I've never been, but I wanna go. I would have to go alone though so idk, I hate doing stuff alone. Plus I never see people with my body shape at music festivals so I would stick out like a big, fat sore thumb 😂😂
There's tens of thousands of people at these events with allllll types of bodies so you will definitely not stick out in any way!! People aren't there to judge you 💗Embrace who you are!
Just something to watch out for, glitter does contribute to microplactic pollution. There are biodegradable varieties out there that are still affordable
Not sure Knock2 should be categorized as trap/dnb. Definitely more bass house as the majority of his tracks has a house groove/tempo but yes, his niche/fan base would definitely bleed into trap I can see that.
4 years later and i think you were right about dnb getting a little bigger in the US. I noticed that during the pandemic, as most people were spending their time online, people were getting introduced to Internet-based EDM genres like Breakcore and Glitchcore, which I would say fall under DnB/Jungle as subgenres, just more intense and hardcore. Artists like Machine Girl, Sewerslvt, and Goreshit, as well as "nostalgic" set mixes on RU-vid involving liquid and atmospheric dnb from video games, became superrrrr popular over the pandemic. although I don't hear this kind of music much at festivals, raves, or other events, I have noticed that the general American rave community at least on the internet are definitely more aware of DnB, especially with bigger DJs including breakbeats and heavier drums in their songs :)
This price point is highway robbery: especially considering the fact that Resorts World usually has affordable rates relative to most of the resorts around it (Wynn/Encore, Venetian/Palazzo, Fontainebleau). I really enjoy Resorts World and think it's one of the best resorts on the Strip between having one of the three best restaurant portfolios, one of the five best lounge portfolios, one of the better dayclubs and affordable rooms often for its Hilton and Conrad towers (Crockfords is another story)................but I would just stay there Sunday-Friday most any other time of the year for one-third or even one-fourth of the price of this. When it comes to resorts in close proximity to the other EDC shuttle stops: the STRAT, Sahara and Virgin are all great choices, and the Rio is in the midst of a massive resort-wide renovation by its new owner/operator Dreamscape since taking over from Caesars Entertainment in October of last year and will also be fantastic and good as new in no time. You could book a room Thursday-Monday at STRAT or Sahara especially for a fraction of the Hotel EDC pricetag and also still have a well-rounded resort experience.
If you ever do Beyond Wonderland at the Gorge in Washington State bring tons of sunscreen, gallons of water, and ice. June in central Washington is hoooooooot. The day is boob sweat hot…lol. Then usually around 6-7 pm the wind starts ripping thru so temps will drop at night. Going from 100+ day then dropping to 60-70 at night feels cooold.
I have random questions because I am preparing for my first camping festival: Where do you toss out full trash bags? Is there a process of what campers do when we have a full bag of trash? Does ANYONE do anything to keep valuables locked away when they aren't camping near their cars? I know I can lock my tent but do you guys do anything further than just hiding valuables within your suitcases?
I think every festival is different. The ones I've seen people just pile them in/near the trash cans, but I know some festivals have bigger trash or donation drop off areas. For tents, I'd say do the locks for sure and then try to keep anything really valuable on you inside the fest. I wouldn't leave wallet, sunglasses, jewelry, etc behind
Best tip: DON'T OVERDO IT WITH THE BOOZE and/or DRUGS. I've had to leave both Countdown and a Desert Hearts event because I got too messed up to the point that I would've had a freakout if I didn't leave. (Don't mix booze and psychedelics!)
Quick question, there's gonna be a show there on June 24th ages 16+ could go. My cousin who wants to go badly is 15 and I'm 19. Do you think I could bring him along?
You tearing up at the end of day 3 has me tearing up weeks later! EDC is incredible. I agree that Friday is always a gong show - you can feel the anxiety of the whole fest but it gets so much better! LOVE this recap!! Glad you had an amazing time back at EDC! 😊🩷
