STILL No Hot Natured? God damnit

[Jordanp]

Probably because they want a big name to attract some younger kids. Baauer plays a wide variety of grime, hip hop, and trap which fits in perfect with the LIB vibe. I for one enjoyed the hell out of his Coachella set and I am curious to see what he has in store for LIB

How could you like his set? Just listen to that top 40 djmix hour they do on kiss. It's exactly the same. Ugghhh

Kaytranada got dropped sometime between the leak and the official release. Sad day.

Ill die before I listen to anything on Kiss..however his set at Coachella was nothing like that. He dropped beats from Outkast, Disclosure, and Hudson Mohawk not to mention a bunch of other old school hip hop. Although his set was pre recorded that was one damn good playlist. I enjoy the grimey hip hop trap as opposed to some of this crap coming out of Dj's like GTA or Brillz.

Damn, they were already on my "must see" list whilst researching.

Ya mine too. His Boiler Room set is insane. He would have vibed well at LiB.

this will be my first year as well! pretty excited to check out something new. gotta love a good party on a lake too

[WhatLies]

So I'm in a bit of a dilemma here. I have enough funds to go to either coachella or lib this year but I can't decide which one to go too. I've been to coach 3 years now so I'm well familiar with the fest. I love the lineup as some of my favorite artists are making it out to the desert this year. The problem is I don't know if I will have a group of friends to go with and I live in norcal. Thats where LIB comes into play. I got a big group of friends who I went to coachella with my first year who have moved on into the burner/ do lab scene. One of them talks up LIB as though its "heaven on earth." It sounds really interesting but I'd like to know a bit more from other parties who have been. Not someone who probably took hella doses of acid and is disillusioned about how the fest truly is (aka if you went sober). Any input is much appreciated

[IzGewd]

LIB is fucking awesome sober or not. An amazing festival that is definitely something to be experienced. The vibe is awesome. it's extremely relaxing during the day and a crazy as party at night. That being said, I couldn't miss coachella. No can do. Dude, mother fucking Outkast! You will have a great time at both, but the music you see at Coachella will be a 1000x better

[birdiearch]

True story. I think I'm going for the yoga/workshops/scenery more than the music--marginally.

[iammrcandyman]

Lineup can now be sorted by day. If anyone is considering a weekend pass, you might want to take a look.

Does anyone have an image of some set times from last year? This is my first year going, and I'm not entirely sure what I should be expecting conflicts wise.

[alpha_q_up]

have any of you done any research on the venue of it?
cause if you haven't you might be in for a surprise

Looks pretty...

[Electrotek]

Wow this festival is getting a lot larger. Too bad Moby, SMD and Amon Tobin are all DJ sets.

And Moby's DJ sets suck balls since all he plays is shitty electro house bangers.

[Boourns]

Damn, two day passes are sold out. Everything I want to see is on Saturday and Sunday.

After watching his 2013 Coachella streaming, already crossing him off the list....

Well I live in the area and we've been in a drought, hopefully we'll get some rain before the festival but it looks like it to stay there, the lake is only 5% full, so I can imagine you could just walk through the lake into the festival, idk if it's been just me but I've ran into plenty of rattle snakes and wild boars camping out at Lake San Antonio, Also be prepared to drop some cash of supplies if you run out, one of the closest towns is so out there that they'll over charge the fuck out of just regular water

Please enlighten me on some Sunday artists. It's by far my weakest day.

[LongshotJoe]

Please enlighten me on some Sunday artists. It's by far my weakest day.

Maybe we have different interests, but Sunday is pretty stacked for me based on the perusing I've done for far. Gold Panda, Fort Knox Five, Sweater Beats, What So Not (Flume side project), Tokimonsta, and the always reliable Lee Burridge.

Cool. Thanks for the heads up!

On another note, who is everyone looking forward to seeing?

Gramatik, Little Dragon, Phantogram, Amon Tobin, SMD ....

Definitely stoked on Lee. Gold Panda is very vanilla, IMO, but I might give him a shot. Haven't heard much of Fort Knox Five or Sweater beats so I'll check them out.

Other artists I'm excited to see: Simian Mobile Disco, Klatraum, Max Cooper, DJ Tennis, Dirtwire, Stellamara, Break Science, Slow Magic

[alpha_q_up]

No problem, I'm not trying to steer people away from it, I just want them to know what they're getting into

[mikey1313666]

Yeah, I couldn't find very much as far as set times are concerned though.

[birdiearch]

3 weeks to go!

Thanks for those recommendations. Added a few to my list!

[birdiearch]

BUMP.
One week to go.
I'm still in denial!

[atkms7]

I like how we're only at 2 pgs. way to keep it under the radar team

Oh ya, set times are out:
