The U.S. edition of Mysteryland is excited to announce its full musical lineup for their second year at Bethel Woods Center for the Arts, the site of legendary 1969 Woodstock festival this Memorial Day weekend on May 22-25, 2015. The musical legacy at these sacred grounds continue to evolve for a new generation with a myriad of curators, tastemakers, and selectors bringing together the very best in today’s electronic music culture and arts. With 85% of camping tickets already sold out, act fast to take part in the community experience and make festival history.


Known as the longest-running electronic music festival, Mysteryland supports genres and talent from all spectrums in the dance music sphere. Mysteryland’s powerhouse headliners Diplo, Dillon Francis, Empire of the Sun, Kygo, Porter Robinson (live), Robin Schulz, and special guest Madeon bring a wide range of sounds that will keep more than 25,000 daily fans dancing throughout Memorial Day weekend on Woodstock’s hallowed grounds, along with fellow Main Stage artists Classixx (DJ set) Claptone, Netsky (live) and The M Machine, plus Bob Moses (live), Goldish, Oliver, Olivier Weiter, Ricoshëi and Tesla Boy. This year’s Main Stage will feature must-see live performances from critically acclaimed duo Empire of the Sun, Porter Robinson (live) and Netsky (live). Recently describing his live show to The New York Times, Porter Robinson, who performs on Saturday, said, I’ll be singing and triggering samples and running multitracks and playing keys... it’s kind of a more sensitive experience.On Sunday, drum & bass superstar Netsky will perform with a full live band, playing a mixture of fan favorites as well as brand new material from his forthcoming third studio album for Ultra Music, due out later this year. Fans can also look forward to a newly designed Main Stage that will debut in the U.S. and make the long journey to Mysteryland editions later this year in The Netherlands and Chile. In Mysteryland tradition, the festivities will close with an special grand finale closing ceremony on Sunday night to celebrate the end of an epic, unforgettable  weekend.


Since its inception overseas, Mysteryland has always been dedicated to serving as a haven for the underground dance music fans. It continues this long tradition with three dedicated stages each day to explore at the US edition. In the Big Top, Matthew Dear Presents Subversions, his avant garde residency  party launched at Verboten nightclub last year with the underlying vision of “performing with artists who inspire me by playing forward, body moving electronic music.” His hand-picked selection of globally revered artists include: Paco Osuna, special guest Maya Jane Coles, Matador, Anja Schneider, Ryan Elliott, and Kevin Castro. For the techno lovers on Saturday on Sunday, Adam Beyer Presents Drumcode will showcase heavy hitters Nicole Moudaber, Ida Engberg, Alan Fitzpatrick, Paul Ritch, and Bart Skils.


New York nightclub Verboten, donned “Brooklyn's revered underground chapel” by THUMP, curates an array of dynamic talent throughout the holiday weekend. The uniquely designed wood & mirrored Spiegeltent makes its return with Verboten hosting underground champions Lee Burridge, Damian Lazarus, AndHim, Eric Volta and more on Saturday. On Sunday, Verboten Presents Flying Circus will feature Ibiza mainstays The Martinez Brothers, Audiofly, Martin Buttrich, Guti (live), Maayam Nidam, jozif, and more.


Verboten’s popular genre-spanning indie series Zeitgeist also takes over the open-air stage for two days, bringing Skream, Lee Foss, Benoit & Sergio (live), Kill Frenzy, Psychemagik and Wild Dark, followed on Sunday with Zeitgeist Presents French Express taking the reigns and laying down the grooves with Moon Boots, Perseus, Agoria, Kink (live) and Super flu. Throughout the weekend, major underground players will share the stage with up-and-coming local NYC DJ & producers such as Bedouin, Stadenco, Ashwin Khosa, Niki Mcnally, showcasing Mysteryland’s ethos of bringing together internationally renowned and emerging artists.


Bassheads can rejoice as one of Mysteryland’s signature stages, The Boat, will once again feature  today’s current bass and trap sounds from the scene’s leading artists including GRiZ, Gramatik, Beats Antique, Savoy, Minnesota, Manic Focus, JackLNDN, and Space Jesus on Saturday while Bro Safari, ILoveMakonnen, TJR, Doctor P, ETC! ETC!, CRNKN, and Gents & Jawns will keep The Boat rockin’ on Sunday. Once again, The Boat will feature a special closing set- The Boat Raid, hosted by Bro Safari’s Animal House.


Fans of The Sound of Q-dance can let loose to the celebrated style championed by Mysteryland for over a decade, featuring faster BPMs and harder sounds, with Frontliner, Noisecontrollers, Bass Modulators, Audiofreq, Mekanikal and Qontest on Saturday. True to form, iconic New York venue Webster Hall brings the most cutting edge names in dance music with Bakermat, Klingande, Goldroom (DJ Set), Bondax, Giraffage, Anna Lunoe, Sweater Beats, Mija, Nora En Pure, Alex English & Webster Hall Residents, and The Unsheathed! on Sunday.


The Mysteryland USA festival will take place on Saturday, May 23 and Sunday, May 24, with the Holy Ground campgrounds opening on Friday, May 22 through Monday, May 25 with exclusive activities for campers. On Friday, May 22, the first unofficial day of the festival kicks off with three stages: The Camping Circus, which houses the official Friday night opening party, hosted by a special headliner - to be announced; the return of the BangOn! NYC bus, expanded to 3 art cars which will include an after-hours silent disco; and new for 2015, the Pineapple Paradise stage hosted by New York locals Brunch Bounce and The Breakfast Club morning parties hosted by Saved By The 90’s.  Holy Ground camping’s official 2015 theme of “Camp DoYaWannaDance” inspired by old school summer camps and classic games (giant drinking Jenga, Connect Four and beer pong), hamster ball soccer, a 20-foot inflatable slide, both morning Deep House Yoga and AcroYoga classes.

30drop - Resonance Vortex EP (Out Feb 9 via 30drop Records)
Following last year’s Vacuum Geometry EP, and this month’s Tools For The Dimensional Step LP on long-established label Detroit Underground (Jimmy EdgarOscar Mulero, Drumcell, Richard Devine, Kero) the anonymous project 30drop brings us a new EP that stays in tune with the evolved, Detroit-influenced sound from previous catalog. Conceptualized around the idea that geometry is a part of everything we do, 30drop applies and understands repetition in sounds and textures as a connection to science. The connection is also visualized in the artwork by Barcelona-based artist Metric72.
Resonance Vortex will be released on Feb 9th digitally and on vinyl.

Planet Rose Invites Electric Deluxe March 28th Doornroosje, Nijmegen, Netherlands

EDP teams up with Planet Rose this March to help celebrate 20 years of Doornroosje's premier house and techno party. As Holland's longest running club night, too many names to mention have graced Planet Rose's esteemed bills -- from luminaries like Daft Punk, Jeff Mills and Laurent Garnier, to underground tastemakers the world over. On March 28 it's Electric Deluxe's turn to takeover Nijmegen's renowned music hall. And as ever there's the whole dancefloor range in tow. Hypnotic honcho Giorgio Gigli and Stroboscopic's Lucy have been part of the Electric Deluxe fold for some time now. Both masters of the trippy, heady end of the spectrum both have more than proven their clout behind the decks. Meanwhile roster signings AnD have gone from strength to strength since the release of their powerful debut album, 'Cosmic Microwave Background'. Since stealing the show at ADE the pair have been smashing their way through Europe with their uncompromising sound. Their live and wholly unpredictable set is not to be missed. Similarly Lakker have been racking up a wealth of distinct and well-received releases for Stroboscopic and R&S Records of late. Their approach to shows are just as hard-hitting and deeply memorable; playing live they are in their element. Finally araD, the long-awaited solo project of Lakker's Dara Smith -- and Electric Deluxe's latest signing, will make its world debut. If his wayfaring 'Haon' release is anything to go by, this one's going to be a wonky ride. Of course Electric Deluxe's own Speedy J will be manning the decks, this time for a meaty three and a half hours. Dancing shoes a must!

The first Stroboscopic Artefacts showcase during Sonar Festival: In the first room Lucy, James Ruskin, Rrose (live), Kandiging Ray (hybrid set), and in a second room Chevel all night long.

Venue: Be Cool

Friday June 19th

Here is the event on RA (and to buy the tickets): http://bit.ly/1DnLwvH

Facebook event: http://on.fb.me/1z5w8A9

 

This June Barcelona will be cast under the hypnosis of Stoboscopic Artefacts as they take on the city alongside its premier electronic music festival. The label showcase will happen at Becool, one of most acclaimed clubs in Spain, and will feature labehead Lucy together with some of the labels strongest players such as James Ruskin, Kangding Ray,  and Rrose in Room 1, while Chevel will take charge of room 2 for an all night session. Not to be missed.

Watch the Dave Clarke official 2014 Tomorrowland aftermovie here:

ABOUT DAVE CLARKE
He may be known as The Baron Of Techno, a moniker given to him by renowned BBC Radio DJ / journalist John Peel, but Dave Clarke has an anarchist streak a mile wide and punk in his soul, having no truck with establishment figures or authoritarianism.

A hard working purist, forward thinking futurist, technology geek, part Gothic and gadget lover who embraced the digital revolution in an early stage while his peers where still sniffing the smell of vinyl, a format he hasn’t used professionally in eleven years. It’s unsurprising he revels in the libertarianism of the World Wide Web. It gives symmetry to his savvy techno vision.

As a talented DJ and producer Dave Clarke will continue his newfound love for making music, gather air miles by the gallon and preach his vision on techno both on the decks and on the radio, whilst never forgetting the long and bumpy journey he had to undertake to get where he is now: on top of the game, respected by both fans and peers and very much relevant in today’s scene. “He might be established, but he will never be establishment”. www.daveclarke.com

ABOUT TOMORROWLAND
This year over 400 artists will once again be appearing on the various colourful stages that have been constructed in the spectacular festival park De Schorre in Boom. For three whole days, 180,000 visitors will immerse themselves in a magical world. The fairytale decor, gigantic dance valley, incredible fireworks and the best DJs in the world will provide an experience like no other. Tomorrowland is being held from 24 - 16 July 2015.

The festival that started in 2005 as a one-day event already had its first edition on foreign soil in 2013: TomorrowWorld in Chattahoochee Hills (Atlanta, Georgia). 140,000 visitors found their way to this magical site in the United States. The originally Belgian festival will once again be living The American Dream this year when the festival is held there for the second time on the last weekend of September 2014.www.tomorrowland.com
