EDC NY Hits Metlife Stadium. May 18-20th. 2012

 

USA’s premiere festival producers, Insomniac Events and Pacha have coordinated the most highly anticipated line-up of the summer, including more than 100 international artists, performers, and theatrical groups. World-class electronic acts from across the globe will gather at Metlife Stadium on May 18-20th for the return of North America’s largest electronic music festival ! After seeing the EDCs last year, we assure you this is going to be MASSIVE !

 

Last year’s introduction to Las Vegas was a remarkable event for Insomniac, gathering more than 230,000 people in the desert for an exciting new chapter in Electric Daisy Carnival history,” said Pasquale Rotella, founder and CEO of Insomniac Events.As dance music continues to explode on a global scale, we’ll continue to push the boundaries of what makes Insomniac unique: a fully immersive festival experience that features hundreds of theatrical performers, interactive art installations, pyrotechnics and special effects, state of the art production, not to mention the largest stage in North America. I’m excited to share what we’ve been developing since last year’s show with our incredible fans.

Electric Daisy Carnival New York  Lineup:
 

Consistently devoted to creating a multisensory experience within each festival, Insomniac has established a unique partnership with Pacha to transform Metlife Stadium into a complete, interactive carnival experience featuring 500 theatrical performers, including fire twirlers, aerialists, dancers, and stilt walkers, plus numerous full size amusement rides and attractions that are free for all ticket holders. This large space will become a fully immersive audiovisual experience with dynamic large-scale art installations creating interactive environments amidst the seven stages, along with state-of-the-art lighting and sound production and a pyrotechnics display nightly.

For more information, keep it locked here on SBB all week and check out Insomniac and Pacha NYC’s Facebook and Twitters!!

Mixmag nominated Eddie Halliwell in its 2010′s ‘Greatest DJ Of All Time’ poll, quoting, “There are people who play records, and there are DJ’s who blow minds, Eddie Halliwell is the latter…who makes every set, no matter how small the club or how big the festival, feel like the closing party of the end of the world.” If that isn’t motivation to get out and see this man play, then we don’t know what is.

In his prolific career, he had never made an original track, only producing remixes. But on August 28, 2011 he released his debut single called ‘Neon’…fun fact :) Check out his FIRE IT UP podcast and get an idea of what you’re in for this Thursday at Pacha.. See you all there !

Tritonal Review. Pacha, NYC. April 19th, 2012

 

When Tritonal took over the decks that Thursday, the loyal Tritonian fans cheered in excitement but the floor was still sparsely populated by usual Pacha standards. For many DJs, this would have led to a lackluster performance, but that was certainly not the case for Chad and Dave.  From the very first track, they gave the crowd an inspired and genre-bending performance that showcased their exceptional talent and genuine love for the music and fans.

The set started on an uplifting note with the Eric Prydz remix of M83′s ‘Midnight City’ and set the tone for the rest of the night. Track by beautiful track, the flow of music was brilliant and encompassed a blend of sounds from all corners of the EDM world, fusing into a final product that is distinctly Tritonian. Their one of a kind melodies and heavenly vocals cut to thick, techy progressive grooves followed by driving uplifting trance…aka a little taste of everything we wanted to hear.

Tritonal LOVING every second

Chad and Dave leave nothing to be desired when it comes to the sheer energy of their performance. They each needed towels to wipe the sweat from their brows after literally breaking it down in the booth. They mixed simultaneously, interlacing arms at some points to better reach their respective dials. Being relatively new to the scene, Chad and Dave’s combined chemistry is noticeably beyond their years. Tritonal has only scratched the surface of their success and are destined to be leading players in the dance music world for years to come. We highly advise a stop at the circuitGROUNDS stage on Saturday at EDC NY to check out their set (we’ll be there all day..) !!

Big thanks to Pacha and Massive Event for bringing the #TranceFamily together every Thursday!
