Rumor has it that Swedish House Mafia is going to be playing at UMF this weekend.
fuckkkkkk

Axwell Ingrosso are playing Thursday closing. Steve Angello isn't in the lineup though he's obviously in town. Eric Prydz is playing Sunday 8-9:30pm on ASOT.

Sunday 10pm closing mainstage is still unknown. Prydz could join them. This could happen.

Prydz was never truly part of SHM though and wouldn't be caught dead playing with those guys at this point.

In case y'all wanna see a stream of Virtual Self's set at Ultra tonight.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zkrq7Kpd1so

They're also streaming Slushii, DJ Snake, Flosstradamus, Axwell Ingrosso, Empire of the Sun and more tonight. (These times are in EST.)



e: Although I'm watching this through the YouTube app on my PS4 Pro so I can watch it on my TV (the biggest screen I have available), and despite saying it's streaming in 1080p, it definitely doesn't look close to 1080p :wtc:

The cameras probably shoot in 1080p but then the stream gets super compressed. I know the livesets they post after are usually really good quality.

Also dubstep is the worst.

There is good dubstep (Seven Lions, Blackmill, Feed Me). But it is pretty hard to find among all of the crap.

They should be shooting at 4K so that when it compresses it actually looks like 1080, not more like an SD stream :negative: It's 2018 for gently caress's sake! And they're making a big deal about how this is the 20th anniversary of the festival.

Still, I'm happy to just get a stream period considering I can't be there in person.

Man, for whatever reason, Virtual Self was way cooler looking when I saw him 2 weekends ago. Maybe being outdoors hurts his visuals. I saw him inside a giant warehouse and I feel like that was the ideal environment for experiencing a set like this.

Dude was a huge introvert and reportedly took Xanax a lot to manage his anxiety. ‘Avicii’ was just a character to help him deal with being on stage. Actually a pretty quiet dude.

I will miss him, there were some great tracks he played live that presumably will never see release now.

Old Avicii stuff pre levels was part of what got me into EDM. I've enjoyed just about everything he's put out, and wish I could have seen him live more than once.

Saw him at the sound academy in Toronto back in I think 2011 - it was an amazing show.

He also seemed to be a genuinely good guy. His music will live on, even if we don't get any more of it.

Nah, you're all good. It just makes me even sadder about Avicii because I can totally put myself in his shoes. Not that I've had any of the commercial success he had, but as far as some of the other stuff.

The new Glitch Mob album is out and it is extremely good so far my dudes :getin:

Ookay's album kinda sucks so far. Thinking he might've been a one-trick pony with Thief. Kinda reminds me of Slushii's album where I enjoyed all of his pre-album content a lot and then the album dropped and was just kind of boring and fell flat and produced zero memorable tracks.

It bums me out because Thief is such a good song.

They have the same agent so that’s not too surprising. Theif and back again were great, but his dj sets felt really uninspired to me, generic pop dubstep so I stopped paying attention to him.
