James Holden, Jon Hopkins, Oneohtrix Point Never and more on the bill for the Barcelona festival

The ever-excellent Sónar festival have announced the first 25 names for their main festival next year, taking place in Barcelona from 12-14 June 2014. Alongside a rafter of Quietus favourites, including Jon Hopkins, Oneohtrix Point Never, James Holden, Evian Christ and Matmos, there's a sterling line-up of Four Tet, Caribou, Jessy Lanza, Gesaffelstein, Downliners Sekt, Copeland, Nisennenmondai, Woodkid, Bonobo, Moderat and I Am Legion.

At the top of the bill are Massive Attack, who have "a brand new show which will move a step further along their ongoing audio visual exploration of agitation propaganda and technology", and Richie Hawtin, performing his Objekt live show under his Plastikman guise.
