SAHARA REVIVAL WISHLIST 2013!!!

[cyborgzombie]

Hoping we can get some real electronic artists for next years coachella, this year was pretty much a joke besides a few exceptions(modeselektor killed!!!), so please add what you feel would save the sahara next year....

I'm praying for:

Underworld.
Fatboy Slim.
Moby.
Goose.
Shinichi Osawa.
Digitalism Live.
Soulwax.
Simian Mobile Disco Live.
Japanese Popstars.
ZZT.
Carl Cox.


Farfetched, but still gotta dream...

Kraftwerk.
Aphex Twin.
Boards of Canada.
Juno Reactor.
The Prodigy.

Modeselektor wasn't even in the Sahara tent.

But you're into breaking the rules

So

[cyborgzombie]

Fuuuuuuuck you're right, I was pretty wasted day 3. Well then Let's just agree that Sahara this year was a major letdown, rest of the fest was blast though...

I could definitely go for all of those along with...

The Chemical Brothers (Live or DJ Set)
Groove Armada
Basement Jaxx
Richie Hawtin
Dave Clarke

[SONR801]

Not sure if the Sahara would be the best place for them, but i fully support it regardless.

[nyarlathotoats]

Storm Queen
Azari & III
Four Tet

and everything else that's been mentioned previously.

Now that GV knows that they can easily sell out both weekends, I think they'll give us a much broader EDM lineup this year. I could be totally wrong and they could give us Avicii, Afrojack, and Brostep again, but I hope I'm not.

[GuyInTucson]

Booking acts like Avicii and a bunch of dubstep DJ's won't be a big problem to most attendees if they just mix in a portion of the acts being discussed in here.

True and I'll be one of those attendees that doesn't have much of a problem with it. Most of the EDM that we'll be interested in will probably be in the Mojave though.

[davrone]

Nicholas Jaar got kind of housey at FYF. I'd like to see him there. Tanlines would be fun too.

This!

You're all wasting your time with these dumb wishlists. Not a single act mentioned will be booked.

Brostep is over, it's all about dat Trap music brah

[SepaGroove]

Actually, I could see a lot of the acts that we're mentioned being booked.

[theresalwaysone]

Because........?

[Phunkevil]

You're all wasting your time with these dumb wishlists. Not a single act mentioned will be booked.

Why? Because you didn't like the overall 2012 EDM line-up? Thought so.

[CrimesceneCookie]

Because........?

because gv knows they don't have to shell out $$$ for the muppet brigade djs in order to sell out two weekends.
I remain hopeful that the geezers will be thrown a bone or two in 2013.

[DFrank]

It doesnt really matter what they book. It'll sell out.

[grannock]

Steve aoki, dillon francis, axwell, bassnectar, mimosa, big gigantic, perty lights.

Skrillex and fiver on the main stage fri and sat.

Best edm lineup in te history of music festivals, so glad i have a ticket.

[Phunkevil]

1 out of 13 or so Coachella line-ups had a down year for EDM. This obviously means Coachella will never have good EDM acts ever again. It's so simple.

I don't know. The EDM line-up was so bad in 2012. There's no way it could be good in 2013 or beyond.

[Iamwelting]

Booka Shade
The Twleves

[Bons222000]

Just out of curiosity, and I'm completely open to being told I'm wrong, but which bigger name electronic acts that were actively touring the US in 2012 do you think Coachella missed out on so badly? I tend to think the 2012 bookings were more a product of what was available than a conscious decision to go cheesy. I know there are a million smaller acts nobody has heard of that could have been added but my question is more about names that would have been 2nd-3rd liners.

We did get a few good DJ acts that no other festivals around were getting last year. Modeselektor, Shadow, Flylo, Amon Tobin, SBTRKT, etc all had solid sets and aren't part of the cheese everyone hates.

[Bons222000]

Also, I haven't seen anybody mention this, but does anyone else think deadmau5 could play before a headliner on the main stage? I could definitely see deadmau5 or Skrillex filling the Justice time-slot from this year or maybe subheadlining.
