I thought I’d be a little more personal this week by connecting with you via video rather than text.
With that said, take a moment to watch my live broadcast below, hosted by Google Hangouts, promoting my new ‘upcoming events’ tab located at the top of my blog!
Feel free to comment with any events you think are worth attending that I didn’t mention.
XOXO,
Rachel
If you haven’t already downloaded the app Timbre, you need to.
Although it sounds a lot like a promiscuous dating app (Tinder) and Kesha’s newest hit (Timber), Timbre is a free concert discovery app available for Apple products and Androids.
This app makes it quick and easy to find live music events around you and even buy tickets instantaneously.
San Francisco, Calif. was raging hardcore this weekend at Finger Lickin’.
I traveled from SLO to review this event! Photo by Rachel Gasparini.
Some of the best EDM headliners filled Fort Mason with music that radiated throughout the city. Artists included:
Laidback Luke, Adventure Club, DJ Snake, TJR, Green Lantern, and Whitenoize.
LED, Golden Voice, and Collective Efforts Events put on this 18+ festival from start to finish.
Although the lineup was on point, the festival did have weak areas, such as the timing, security, and organization of the event.
Want to know one way to determine if EDM event tickets are worth buying?
Look past the lineup for a moment and take a look at which event companies are hosting the concert, festival, or rave.
As with anything new, there is always room for improvement.
With this, I’d like to take this post to self-reflect on my work as an EDM girl.
It’s been five weeks since I’ve started writing and I can’t believe how much I’ve discovered about this genre since I’ve started.
It was a blaze of white, yetis, and people everywhere.
On Friday, Jan. 31st, the sold-out Winter White Tour took Cal Poly SLO by a storm.
The concert was held in the university’s Rec Center and featured Steve Aoki, as well as Dzeko & Torres, Autoerotique, Max Styler, and Animal Kontrol.
Also look out for pictures from my personal experiences at raves, festivals, concerts, interviews, etc.
Cal Poly San Luis Obispo made it’s first jump into EDM culture by holding a free XXYYXX concert in the Rec Center last Friday night.
On top of that, Cal Poly’s Associated Students, Inc. (ASI) is presenting a big name in the industry at the upcoming Winter White Tour: Steve Aoki.
But what does this mean for EDM in SLO?
We’ve all heard the music.
We’ve all heard about the culture.
We all love it
… or hate it.
EDM.
