IT IS JUST ME BUT WHERE ARE THE COOL DANCE DJS /ARTISTS

[musichead]

DO WE REALLY NEED MORE OF ARTIST LIKE TIESTO ????? I CAN HEAR ON MY PLAYSTATION..HAHA...JUST JOKING ..TIESTO FANS.

AM I GOING TO FEEL LIKE I HEARD THIS 10 YEARS AGO ... I WISH THERE WERE MORE DJ'S PLAYING THIS YEAR, THAT PLAY NEWER AND MORE CUTING EDGE MUSIC....OH WELL.

LOVE THE LINE UP OVERALL .... THOUGH....ROCKS

[lbbear]

What about Richie Hawtin. He IS techno and his sets are absolutely brilliant. The man is at the forefront of DJing and technology .... check out his Transitions cd and dvd.

[musichead]

NOT HEARD FOR PROBABLY 7 YEARS ...IM NOT SAYING THERE'S NO CUTTING EDGE DJS ....BUT DEF A WEAKER LINE-UP THAN I WOULD EXPECT FROM COACHELLA.

[brycerosen]

INFECTED! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

[daft$tar]

no youre not the only one

there are a MILLION threads about this so hopefully Goldenvoice is listening - and everyone needs to please give it up on the infected mushroom - im sure they will be great and i cant wait to see them - but we want a ESTABLISHED/POPULAR electronica act

who is infected mushroom? aside from having one of the worst band names in history - who can tell me a track to two to download?

[brokenDREAMS]

Keep in mind that the current poster does not have any artist with "in the tent" note next to the name. I think in the coming weeks we are going to witness some heavy hitters, hopefully...Fingers crossed for any of the following "in the tent artist":
Basement Jaxx
Orbital
Underworld
Portishead
Nine Inch Nails

[TickleMeElmo]

No cutting edge DJs? What about Justice or Mike Relm?

[cityzun]

I personally like Cities of the Future, Frog Machine, and Converting Vegetarians. They have a very tribal/ethnic sound to them, similar to Goa Trance, but the last time I dared call them that on a message board I was verbally flagellated. Well, not verbally. You get the idea.

And named after some punk act if I remember my liner notes correctly.

one of my all time favorite DJs. He's fallen off a bit and turned more towards minimal these days, which he definitely throws down. I do hope though that he plays a little more like his older sets for Coachella.

[worldwide2020]

Dance music, right? PVD, !!!, Junior Boys, Benny Benassi, David Guetta, Ratatat, Spank Rock, Digitalism...if you can't dance to these guys you need to have your ears or your legs checked.

yes it is quite spectacular - add girl talk to that list

wheres the headliner tho? thats the question

[joebizz]

The one who caught my attention is D.J. Heather. Have'nt heard her in years, but cant wait for some good ol' fashioned Chicago house! My guess is she will spin early, but there is nothing better than a early buzz, hot as hell, and funky house to start the day. Pure bliss!

well said. wtf are you talking about there isn't anything to dance to? HOT CHIP too... Tiesto is rad too... i saw him in Mexico and it certainly gets the girls moving.

LCD Soundsystem, SOULWAX

[summerkid]

At the top its weak no denying that, but after that its really, really good. Much better than last years Sahara (if you dont include Daft Punk) Last year the only people in the Sahara I was interested in were Daft Punk, Carl Cox, Mylo. This year: Faithless, Digitalism, VNV Nation, MSTRKRFT, and JUSTICE!!! can't wait for Justice. And then sunday you have Soulwax, Hawtin, and infected mushroom (who i dont like but a lot of people seem to be digging).

i totally agree. personally i haven't listened to much techno as of late, but i remember seeing richie hawtin on his Decks, EFX, and 909 tour. Incredible.

he better have his drum machines with him.

[MakeItSantoriTimes]

LCD Soundsystem, SOULWAX

thanks C DUB how the hell could i forget LCD?!

[woogie846]

LCD is my favorite dance act of the weekend so far.

[napaquetzalli]

people...

benassi

klaxons

justice

MSTRKRFT


who said it was a bad dance lineup?

[daft$tar]

i cant wait for digitalism and justice

[waxybk]

Me too!!! He was amazing during those years. I hope he comes ready to play like that.

[MsTekno]

Me too!!! He was amazing during those years. I hope he comes ready to play like that.

I just saw him in Nov in LA and he was anything but minimal - kept us dancing for the whole set and wanting more....

[Trailmix]

Don't forget Faithless. I am sure their set is going to be amazing. I have seen some footage of when they played at the Isle of Wight (sp?) festival and it was great.

[Ardentbiscuit]

I think faithless will be amazing. I saw them years ago at the second Organic.

Also, MSTRKRFT will be amazing.

I am hoping they will add John Digweed or Sasha/Digweed since Digweed is touring with MSTRKRFT anyway.

[bradybaker]

Girl Talk shall provide all the dancing your heart desires.

[ri0tp00f]

Klaxons are the heads of what's called the NEW RAVE...although it's not really much like the old rave...people in the UK go mental dancing at their shows with glowsticks and all that jazz...also have the number one album in the UK now and should be released in the US before Coachella...definitely can dance to them.

Also, if you wanna see geekdance, check out Hot Chip, The Rapture, and LCD Soundsystem.

I can't wait !!

[Kiefer]

'new rave' is so bogus. shit, 'old rave' wasnt all that great.

Add hotchip Too- they are a blast live!! Dj Shadow? (only if he doesnt play his new album) Peaches? GirlTalk? Like the other guy said

[TeamCoachellaHellYeah]

I think the problem with this now is Daft Punk has set the bar so high that it might be impossible to find someone to headline the Sahara tent..Bar Kraftwerks coming out again...But Fatboy Slim might be an excellent choice...Or Boards of Canada but that is asking too much...
