Ultra Music Festival has announced the initial batch of performers for their annual dance music bachannal in Miami, including easily the three biggest names in dance music—Deadmau5, David Guetta, Tiësto—to headline the event’s first three-day party. Also on the bill are global dance faves The Chemical Brothers, Benny Benassi and Sander Kleinenberg (performing an unusual live set). But beyond these mainstream mainstays, the bill is packed with popular American electro icons (MSTRKRFT, Steve Aoki, Wolfgang Gartner), crossover indie dance stars (Chromeo, !!!, Empire of the Sun, Cut Copy, Klaxons, CSS, Crystal Castles), European techno legends (Laurent Garnier, Carl Cox, Gui Boratto) and dozens of other top acts from Afrojack to, er, Afrobeta.
The event takes place March 25-27 at Miami’s Bicenntenial State Park. This also marks the first year that UMF will not take place in conjunction with Winter Music Conference, a split that continues to cause a kerfuffle in the dance music community. But looking at how UMF’s three-day line-up is shaking out, it looks like WMC is going to be awfully limited in it’s big name talent this year. Which might not be so bad and allow the two-decades old conference to get back to it’s intimate roots.
The current line-up for UMF XIII is as follows:
TIËSTO, DEADMAU5, THE CHEMICAL BROTHERS (LIVE), DAVID GUETTA, EMPIRE OF THE SUN, CARL COX, PENDULUM (LIVE), CRYSTAL CASTLES, RÖYKSOPP, CUT COPY, TRENTEMØLLER (LIVE), ERASURE, CHROMEO, MSTRKRFT, BOYS NOIZE, LAURENT GARNIER (LIVE), FERRY CORSTEN, BENNY BENASSI, AFROJACK, RUSKO, STEVE AOKI, WOLFGANG GARTNER, STS9, SIMIAN MOBILE DISCO, CSS, KLAXONS, SANDER KLEINENBERG (LIVE), ROGER SANCHEZ, !!!, SUB FOCUS (LIVE), SKRILLEX, NERO, HOLY GHOST!, CLAUDE VONSTROKE, HYBRID (LIVE), MARTIN SOLVEIG, CHRIS LAKE, GUI BORATTO, MR. OIZO, TINIE TEMPAH, JORIS VOORN, SUPER MASH BROS., FUNKAGENDA, ALEX GAUDINO, DAEDALUS, AFROBETA.
