If you’ve been alive in the last 20 years (aka, all of you), there is someone on this lineup that you love. From industrial darling Nine Inch Nails, to DnB legend, Roni Size, to early dance maven and indie darling, Laurie Anderson, and the amazing Nina Kraviz, this is just skimming off the super-rich top of a very deep musical latte. We are blown away by a lineup of this caliber in our beloved hometown (although, after the last couple of years, this really doesn’t surprise us), and are beyond the moon to pair all this insane light and art scapes that come along with this incredible festival.
