Paul Kalkbrenner's confirmation is a really great step in the right direction for electronic this year! I don't know how many of you listen to him but he's personally one of my favorite dj's. With the boom of electronic music in this country and the fact that SHM basically headlined friday last year i think it's safe to say we'll have another electronic headliner/sub-headliner. My guess is either Deadmau5 or Skrillex. REALLY HOPING FOR DEADMAU5!!! Always hoping for Daft but that should go without saying. Here's my wishlist for the electronic at coachella this year, doesn't matter what tent it's in i just wanna see it...
APHEX TWIN (top ten bucket list right here for any genre)
Bassnectar
Big Gigantic
Bonobo
Deadmau5
Eskmo
Four Tet
Glitch Mob
John Talabot
Jon Hopkins
Magnetic Man
Opiuo
RL Grime
Rustie
Shlohmo
Shpongle
Star Slinger
Tipper
Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs
Tycho
Mad list, praying for the bulk of this!Quote:

A Shpongle live set would be epic, but is not gonna happen (Simon has said that there's no plans on another live set anytime in the near term). I'd take another DJ set. Magnetic Man was . . . not good at all in 2011, sadly. Aphex Twin would be f'ing amazing, but I cannot imagine him playing in the Sahara at this point. An Aphex Twin set would probably scare the shit out of the kids who are hanging out in the Sahara to catch mainstream house or dubstep act.Quote:

With that said, I'd like to see Pretty Lights, Boys Noize, and Richie Hawtin on the lineup, and I think all three are pretty likely. Whether they'd be in the Sahara or elsewhere, I'd bet on elsewhere. I'd kill for The Prodigy or The Knife (or Aphex Twin), but I doubt they'll play. Since we'll never get Burial, I'd love to get Holy Other or Balam Acab; something like that, after dark, in the Gobi tent would be awesome. I have no idea if Amon Tobin will tour in support of the Two Fingers album, but the stuff from that that he worked in to ISAM 2.0 was fantastic, so I'd love to see a whole Two Fingers set. And, while I don't love his latest release, I'd still love to see Apparat on the lineup (Moderat would be even better, but highly unlikely).
Coachella are going to need to adopt a new stage, sort of how Pukkelpop does it, Live band electronic in 1 tent, DJ set electronic in another tent.... but Coachella should have.... Respectable electronic in 1 tent, and Brostep Sahara as another....
Or shrink the sahara considerably and eliminate the clown bookings ... saves oodles of money. No need to have dance music sprinkled throughout the fest at all times of the day.Quote:

I think the answer is yes b/c the festival seems to now attract a great deal of people eager for "the experience" rather than the music
as it stands, I think GV is wasting a spectacular amount of money on these sorts of acts. Hurts their bottom line, hurts the brand in the long run, and strikes me as completely and utterly unnecessary.
Coachella attracts clowns who don't like EDM. So it doesn't even matter who is on/not on the lineup anymore. People go to Coachella for the mere fact its Coachella and end up seeing 2 bands over the weekend and 2 afternoons blacked out in the beer gardens
right ... so why not book quality acts as opposed to guff acts? added bonus: when it comes to dance music, the latter are mostly cheaper than the former.
We've whined so much, I'm curious to see if it will have had any effect.
We need to create about 40 more threads that are a minimum of 25 pages before the lineup is announced so we can get Daft Punk

Sure, you always see a handful of people who are too messed up (on something) for their own good, but I can't say that I've really noticed a bunch of wasted dudes stumbling around. Or at least not enough to think it's a typical occurrence or a problem.Quote:

So many people who get hotels/condos end up partying there the whole time and missing most of the day by leaving the condo at 4/5pm and getting into the venue at 7pm.
This last year, there was quite possibly more asshats than I had ever experienced at Coachella in my 9 years there. Way more bro rape packs roaming around this year.
Bingo.Quote:

Perfect. Nothing better then actually remembering all the great moments you create for yourself at a show.
It's funny because during those 3 days of Coachella I'm drunk the whole time, except in the a.m.
Not only that, I'm usually combining alcohol with other substances, and yet I always remember everything and am coherent the whole time.
