Any advice for a crazy festival like GOTJ?😭 Im the mom friend and i wanna be prepared.
Yes all the time...
This is funny, the year this video was published I attended my first rave. Now I'm trying to stop for good, mostly because my body is exhausted from the constant jetlag and alcohol/drug use. Tbh I feel like I've aged 15 years instead of 6. Besides, mental health has rarely been stable during these years... This is really hard to move on and to find something that can replace such intense moments
This is sooooo helpful! Thank you!
I know one of them personally, it's not just rothbury but whitehall and Montague police there too.
You’re a legend for putting us on to this song
Are you going this year, they announced the lineup a couple days ago
Finally watching this year's vlogs! Everything looked incredible and I loved the breakfast sandwich recap! 😋 So freakin cool you got to interview Pasquale!! 😄 Didn't make it this year, but surprised my little sister with a ticket for 2025 so it will be the two of us and I'm so excited for her to experience it! 💙
ALWAYS!!! This is me on day three at EDC every year. Orlando falls around my bday so its soooooooo bittersweet when day three starts at the hotel. My brain here and there thinks about it all day without being sad. Then when the closing set hits, i'm bawling lol
Omg yeah the last minute one showing up to the rail like sorry lol I’ve been sitting here for 6 hours to see the closing act
I feel so stupid what’s electric forest 😭?
it's a music & arts festival in Michigan!
I live in Allentown not that far and still unsure and deciding if its worth to go to this
i would try it out!
i need a pair too!!!!!
I've never been, but I wanna go. I would have to go alone though so idk, I hate doing stuff alone. Plus I never see people with my body shape at music festivals so I would stick out like a big, fat sore thumb 😂😂
There's tens of thousands of people at these events with allllll types of bodies so you will definitely not stick out in any way!! People aren't there to judge you 💗Embrace who you are!
hi, is there ticket available for edc 2025? where can i buy? i missed the sales? the site is very confusing..thanks ;)
I’m so happy for you living out your dreams girl! Been following you along your journey for many years now. You’re an inspiration 😢
thank you so much!! ☺
Just something to watch out for, glitter does contribute to microplactic pollution. There are biodegradable varieties out there that are still affordable
I grew up in rothbury and it was the worst hearing the loud booming music trying to sleep for so long, happened every year til we moved
Do you know if you could put mutes in these? As it were an engage plus or an experience plus?
Not sure Knock2 should be categorized as trap/dnb. Definitely more bass house as the majority of his tracks has a house groove/tempo but yes, his niche/fan base would definitely bleed into trap I can see that.
Facts
4 years later and i think you were right about dnb getting a little bigger in the US. I noticed that during the pandemic, as most people were spending their time online, people were getting introduced to Internet-based EDM genres like Breakcore and Glitchcore, which I would say fall under DnB/Jungle as subgenres, just more intense and hardcore. Artists like Machine Girl, Sewerslvt, and Goreshit, as well as "nostalgic" set mixes on KZread involving liquid and atmospheric dnb from video games, became superrrrr popular over the pandemic. although I don't hear this kind of music much at festivals, raves, or other events, I have noticed that the general American rave community at least on the internet are definitely more aware of DnB, especially with bigger DJs including breakbeats and heavier drums in their songs :)
👏👏👏
This price point is highway robbery: especially considering the fact that Resorts World usually has affordable rates relative to most of the resorts around it (Wynn/Encore, Venetian/Palazzo, Fontainebleau). I really enjoy Resorts World and think it's one of the best resorts on the Strip between having one of the three best restaurant portfolios, one of the five best lounge portfolios, one of the better dayclubs and affordable rooms often for its Hilton and Conrad towers (Crockfords is another story)................but I would just stay there Sunday-Friday most any other time of the year for one-third or even one-fourth of the price of this. When it comes to resorts in close proximity to the other EDC shuttle stops: the STRAT, Sahara and Virgin are all great choices, and the Rio is in the midst of a massive resort-wide renovation by its new owner/operator Dreamscape since taking over from Caesars Entertainment in October of last year and will also be fantastic and good as new in no time. You could book a room Thursday-Monday at STRAT or Sahara especially for a fraction of the Hotel EDC pricetag and also still have a well-rounded resort experience.
I think you made this video too early bc the lineup is even bigger now.
i know!! so many good ones added
Thanks for this video. Going for my first time this year and it’s been very helpful!!
Here is the Tier template! tiermaker.com/create/electric-forest-2024-lineup-by-genre-733176
If you ever do Beyond Wonderland at the Gorge in Washington State bring tons of sunscreen, gallons of water, and ice. June in central Washington is hoooooooot. The day is boob sweat hot…lol. Then usually around 6-7 pm the wind starts ripping thru so temps will drop at night. Going from 100+ day then dropping to 60-70 at night feels cooold.
where can i find the link of the list she mentions?
Whoops sorry! tiermaker.com/create/electric-forest-2024-lineup-by-genre-733176
Bringing gifts is a must! I also always bring my HomeFi hotspot for when the venue is remote and service is spotty, it's a lifesaver.
This Video makes me so thankful I grew up in so cal
Love movement techno Disneyland is always 🤌🏼
was my first EDC and it blew away my expectations! thanks for all your videos helping me get prepped! Can't wait for EDCO in November!
Love the in-depth review and stoked to receive this order 😊
you're so welcome!
I have random questions because I am preparing for my first camping festival: Where do you toss out full trash bags? Is there a process of what campers do when we have a full bag of trash? Does ANYONE do anything to keep valuables locked away when they aren't camping near their cars? I know I can lock my tent but do you guys do anything further than just hiding valuables within your suitcases?
I think every festival is different. The ones I've seen people just pile them in/near the trash cans, but I know some festivals have bigger trash or donation drop off areas. For tents, I'd say do the locks for sure and then try to keep anything really valuable on you inside the fest. I wouldn't leave wallet, sunglasses, jewelry, etc behind
Just bought EDCLV '25 tickets and I cannot wait for this experience. This will be life changing
Yayyy!! So excited for you 🥳
17:55 “everyone’s taking their 2nd dose and im eating my noodles” mood af
🎉
Best tip: DON'T OVERDO IT WITH THE BOOZE and/or DRUGS. I've had to leave both Countdown and a Desert Hearts event because I got too messed up to the point that I would've had a freakout if I didn't leave. (Don't mix booze and psychedelics!)
Sun reflecting tarp would come in handy too 💪🏻
Going this year, it will be my first festival and this video is so helpful ty!
great one to start with!
😂🎉❤😢😊😮😅🎉
lol I was hanging out with the people holding the shaq totem 😂 such good memories 🥲
Will zip ties work in a pinch for the flag??? 🤔
I finally got my first pair bc of you! purple is my absolute favorite 💜 can’t wait for these at forest!
Thanks Emma! Really helpful, now I gotta look into phase 2 😍 Side note: I'd consider Maddy O'Neal more of a funky bass music artist.
Can you make an updated ranking with the new additions? This is INCREDIBLY helpful for someone new to EDM like me!
What’s the song ID at 9:30???? Omggg
As always amazing Content ;-)
I’m camping at festival for the first time this year! Thank you so much for this video!
