Lightning In A Bottle | Lineup | Tickets | Set Times

 

Australian duo Hermitude have spent the last 14 years shaping what has more recently been dubbed the future beats scene. Though somewhat overshadowed by Flume‘s quick rise, these two have established themselves as definite influencers of the sound. Their fourth release, HyperParadise, received much acclaim from those in the know. We expect their forthcoming album, Dark Night, Sweet Light (out today!), will only bring them further into the public eye.

Backed by a storied history, OPIUO could play LIB by himself and the world would still be better for it. Yet, ever the one to one-up himself, he’s come into 2015 with an ambitious endeavour that seems to be paying off extremely well so far. His new setup features The Opiuo Band (a full live ensemble) and revamped lighting which promises an exceptionally stunning experience of all things art and music.

 

So far, he’s been journeying across Australia with this new project. He’s making his way stateside for LIB. Check the vid below to hear why he’s brought the gang together. See you there in the midst of the magic.

LIB Pre-party | Tickets

 

Lightning in a Bottle draws ever closer. And with it comes pre-parties featuring former and future Do Lab acts as well as a preview of the musical vibes you’ll be exposed to in Bradley, CA. Los Angeles’ leg of the pre-party circuit is stacked. There will be vibey beats a la Astronautica and Coyote Kisses; house-ier inclinations from Autograf and Justin Jay; glitchy bass thanks to Dimond Saints, G Jones, and Nominus; and deep playa leanings via Hoj and KMLN.

 

All in all, it’ll be an awesome dance party. For those of you who aren’t making it out to LIB, let this be your evening escape.

The lead-in to summer often sees new music wiggling its way out of the woodwork as show season reaches full bloom. Here’s a mixed bag of recent sounds and styles for your travels to-and-from said gatherings.

 

Towkio – .Wav Theory

Towkio gathers talent from all over the beat and hip-hop game for this fiery first release. Get it free then catch him at Soulection this Saturday.

 

Ambassadeurs – Can’t You See

Dreamy basslines by Ambassadeurs show us that his skill is in crossing through genres with ease. Trust us, you don’t want to miss him at LIB.

 

Taste Nasa – Time Goes By

The sounds get silky smooth on Taste Nasa‘s latest release off Vitalic Noise. Time Goes By has us swooning to sun-kissed indie-psych-funk.

 

Thomston – Backbone

New Zealand’s Thomston brings on the emotions with his third EP. The R&B tempos and clouded vocals have a certain listless romanticism to them.

 

La Décadance – Subway

Swedish duo La Décadance sprinkle some Scandinavian pop flavor on top of minimal deep house with this latest EP. Take these wide-ranging tracks exploring.

Carmada is the combination of Aussie producers Yahtzel and LDRU. Together, their respective styles blend into melodic tropical trap bass house with a down under flavor that can’t really be compared to.

 

So we won’t try to. All we know is that when they play at the The Palms stage, we’ll be right there in the haze of it all.

In the realm of female producers, Alison Wonderland holds her own as one of the more badass girls in the game. With a rather prolific career learnt from a background in classical, a coming of age in rock, a solo move to DJing in front of thousands, and an extremely anticipated vocal-featured LP on the way, she’s more than earned her place on this lineup.

 

Australia can already attest to her high-energy sets (we had major FOMO during the Wonderland Warehouse Project). But having seen her at a secret house party in LA, we can say that she puts a very exacting effort into keeping the room alive. And that was just a house party. Imagine the painstaking care she’s putting into her Coachella appearance. Suffice it to say, don’t be surprised when she blows your mind on Saturday. We’ll be right there with you.
