Rumored EDC Chicago Lineup Leak

Leaked EDC Chicago Lineup

What is rumored to be the EDC Chicago lineup (the headliners anyway) has been leaked. This leak has not been confirmed by Insomniac Events, who run Electric Daisy Carnival, but it is very interesting.

Artists listed include:
Tiesto
Armin Van Buuren
Deadmau5
Kaskade
Carl Cox
Fedde Le Grand and
Richie Hawtin

If this lineup is in fact real then I think it should put any nervous festival goers at ease.

EDC Chicago will be Memorial Day Weekend at the Chicagoland Motor Speedway in Joliet.

Spotlight Chicago: X5IGHT

I’d like to introduce a new segment where I feature up-and-coming Chicago EDM artists starting with house producers X5IGHT.

X5IGHT is made up of Chicago area natives Brandon (18) and Jerry (19).  Although many of their tracks are classified as prog/electro house, they don’t like to limit themselves to just one style of music. Artists they admire include Afrojack, Porter Robinson, Zedd and trance-legend Armin Van Buuren.

X5IGHT is set to headline Foam N’ Glow in Cincinnati  on February 23^rd at Bogart’s.
