We’ve got some really exciting news to share with you! We’ve been working closely with Splash House to bring you THE party of Summer. The team at Splash House has partnered with Goldenvoice to bring back one of the coolest party ideas we’ve seen – a weekend-long sabbatical in Palm Springs. It is all happening the weekend of June 13-15; celebrate the end of the school year and the beginning of Summer!

Pre-sale is open (click here). Act fast!

This will be the second year for the event, and its already looking like a keeper. The event will held be at the brand new Hard Rock, Hacienda Pool Club, and The Saguaro from last year. Just think: three pool parties, shuttles back-and-forth all day long, and music to die for (better than what you’d hear in Vegas, guaranteed). Join us as we kick off summer in an oasis of sound!

Take 2 Entertainment | Tickets

Take2Entertainment’s premier concert cruise is back for another year. The first show of 2014 is next weekend (5/3) and its looking to be mental! Not to say we expected any less. 3 decks. 2 stages. Great music, beautiful faces, and good vibes adrift the Pacific. The last time we were at Boatylicious, we had too much fun cruising the bay. This round is looking to be even better. Check after the jump for music!

The soundtrack of the night will be supported by Kastle (DoLaB at Coachella. One of the better sets), Le Youth (absolutely fitting!), Plastic Plates (nothing but respect, Felix), and more of southern California’s finest residents.

2manyDJs | Soundcloud | Tickets

When I think of the godfathers of modern electronic music, a few names come to mind: Daft Punk, James Murphy, Justice, and the lesser known brothers of Soulwax (AKA 2manyDJs). The amount of influence these guys have had on many of our idols shouldn’t go unmentioned. They’re well respected and highly regarded in the electronic music community by many, but aren’t nearly as recognized as they should be. When taking time out of their studio in Belgium, these two are traveling the world; either with their full band for the sensational live show that is Soulwax or in the brotherly twosome as 2manyDJs.

While they are normally found rocking the larger stages of festivals, seeing a club show curated by these two is a privilege. Not to mention that they’ll be at Sound Nightclub which coincidentally has the best sound in town. LA, we’re in for a treat tomorrow.

Take 2 Entertainment | Tickets

Having missed out on Take 2 Entertainment’s christening of Boatylicious on America’s birthday weekend, we had high hopes that a followup concert cruise would surface. As luck would have it, our prayers were answered when the second installment was announced. The team at Take 2 have gathered a crew of premium musicians to help us end our summer right. On a triple decker cruise-liner. Out on the Pacific Ocean. Partying with good people. What more could you want? Check the tunes after the jump:

GET TICKETS! | Like Wintersalt

Paper Diamond – AirLift
[audio:https://controlaltdelight.com/Music/YOLO98/AirLift.mp3]

Eye Heart SF will see their 4th anniversary of the coveted Streets of SF festival this Monday! This year they decided to take it to a new level with two additional nights of dancing and festivities to lead up to the big show. Thus came the birth of Wintersalt. Not sure what’s so salty about the whole thing. All I see is two nights PACKED with a broad scope of heavy hitting artists and producers that you can see pictured above. So if you’re looking to keep your sodium levels low during this turn of years, better off staying away from this one.

St. Lucia – All Eyes On You
[audio:https://controlaltdelight.com/Music/03%20All%20Eyes%20On%20You.mp3]

I’m most excited to bask in the Northern California air with people who I’m sure know how to have a good time. San Francisco is debatably one of the best cities in the world! The thought of partying up there gives me goosebumps. We’re making the trek up from sunny southern California for this, so holler at us if you want to kick it. Check the set times and preview video after the jump!
