The response to this year's Global Dance Festival has been incredible, with 3-day passes selling out faster than ever before. We know you're all excited to find out who else will be playing, so today we have a few more artists to announce for each day!
Friday, July 19th:
Signal Path
Are you ready for an introspective experience on the dance floor? Signal Path contorts electronic music, masterfully blending technology with live instrumentation to create a uniquely powerful sound. Their beautiful yet intense live shows incorporate everything from guitars and basses to mandolins and the bajo quinto to deliver unrelenting rhythm combined with massive low end production. Brace yourself for depth and intricacy of sound when Signal Path brings their incredible live show to Global Dance Festival day 1! Be on the lookout for their new EP released this Sunday, April 21st.
Sorne
Become engulfed in the otherworldly artistic performance of Sorne. Referred to as 'theatrical creativity at its finest', Sorne is a powerful encapsulation of mankind's primal facets and over-the-top visual artistry. With tribal influences, the 3 piece band incorporates poly-rhythmic drumming, mysterious folk songs, technical guitar work, all powered by raw, animalistic emotion that will truly blow you away. The performance itself tells the story of 5 siblings reacting to the death of their father, represented through an authentic, twisted, deeply textured abstract performance. For a better idea of what to expect at Global Dance Festival day 1, check out this video.
Saturday, July 20th:
Carnage
Bursting into the scene just a few years ago, Carnage is quickly cementing his position as Fool's Gold's next heavy-hitter. Slicing and dicing electro, hip hop, pop, and trap, Carnage creates an intoxicating sound that smashes dance floors everywhere he goes. His diverse palate of party-rocking bangers have gained him notoriety from artists including A-Trak & Hardwell, and he has collaborated with the likes of Kaskade and The Cataracts. A monster behind the decks, his performances are a recipe to rage to, injecting enough energy to shake the very core of Red Rocks. Just check out 'Bang' to see the incendiary drops Carnage creates.
K Theory Live
In the past few years, K Theory have made a huge mark in dance music, crafting incredible original sounds loaded with emotional heft, rupturing baselines, and a unique broken beat technique. They have topped charts with tracks including '18th Century Gangster' and 'Glith & Blues', and gained notoriety from artists such as Gareth Emery & DJ Fresh. Their performances are described as 'high energy explosions of sound', harnessing an unshakable momentum you have to see for yourself to believe. Be on the lookout for K Theory in 2013- and witness their LIVE performance at Global Dance Festival day 2!
Sunday, July 21st:
Baauer
In the past few months, Baauer has had a meteoric rise to fame and has become undoubtedly the most well known trap producer in dance music. The man behind international super hit and viral YouTube craze 'Harlem Shake', Baauer brilliantly integrates the raw energy of southern hip hop and deep underground bass to rock the dance floor all over the world. Just listen to 'Dum Dum' and his remix of Flosstradamus' 'Roll Up' and it is easy to see why he is rapidly rising the ranks in bass music. Get ready to do the Harlem Shake with Baauer at Red Rocks for Global Dance Festival day 3!
RL Grime
On the forefront of trap music, RL Grime has introduced a completely new sound that is quickly becoming the future of electronic music. You might know him by his electrohouse moniker Clockwork, a master of the bass-heavy big room sound, but he has recently been receiving worldwide acclaim for his RL Grime productions & remixes including 'Mercy' & 'Grapes Alla Vodka'. We can definitely expect huge things from this young producer in the next year, and you can see him first doing a B2B set with Baauer at Global Dance Festival day 3!
