I wanted to do my last CoachellAltDelight on something more critical. Due to unforeseen circumstances, I haven’t had the essential time just yet to put together my complete schedule for the weekend. One thing for sure, though, is who I start with on Friday. In a world where the number of DJs exceeds the number of white girls dressed up as Indians at Coachella almost ten fold, the Ed Banger Records crew has always led the pack. Showcasing talents like: Justice, SebastiAn, the late DJ Mehdi, Mr. Oizo and even Daft Punk; this isn’t a label to f*ck with. Check after the jump for more!

Happy Sunday friends! It seems like just yesterday that I walked out of the Polo Fields beginning my countdown for Coachella 2012. And here I sit with less than a week to spare until I’m on my way back! Damn. For those of you who haven’t been, it’s quite literally impossible to overhype what’s in store for us next weekend. AH! Plus I’ll have my FlipCam with me. I like to upload everything I record right when I get home after the day. Ok. I gotta relax. Still have a few more days until our journey begins. Without further ado, our tank top winners and the rest of the YOLO list are after the jump:

Radiohead didn’t make sense to me for the longest time. I knew they had a massive, devout following but didn’t know why. All I knew for sure was that they were a sensation live, and it was until then that I realized what they’re about. Been obsessed ever since. And I’ve come to terms with the fact that I could never put into words what exactly you’ll get from seeing Radiohead live. Their music isn’t enough to formulate an opinion around. The videos online don’t do it any justice. Everything comes together in a way that I’ve only seen them create. And that was four years ago! I can’t imagine what they’ve added to it. Pretty comparable to when I saw Muse live…Just different. Do NOT miss them on Day 2!!

Posters will be available tonight.

It’s that time of the month people. Well, not exactly that time, because this is something to actually look forward to: Jelly Filled Fridays! We got something special in store for you this month, though. Been putting off thinking about Coachella until this week, because it’s just never close enough! Tonight’s music will feature a special Coachella set from Groove Monsters’ Time Machine & ThreadSence‘s Noel B in the basement. Mainstage will showcase the funky talents of Chronic Mncher, G-MO and Jubei. It’s going to be a dance party, y’all. Check the giveaways and special info after the jump!!

HEY! Getting caught up on this a day late, because I’m just coming out of my coma from HARD LA…or at least I think I am? Was able to round up 40 of the homies to take with us, and it was worth everything that went into it! My only qualm with the night was Oliver‘s set. I don’t know if it was just me or what, but it should have been way louder for their slot. You can’t f*ck around with low volumes for disco sets. Need to feel every bit of that bass. PHILM and I went up front for A-Trak, and the bass was nearly overwhelming. As it should be! Whatever. Jack Beats new set was awesome. Fresh. Clean. A-Trak, I mean, just look at that picture! Imagine it inside the Wiltern. Ah. Another night for the books. Enjoy #89, yo!

Hey guys! Sorry this one is coming in late. I was stuck on UStream watching Louis La Roche and AMTRAC throw down a really, really, ridiculously funky set. “Stuck” actually isn’t a good word for that. I was pretty bummed when it ended actually. Can’t wait til Louis makes his way to LA! Until then, we got HARD LA on Saturday, COACHELLA, T.E.E.D and The Twelves in May. Life is good. Enjoy #88:
