He was also announced as the winner of Insomniac Records' Discovery Project LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / July 24, 2020 / Figment, an Electronic Music Producer & DJ Based in LA and host of the "Not Figment" Podcast, Turns Heads At Insomniac's EDC Festival. To learn more about Figment and read the full story, visit: https://edm.com/features/5-artists-from-edcs-virtual- rave-a-thon-who-stole-the-show A self-taught music prodigy, Figment has quickly made a mark in the electronic music scene in Los Angeles. After playing a few shows, he quickly caught the attention of major promoters such as Insomniac (owners of Electric Daisy Carnival and Beyond Wonderland), who took note of Figment's uniquely studious and authentic approach to electronic music. He now regularly plays at some of the biggest clubs in LA including Academy in Hollywood (where Tiësto and MK will perform this Spring) and Exchange in Downtown L.A., where superstar dance music acts ranging from Dillon Francis to Chromeo perform regularly. Figment's popularity has continued to grow throughout the past few months. He's quickly reached 100,000 followers on Instagram, and continues to be booked in shows. His most recent accomplishment is one to be proud of: EDM.com named him one of the top 5 artists who stole the show at Insomiac's EDC festival. This is a huge deal as the festival boasts some of the biggest names in the electronic scene. According to EDM.com, Figment can be described as "one of the undiscovered gems on the lineup" that kicked off the EDC Festival stream by "quickly commanding the largest audience of the weekend for a Discovery Project artist" (EDM.com). The site describes his set as one that avoids drop-heavy sounds and instead favors dystopian techno that created a "loopy, mind-bending vibe". According to Yahoo Entertainment, "Figment is no stranger to collaborations with Insomniac having played several live events for them in the past including opening for Sasha, Loco Dice and Grammy nominated musical act Camelphat". Despite the fact that he has collaborated before, the EDC festival was by far the largest audience he's played for. The publication added that "Figment's unique sound will cement itself through exposure at festivals like this". And that it sure did. Figment obviously stood out and that's why he was named one of the top 5 artists who stood out at the massive livestream concert. EDMHouseNetwork.com reported that Figment was also the winner of Insomniac Records' Discovery Project, beating out more than 800 musicians to be crowned the winner by obtaining the most votes from viewers of his live performance. Figment prides himself on his deep love of music and intellectual approach to his craft. "Everything that I do is rooted in my love for music and sharing it with people. I have studied the work of techno disruptors such as Dopplereffekt, East End Dubs, Detroit Grand Pubahs, Gesaffelstein, and other similar producers," he explains. About Figment: Figment is a Madrid born electronic music producer who prefers to let his work speak for itself. He prides himself on mastering the craft of DJ'ing. He's known to insert jungle vibes into the modern Los Angeles nightlife culture.

  • Satan's Trance Media & Magic Final Exam Colleen Viana 12
    SATAN’S TRANCE MEDIA & MAGIC FINAL EXAM https://vimeo.com/55339082 COLLEEN VIANA 12/11/12 Sensation can be defined as the mediation of body and world. It enforces and impacts a premonition of what our bodies experience upon some type of contact. Thus, it allows the body to be opened up to other forces and becomings that affirm in and as the future. This concept, posed by Elizabeth Grosz in Chaos, Territory, Art: Deleuze and the Framing of the Earth, is quite eminent in the subject of magic. The quandry of it as the mediation of object and experience, or science and religion, is what drew me to this video experimentation of the mediations created by media in occult and horror film. While sensation is, perhaps, the only state of consciousness that is impossible to scientifically measure, as are the limits of magic, I find it more valuable to visually see how it can be created/manipulated. The juxtaposition of horror film/television clips, and electronic music (with cosmological and haunting characteristics), and documentary footage from raves/electronic music festivals (that possess qualities of the occult) is experimented in this project. The latter adds an extra layer to this research, paralleling a cultural music phenomenon with the magical representations and rites defined by Mauss. With these media devices combined, I hope to embody this sensory experience that Grosz explains “as the contraction of vibrations...the forces of becoming-other” (Grosz, 80-1). Essentially, how can we experience Hollywood-defined magic and the magic associated with music and rave culture differently? In this video montage, I aim to highlight the three components of magic presented in Mauss’ A General Theory of Magic, in relation to the electronic dance music (EDM) culture.

LAS VEGAS, NV--(Marketwired - Dec 4, 2013) - The three-day Electric Daisy Carnival (EDC) held at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway in June 2013 pumped an estimated $278 million into the Clark County economy, according to an economic impact report released today by Beacon Economics, LLC. With incredible growth since its premiere in Las Vegas in 2011, Insomniac has generated more than $621 million dollars for the Las Vegas economy. The study, commissioned by Insomniac, revealed that the third annual event generated $136.9 million in attendee spending, a 38 percent increase from the 2012 event. Nearly 95 percent of attendees traveled from outside the Las Vegas area for the event, accounting for an estimated 92,000 hotel room nights alone, generating $25 million in accommodations. Additionally, fans spent more than $45 million on food and beverage, $22.1 million in transportation, $19.6 million in gaming, $13.1 million in entertainment and $11.8 million on retail spending. "Each year our goal with EDC Las Vegas is to improve the fan experience and I'm so happy that, as we continue to improve and grow, that Clark County continues to benefit too," said Pasquale Rotella, founder and CEO of Insomniac. "The Insomniac family and our fans have truly embraced Las Vegas as our home during EDC Week in the City, and the idea that the fans get to have fun while also creating hundreds of millions of dollars for the local economy is truly a win-win situation.

  • The Queer of Color Sound Economy in Electronic Dance Music
    The Queer of Color Sound Economy in Electronic Dance Music Blair Black Within electronic dance music cultures (EDMCs), musicality and experi- mentation have been indebted to black and Latinx DJs of color since its inception in the 1980s. Even today, queer DJs of color continue to push the envelope of experimental EDM by showcasing dance music from the “global south,” centering remix styles that border between hip hop and EDM, and sampling cultural references popular in queer communities of color. This article explores music’s complex entanglements with identity and community for queer people of color in underground electronic dance music scenes. To be specific, the individuals within these communities self-identify as racial/ethnic minorities on the genderqueer spectrum of non-normative gender and sexual identities (gay/lesbian, trans, non- binary, etc.). Moreover, I argue that these socio-economic positions act as an impetus of a sound economy – the shared system of socio-cultural aesthetics – for queer communities of color in EDM. The first section dis- cusses the identity politics that underlie this sound economy by tracing how intertextuality allows DJs to display these minoritarian1 perspectives. I then highlight why (re)centering racialized queer identities is radical by tracing EDM’s political shifts. Specifically, I highlight how narratives sur- rounding EDM changed due to the demographic turn in Europe during the 1990s. The last section explores the re-emergence of pivotal queer DJs of color and the scenes they founded in Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York by focusing on the flows of culture and people between cities to point to a more extensive global network of racialized queer communities in constant musical and political dialogue.

  • The Underrepresentation of Female Personalities in EDM
    The Underrepresentation of Female Personalities in EDM A Closer Look into the “Boys Only”-Genre DANIEL LUND HANSEN SUPERVISOR Daniel Nordgård University of Agder, 2017 Faculty of Fine Art Department of Popular Music There’s no language for us to describe women’s experiences in electronic music because there’s so little experience to base it on. - Frankie Hutchinson, 2016. ABSTRACT EDM, or Electronic Dance Music for short, has become a big and lucrative genre. The once nerdy and uncool phenomenon has become quite the profitable business. Superstars along the lines of Calvin Harris, David Guetta, Avicii, and Tiësto have become the rock stars of today, and for many, the role models for tomorrow. This is though not the case for females. The British magazine DJ Mag has an annual contest, where listeners and fans of EDM can vote for their favorite DJs. In 2016, the top 100-list only featured three women; Australian twin duo NERVO and Ukrainian hardcore DJ Miss K8. Nor is it easy to find female DJs and acts on the big electronic festival-lineups like EDC, Tomorrowland, and the Ultra Music Festival, thus being heavily outnumbered by the go-go dancers on stage. Furthermore, the commercial music released are almost always by the male demographic, creating the myth of EDM being an industry by, and for, men. Also, controversies on the new phenomenon of ghost production are heavily rumored among female EDM producers. It has become quite clear that the EDM industry has a big problem with the gender imbalance. Based on past and current events and in-depth interviews with several DJs, both female and male, this paper discusses the ongoing problems women in EDM face.

It is widely known that people with mild or even no symptoms may be able to spread the virus. The virus that causes COVID-19 spreads very easily and sustainably between people. Information from the CDC indicates this virus is more contagious than influenza (the flu), which is itself highly contagious. The CDC also advises a person may contract the virus that causes COVID-19 by touching a surface or object that has the virus on it and then touching their own mouth, nose, or eyes.

    FANS, TRAVEL TO AND FROM THE SHOW LIKE ROCKSTARS! LIVE NATION AND UBER KICK OFF MARKETING PARTNERSHIP WITH VENUE AND FESTIVAL FOCUSED RIDE PROGRAM – Uber Begins Servicing Live Nation Amphitheaters, Clubs, Theaters and Festivals Memorial Day Weekend with Sasquatch! Music Festival and Electric Daisy Carnival New York! – LOS ANGELES (May 14, 2015) – Live Nation and Uber today announced a marketing partnership which will provide concert and festival goers an easy way to get to and from certain Live Nation events when riding with Uber. Uber services will be offered for 20 festivals throughout the year, 62 select Live Nation amphitheaters, clubs and theaters across the U.S. Festivals including the Electric Daisy Carnival, Faster Horses, Music Midtown, HARD Summer Music Festival, and more will be a part of this great program. [Full list is below]. “Fans want the journey to and from a concert to be as smooth as possible,” said Russell Wallach, President of Live Nation Media & Sponsorships. “Uber offers a convenient alternative to driving for riders to any event, and we are thrilled about the experience this brings for all of our fans.” This unique marketing partnership lets fans focus more on the music experience by having easy transportation methods and designated drop-off and pick-up locations, where available, and reduces the frustration associated with traffic and other driving concerns — just fun, friends and music.

  • Clubbing in Los Angeles Jonny Coleman Tackles the Multi-Farious Scene in One of America's Biggest Cities
    Clubbing in Los Angeles Jonny Coleman tackles the multi-farious scene in one of America's biggest cities. Los Angeles has always been a capital of pop culture. Outside of rave, however, it's never had much of a reputation for its dance music culture. Until recently, that is. The efforts of local promoters have given rise to enormous EDM festivals, the Low End Theory-driven beat scene and thriving techno and house crews—and have led to the city finally becoming internationally recognized. Now, it seems, a place that houses four million people inside the city limits and 18 million in the greater Southland area, is finally representing itself on the world stage. True to its geography—a set of suburbs fronting as a megalopolis—Los Angeles doesn't have a dominant sound or theme. Instead, there are many scenes tugging for attention and battling over the few legitimate dance venues the city has to offer. It's enormously difficult to acquire a liquor license in LA, thanks in no small part to club-owning cowboys like Eddie Nash (of Wonderland murder fame), and those that do can't serve all that late anyway. Most nights last from 10 until 2 or 3 AM (a reality that often results in seeing your headlining DJ for two hours). It doesn't help that many of the historical clubs/bars in places like Hollywood and West Hollywood are a tough sell to fans of underground music, as the price points, degree of parking difficulty and douchebaggery quotient are all high. That means that many parties of note take place downtown or in other east side neighborhoods (if not a private estate).
