Last-Minute: Blasterjaxx Joins Bacardi Arena Lineup
Blasterjaxx joins the lineup of the 2019 Sziget Festival's Bacardi Arena in a last-minute change after Maurice West had to cancel his gig at the venue. The Dutch duo will take the stage at the Bacardi Arena on August 10, at 11:30 PM. The Dutch DJ/producer duo consists of two youngsters, Thom Jongkind and Idir Makhlaf who have started making music together in the Hague in 2010. Their style is best described as big room house and electro house but they sometimes go in directions like progressive, future bass, and trap as well. BlasterJaxx's most successful single so far was "Faith", released

The lineup of the Sziget 2019 Main Stage The final names were added to this year's "epic" lineup over at Sziget 2019: Macklemore, 6LACK, and Michael Kiwanuka will complete the already amazing list of performers at the event. At the same time, the final lineup of the Doru Panaitescu Main Stage was also published. Macklemore is a performer that needs no introduction - he was at Sziget in 2014 and 2017. The Seattle-based rapper, singer, and songwriter will take the stage on Saturday, August 10, right before The National closes the day with its performance. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dq4-nAaYbXA Ricardo Valdez Valentine, better known by

Untold Festival Reveals Phase 1 of Lineup
Untold Festival is the biggest EDM event in Romania with a pretty short history (this year, it is at its fifth edition) but already making waves all over the world. Usually held at the beginning of August (this year, it will happen between the 1st and the 4th), the festival attracts hundreds of thousands of participants from all over the world. Its policy of revealing its performers is much different from what we usually see at Sziget - its organizers release the names in big batches, covering everything from headliners to emerging talent. This year, the festival has released its

Balaton Sound 2019 : The Chainsmokers, Tiesto, Others
Sziget's EDM-focused sister event, Balaton Sound, announced a few more names added to its lineup. It will probably be sad news for some to see The Chainsmokers booked for the other event (this usually means that the same artists and acts won't be on Sziget's stages). The Chainsmokers were at Sound 2018, too.
