Joining them, the ever-euphoric HAAi, trance powerhouse Job Jobse and the trailblazing duo of Maribou State playing an exclusive DJ set, in addition to their headline live slot at West Holts.

The weekend line-upwill see multiple takeovers in the form of Avalon Emerson’s, 9000 Dreams label, electronic imprint DH2 and Mexico City party collective Sunday Sunday, with each presenting a roster of associated acts, friends and musical likeminds.
