occasional backflip.

Leaving the Longitude Heineken stage, your ears buzzing in the exact way you'd want them to after a good DJ set, you couldn't help but feel incredibly euphoric - regretting the sudden silence that came with D.O.D's departure.
