Indie Dance, Indie Electronic, and Nu Disco... PLEASE?!

[Deegleberry]

Miami Horror, Bag Raiders, Digitalism, and all the other electronic band acts should not be playing DJ sets at festivals. It's like buying a ticket to Coachella and then staying home and watching it on Youtube. A potentially awesome time thrown away in favor of something very average. It's just not the same.

Agreed. Miami Horror, however, seems to think they can DJ now. I'm hoping they get tired of it really quick and pick the instruments back up.

I blame Calvin Harris. He created disco live in the gobi and then destroyed it four years later in the sahara with rihanna.

Bland, flat, uninteresting. I don't know why seeing him once irritated me SO much. But it did.

He seemed fine at DEMF last year though.

[NTellier85]

This new Flume album is fantastic!

Is it too soon for Chromeo to come back? They're just so fucking good live.

You've seen him twice, and he was fine at DEMF.

I'll admit he was TERRIBLE in SF though.

I don't know anything about Nu-Disco, but the internet tells me this new Lindstrom album I'm enjoying is Nu-Disco, so I could very much see myself getting down to him on the Polo.

I also know nothing about nu-disco, but based on your comment, I've been listening to the new Lindstrom album and some of his older stuff, all day and loving it! So thank you. I too would very much enjoy checking this out at the Polo Fields. So, is Madeon considered nu-disco? Because his stuff sounds kind of similar and I also enjoy it and enjoyed his set last year.

[GuyInTucson]

Madeon is closer to cheese electro than Nu-Disco but he does play some nu-disco in his set.

SUPPORT. dubstep has its place but i REALLY miss some of the wub free dancey good time sets we used to have more of.

I blame Calvin Harris. He created disco live in the gobi and then destroyed it four years later in the sahara with rihanna.

i still cant believe this. dude goes from unique live dance party good times act to yet another generic just press play dj (albeit with low self esteem). yes, the crowd in the vid is eating it up but lets not forget this is the same crowd that thought araabmuzik was nero just because he played a clip from "promises", true story bruh

I hope not. Their new album should be out next spring/summer

havent heard of a single artist in this list other than Tanlines and Blondes, both of which I saw live in 2012 and completely approve of for Coachella!

EDIT: I missed Body Language, they also get my approval.

[Electrotek]

Rather have some of the more banging funky filtered disco house personally.

i'd be SHOCKED if Azari & III or DJ Harvey don't end up on the lineup..

Hoping to see Mumbai Science on the bill....put out constant bangers the past few years.

Although I would definitely see Mumbai Science if they were at Coachella, they certainly have no place in this thread.

[WallflowerFood.com]

These Aussies might be much too poppy for a lot of you, but I wanted to post their latest single because it's very much an indie/dance track. Big house synths from a band. Album due in 2013, I'd definitely be down to check them out if they were at Coachella.

Could you guys please try to put these suggestions in OP's chart from now on?

I love this, but can you make it so the names don't get split up and jumbled around in it??

[Deegleberry]

This thread needs some love for Perseus. Amazing EP release in 2012 and just did the first EM of 2013.

can we get Burial and Andy Stott at coachella? those two would both have better electronic sets than anybody has had in a while at coachella (except maybe sbtrkt last year, i didn't see how it was)

[ayejayem]

I really hope Bag Raiders(live) and LeMaitre (probably a dj set) come down for Coachella this year. They're one of my most anticipated acts to be on that poster and I hope GV doesn't forget about them after booking the Hardwell's and Deadmau5's of the world, but I just don't think Goldenvoice can say no to all the press opportunities/exposure that come with having Rihanna and Usher (ugh, I can pass on David Guetta at coachella), etc coming to perform a song or two of a collab. That just might be the pessimist jaded person in me, but I will seriously be overjoyed if Bag Raiders, LeMaitre, or anyone if those acts above show up.

As far as I know, Burial doesn't do live shows.
