The Electric Forest lineup grew a bit this afternoon. Though the blowout festival is already completely sold out, more artists were added today, and more artists will continue to be added in a third phase that should be on its way soon.
Legendary British producer Four Tet joins the lineup, along with European production super duo Galantis (Style of Eye and Miike Snow's Bloodshy) and French DJ Brodinski. Festival favorites The Fungineers also made this latest wave.
The big news today is the announcement of the curated stages.
Gramatik's Lowtemp label will take over the Forest Stage with Gibbz, Russ Liquid, Adam Deitch (performing a much-anticipated DJ set), Freddy Todd, and Branx.
Crew Love brings off-kilter house and techno to the Forest Stage, as well, with Soul Clap, Wolf + Lamb, Midnight Magic, Life on Planets, Nick Monoco, and Slow Hands.
Bassrush, the subsonic department of festival co-promoter Insomniac takes over the Tripolee Stage with Flux Pavilion, Carnage, Datsik, Snails, Crizzly, Ed Rush & Optical, Minnesota, KOAN Sound, Mt Eden, Son of Kick, Illenium, and Vaski. Also on the Tripolee stage, Carl Cox & Friends hosts John Digweed, Pete Tong, Matrixxman, Saeed Younan, and more TBA.
The biggest curated stage comes courtesy of Australia's Future Classic, and features Flume, Four Tet, Lido, Goldlink, Wave Racer, Mr. Carmack, and Nadus at Sherwood Court, which is a first for that particular stage.
Electric Forest returns to Double JJ Ranch in Rothbury, MI from June 25-28. Please visit electricforestfestival.com for more information--but unfortunately, no tickets.
