EDC Las Vegas: What To Expect
A full weekend of amazing sights and sounds is coming your way. Consider this a visual introduction.
EDC 2019 = Epic
Back in August of 1997, the very first EDC was held in Los Angeles, with 6000 people attending the event. Big party, right? Well check out this year’s stats and prepare to have your mind blown: 450,000 people from 96 countries showed up over three days in Las Vegas. That’s roughly the population of freaking Miami!
This was the 23rd year of EDC, and my, how things have changed. A ticket to the fest cost just $20 in 1997, and it was for one night only—EDC expanded to two days in 2009, and three days in 2011 when it moved to Vegas. This year, the entertainment ran from dusk ‘til dawn, with over 250 of dance music’s most notable names hitting the multiple stages.
The point is, EDC Las Vegas is the biggest dance music festival on the planet and it’s not to be missed. If you DID miss it, though, catch up on some of the video fun that LiveXLive has prepared for you by going here: https://www.livexlive.com/live-events/festival/edc-las-vegas
Alesso: The Songs He Loves
Alesso was the King of Kinetic Field at EDC Las Vegas, and we happen to have the inside info on the music he’s listening to right now. We asked the Grammy-nominated musician to curate and host his own radio station, and he jumped right in with his picks. Hear tracks from Flume, Calvin Harris, Duke Dumont, Daft Punk and many more, plus tons of Alesso’s own music, right here.
Tiësto Shares His Faves
Allow us to draw your attention to the EDM superstar who conquered the Kinetic stage when the clock struck midnight on the second day of EDC Las Vegas, 2019. Tiesto.
By happenstance, we invited the man that Mix magazine dubbed “the Greatest DJ of All Time” to host his own radio station. On Tiësto: I Am The DJ, he plays his favorite songs and tells the stories behind them. We cornered him in studio in Vegas where he broke down tons of his own tracks and collaborations, as well songs he admires from the likes of David Guetta, Clean Bandit, and his “buddy” Martin Garrix.
