The mature crowd welcomes the quality talent from all over the world looking to discover new and innovative artists that they may of not been previously familiar with.Īlthough many of the artists on this line-up are quite familiar names in the world of house and techno, some might not be so familiar. Although headliners like Duke Dumont and Flume can still be heard on the radio, majority of the artists on this eclectic and diverse line-up prefer intimate settings and unanticipated sets.įor the last couple of years, CRSSD Festival has taken to Waterfront Park on the North San Diego Bay for a mix of house and techno twice a year. Taking place in the warm and sunny San Diego on March 3 rd and 4 th, CRSSD Festival has steered away from the mainstream line-ups and major headliners that are most prevalent in the world of electronic music, especially in America. Detroit has been playing homage to techno since the ‘80s and Movement Festival is a highly acclaimed and widely celebrated event that draws visitors from all over the country and beyond. This is partly due to the festival being located in Detroit, the birthplace of techno, the long-running history and quality of the festival itself and its after-parties, and the chance to see artists that normally don’t come to the United States. Movement Electronic Music Festival in Detroit contains 90% house and techno acts, and has grown in size every year with more and more after-parties taking place and more brands and sponsors coming on board. Woogie Weekend is also not going to be taking place again this year and neither is the smaller Freeform Festival in Pennsylvania. Awakenings did not take place again in New York this year and Time Warp hasn’t continued past its 20 editions either. Although many European brands have managed to curate festivals that feature all house and techno artists, it seems as if the United States is still a bit behind.
