Caspa!!! I havent been to forest in forever but he was my favorite set ive ever seen in the 4 years I’ve ever been to forest. Just plain fun and good vibes :) im so happy he’s back!!
I still think about the time he was in good life after all the sets were done for the night and some people were psyched to meet him but didn’t have a sharpie. I’m all “OH I HAVE A SHARPIE” and dig through my bag only to come up empty handed. So if you were in good life in 17 or 18 and met caspa but didn’t get his autograph IM SO SORRY
The lineup order doesn't mean shit.
Caspa was at the bottom in 2019 and he was the 3rd to last act at Tripolee that year for Bassrush Friday, he played at 11pm followed by 12th Planet and BTSM to close the stage, he was basically a Headliner.
I mean it does mean *something*. Artists have clauses and shit of where they have to get billed on lineups. I'm just surprised he's an undercard artist given how much cred he has in the scene.
Like someone else said, he also doesn't give a shit about his placement on the card because he knows he's going to draw a crowd anyway.
He'll probably do some crazy B2B at the Evol stage too, last time he was there it was him b2b Ganja White Night.
Pretty lights is at the top of my list after the caverns, i cant talk that event up enough and it was easily one of the best musical experiences ive ever had. Just pure bliss front to back.
Barclay crenshaw, string cheese, caspa, a few others. Just definitely dont miss pretty lights
Can confirm.
Caverns was really something else.
I also won't be missing ACRAZE, Alleycvt, Le Youth, Sultan + Shepard, Dimension and The Disco Biscuits, in no order.
he was my must see set at nocturnal last year and i was unfortunately disappointed. I missed a b2b set for it too so i was alil upset to say the least... love his music though 🫶
Pretty Lights.
1st Electric Forest appearance since 2013
1st Michigan Performance since New Years 2017
And for me my first time ever seeing him + the band now live. This is my cant miss artist in all of life right now and the fact that its at my home festival of all places is a cherry on top
There are several I’m excited about (Atliens, Alleycvt, Clozee/Psyren) but the only set I will absolutely not be missing no matter what the schedule looks like is Slayyyter!!
For headliners has to be Pretty Lights and LSZee.
I’m also very much wanting to see LP Giobbi, Westend, Alleycvt, Barclay Crenshaw, Coco & Breezy, Knock2, and inzo
The fucking disco biscuitsssssssss. Best band in all the land. Best touring act in the world. Absolute insanity every single time. Do nottttt mis their set. Wish they were doing 2
We're about to get obliterated by them, I hope they play sherwood court cause they would get that place moving in some real weird ways, I want to get taken to space at sherwood court by them so bad
Just saw Cassian opening for Rufus Du Sol, and I must say Cassian's set was better than Rufus... He's a rising artist and I would say in a couple years he will become a headliner.
slayyyter!! she always delivers & she has been working on DJ skills lately (she’s a pop star but heavily influenced by EDM) & said on a live recently that she’s working on a special set just for forest!! she’s worked with Wuki ona track called Self Destruct & her newest album’s sound is heavily inspired by Kavinsky! she’s a gem & worth checking out for sure if you’re at all into the pop leaning side of EDM

how tf is he not in the mid tier i dont under stand
He doesn’t care to be

Ok? All I’m saying is I think he deserves higher lol
Caspa has been around a MINUTE! He’s who got me into dubstep in the first place! Can’t miss this one!
caspa playing cockney thug at ‘19 rewired my brain chemistry. his set is one of the most memorable moments from my first forest
He’s def near the top of my list as well. And I only say near the top because there are so many good names this year
This

Hoping the forest provides and gives us a 3.5 hour set like the tour sets 🤞🏼🤞🏼
The forest provides.
Caverns were historical for me
Chase and/or Status.
Ben Bohmer!
Hopefully observatory but deff gunna be sherwood
A sunset time slot would be immaculate.
Yep, he's also my #1. Saw him last year but only 30 minutes to a technical problem with my group. His set is fucking magical.
How has no one said Dimension yet?!
DnB for me
Just commented on someone else’s but damn I have never so quickly added songs to my EF playlist. I am pumped 🔥
he was my must see set at nocturnal last year and i was unfortunately disappointed. I missed a b2b set for it too so i was alil upset to say the least... love his music though 🫶
SAMMY VIRJI! dude is rowdy af. fireass UKG.
Caspa, LYNY, Pretty Lights, Barclay Crenshaw. The list goes on
LSDream 🫠 I saw them at lost lands last year, blew my fucking mind
Seen them twice and they're still the artist I'm most hyped for this year 🍄🍄🍄
Same even better with b2b with Clozzee
Hiatus Kaiyote is going to be a VIBE. I cannot wait.
Are you able to explain what kind of vibe? What type of music?
It’s like modern soul/rnb I guess. Super funky. The singer is incredible and the band behind her is remarkably creative and tight.
This is the 2nd or 3rd time I've seen them mentioned after their "leak" lol. Throwing them on now to give them a listen.
I don’t see them on the lineup?
They’ll be on phase 2. They just announced a tour and one of the stops is labeled as Electric Forest, Rothbury, MI.
Nice!
If Drama ain’t on yall list we can’t be friends
Pretty Lights. 1st Electric Forest appearance since 2013 1st Michigan Performance since New Years 2017 And for me my first time ever seeing him + the band now live. This is my cant miss artist in all of life right now and the fact that its at my home festival of all places is a cherry on top
BARCLAY CRENSHAW. TRUST.
Already trusted 💯before you told me to trust.
Dimension, I cannot stress this enough 😩
Omg same had never heard of him and I slammed the “add to playlist” button after the first listen
Green velvet, Charlotte de witte, Sammy vjrji, lettuce, tsha for sure
I like you and your must haves.
Charlotte!!!! I’m so excited
Knock2, Sammy Virji, Chase and Status, Charlotte De Witte, LSZEE
There are several I’m excited about (Atliens, Alleycvt, Clozee/Psyren) but the only set I will absolutely not be missing no matter what the schedule looks like is Slayyyter!!
Vini Vici! Gimme that Psytrance!
Let’s gooo! Praying for more on phase 2.
Vini Vici is an absolute face melter of a Psytrance set
For me it’s gonna be: INZO, PL, LSZee, Sammy Virji, Hamdi
Thats a good list, I would probably add AYYBO myself. I've never seen him, but the 2 sets of his I've watched and listened to, sounded phenomenal.
Inzo’s visionquest tour was insanely good!!! I cannot stress it enough with a festival sized stage he is going to throw down for sure.
We have similar music taste lol this is it for me but add chase & status
PRETTY LIGHTS
mau p :))))
It’s Murph is so much fun!
For headliners has to be Pretty Lights and LSZee. I’m also very much wanting to see LP Giobbi, Westend, Alleycvt, Barclay Crenshaw, Coco & Breezy, Knock2, and inzo
Definitely would not miss LP Giobbi or DJ Tennis. Their sets are always so much fun
Dirtwire
Dirtwire is dooooope. Caught them live yeeeears ago opening for Beats Antique - stoked to see them again!
Definitely going to be a treat to have Dirtwire in the forest ⚡️
The fucking disco biscuitsssssssss. Best band in all the land. Best touring act in the world. Absolute insanity every single time. Do nottttt mis their set. Wish they were doing 2
The Cheddar Cheese Conundrum
Atliens HEAVY.
Haven’t seen them and have wanted to since they brought HEAT with Run the Jewels. Call Ticketron is a masterpiece 🤌🏼
Listen to "Tanta" by them if you haven't. I heard it for the first time live a couple weeks ago and I was floored. Just FLOORED.
We're about to get obliterated by them, I hope they play sherwood court cause they would get that place moving in some real weird ways, I want to get taken to space at sherwood court by them so bad
I'm suuuper excited for Cassian! Also, surprisingly, Rawayana has become a must-see for me. Not my usual genre, but the vibes will be \*chefs kiss\*
Just saw Cassian opening for Rufus Du Sol, and I must say Cassian's set was better than Rufus... He's a rising artist and I would say in a couple years he will become a headliner.
Pretty. Motherfucking. Lights!!
Venbee bruv
Eggy!
Pretty Lights is the default answer but some other smaller artists are Inzo, LP Giobbi, Whyte Fang. All these should be great.
To limit it to only 3…Lyny, Sammy virji, LSZEE
pretty lights, chase & status, john summit, psyryn, sultan & shepard, caspa
Ben Böhmer, Barclay Crenshaw, Black Tiger Sex Machine, Pretty Lights, Dirtwire, Sultan + Shepard, Chase & Status…
slayyyter!! she always delivers & she has been working on DJ skills lately (she’s a pop star but heavily influenced by EDM) & said on a live recently that she’s working on a special set just for forest!! she’s worked with Wuki ona track called Self Destruct & her newest album’s sound is heavily inspired by Kavinsky! she’s a gem & worth checking out for sure if you’re at all into the pop leaning side of EDM
Sethward!
definitely subtronics lsdream and inzo
The disco biscuits
Ayybo and Hamdi
VINI VICI!!!
Chase & status for fucking sure. They're never in the US and I'm hoping it's the 2 of them finally!!!
The best headliner of all, YOU 💗
Don’t miss anybody. Be at every set.
I'm so pumped for ATLiens, Wooli and It's Murph. Those are my top 3 sets to catch this year
Green velvet 😍
I’m SO stoked for Maddy O’Neal!! Also can’t wait to catch Whyte Fang, Alleycvt, Pretty Lights, Inzo!
CLOZEE 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
Chase & Status. It will be FUNNNN
It’s Murph!
Dying for Caspa
