Join Sun City Music Festival and the Bob Moog Foundation to Inspire the Next Generation

When you purchase a Sun City Music Festival ticket and donate $1 to the The Bob Moog Foundation, SCMF will match your donation to double the impact of your gift toward the Foundation’s mission of inspiring innovation in future generations.

The Foundation, which carries on the legacy of Dr. Bob Moog’s groundbreaking contribution to electronic music, also runs Dr. Bob’s SoundSchool, a program dedicated to igniting creativity in children through the intersection of music and science.

The work of Dr. Bob’s SoundSchool is especially timely, as music and arts programs across the country have experienced sizable cuts to their funding. Together, the Bob Moog Foundation and the SCMF community can make a positive – and lasting – impact.

“The electronic music community is a very giving group and supporting the Bob Moog Foundation is a great way for our community receive recognition for it. I’m pleased to match all donations made through the ticketing portal to double the impact of the Foundation’s important work.”
-Donnie Estopinal, CEO of Disco Donnie Presents.

Sun City Music Festival Sound Clash: Brodinski, Markus Schulz

Whether you’re a fan of the act of slaying unicorns, or maybe you just long to have a budding bromance, there is no denying the talent of Sun City Music Festival acts Brodinski and Markus Schulz. We think think that both groups of fans can agree – these guys always go hard in their sets, even if their sound is completely different.

Brodinski

This Frenchman has been on a roll ever since his first release in 2007. Fans were immediately drawn to his well-executed fusion of house, techno, electro progressive and hip-hop. Sometimes, his tracks are impossible to define by genre, which makes his sound all the more intriguing. With his imprint Bromance Records just shy of hitting the two year mark, Brodinski has given his friends a platform to release their innovative and punchy sounds, taking in elements from a wide spectrum of electronic music. Early releases from the label like “Let The Beat Control Your Body” and “Nobody Rules These Streets” with labelmate LOUISAHHH!!! were stand out hits and championed by eclectic acts like Chuckie, Porter Robinson, A-Trak, Style of Eye, and Sun City talents Danny Avila and Gesaffelstein.

Whenever Brodinski takes the stage you can expect crazy jaw-dropping twists, cheer-inducing drops, some ridiculous breakbeat or trap fills, but most importantly, you can expect to have a lot of fun. Get ready to join the party, because Brodinski will be throwing a lot of curveballs your way when he performs at this year’s Sun City Music Festival coming to Ascarate Park August 31 and September 1st. Grab your tickets today!

Markus Schulz

As a man of many tastes and talents, Markus Schulz has never stuck with one sound. For the past decade, Markus has crafted and honed in on his style with multiple music identities. As Dakota, Markus has streamlined his tech and progressive house side. As New World Punx, a duo with other dance music legend Ferry Corsten, Markus gets to let out his high-energy trance side. But whether his music ranges through the melodic progressive styles, percussion driven house, or the driving trance platform, one thing’s for certain, and that is his ability to control and astonish any crowd. Especially with his legendary marathon sets.

Fans of Markus have cheekily coined him the “unicorn slayer” referring to his signature hard-driving productions. “By ‘unicorn,’ people mean tracks with really fluffy melodies,” Markus says. “I don’t do this; I’m more into square waves and pitch bends.” You can catch the slayer Labor Day Weekend when he takes the stage at Sun City Music Festival. Buy your tickets today!

Disco Donnie Presents gets a "Moment of Clarity" with Zedd

German prodigy Zedd has had an undeniably amazing 2013. And the best part is, he’s still got halfway to go. With much talked about performances on The Late Show with David Letterman and Late Night With Jimmy Fallon, it’s easy to see why he has been named an MTV Artist to Watch and has been called “the breakout DJ star of 2013” by Billboard. “Clarity,” the title track from Zedd’s debut album, features Foxes and has already been certified gold and still continues to climb charts months after its release.

Still riding high on that success, the wunderkind has announced that he is embarking on a world tour. Moment of Clarity will feature 26 stops scheduled between August 28 and October 3 of this year, with final dates still yet to be set in stone.

Zedd says, “For the past six months, I’ve been working on a light and visual show for my tour. We’ve built tons special content and improved the production day by day, step by step. With the Moment of Clarity World Tour, I want to capture this moment and present it to my fans around the world!”

Joining him on this adventure are talents Oliver and Alex Metric. We’re excited to bring Zedd’s Moment of Clarity tour to a city near you.

Join us on our partnering dates:

Sun City Music Festival Weekend Warriors: Scuba, Deniz Koyu, Borgore

The weekend is here! Break out the bathing suits, the good music and invite some friends over because we’ve got three mixes for all you Sun City Music Festival warriors out there. If you haven’t bought your tickets to the Labor Day weekend celebration, what are you waiting for? Order online, or in select stores, early to save big!

Scuba: After Hours Mix Part 2

Back in May, Hotflush Recordings label boss Scuba compiled a one-hour mix in preparation of his performance at the International Music Summit in Ibiza. This week, Scuba gave the world a part two.

Why We Love It

Scuba has long been praised for his dexterity in blending the many avenues of laid back house and the harder forms of techno. As if his part one wasn’t further proof of that, than part two certainly is. This time, Scuba weaves from the trippy side of techno and ends on a bass-driven garage tip. Enjoy your after hours.

Borgore: Live at Electric Daisy Carnival 2013

The self-professed ruiner of dubstep uploaded his Saturday performance at the Bass Pod.

Why We Love It

If you love dancing, laughing, and proposals, this mix is for you. Weaving through songs you already know, and some of the songs you don’t know yet, Borgore’s set at EDC is a good snapshot of what you can expect when he takes the stage at Sun City Music Festival. We especially loved his live vocals.

Deniz Koyu: Bongbastoc #8

Every other week, Deniz Koyu brings us his radio show Bongbastic on SiriusXM’s Electric Area.

Why We Love It

From start to finish, this episode of Deniz Koyu’s Bongbastic set puts you directly in a festival feeling. Featuring heavy kick drums, grimy electro synths, and vocals you just can’t help but sing along with, this mix is for those you that like it hard. Achtung!

Whether it be from charting because of your production or charting for overall career success, we’d like to extend our congratulations to four of our talented lineup picks for gracing charts all over the internet. Seeing this makes us even more excited to throw down at Ascarate Park this Labor Day Weekend. Grab your tickets today to score the best deal!

Armin van Buuren, Tiësto, and Digweed picked for MusicRadar’s 25 greatest DJs in the world today

To celebrate the inaugural MusicRadar DJ Expo, the site asked their readers and music fans of the internet to nominate and vote for the greatest DJ in the world today. Cross-referencing the results of the poll with the artists’ overall sales on Beatport, they drew up a shortlist of 25 names.

#1: Armin van Buuren

Sun City Music Festival headliner and trance icon Armin van Buuren is a bit of a global phenomenon. His weekly radio show A State Of Trance is broadcast on stations in over 26 countries with listeners in an upwards of over 20 million. He’s headlines the biggest clubs and dance music festivals in the world on a seemingly daily basis.

“I’m extremely happy to win this year’s greatest DJ Poll. To me it’s very special to know that so many people take the time to go online on MusicRadar and vote. It’s truly the best feeling, to get recognition from the people I do it for: the fans! Thank you!”

#7: Tiësto

This Sun City Music Festival act and enduring winner of DJ Mag’s Top 100 poll has done it all. From record-breaking marathon sets to performing at the opening ceremony of the 2004 Athens Olympic Games to an audience of billions. Not only is he a DJ hero in real life, but he also plays one as a character in the video game with the same title. The Dutchman even has a wax statue at Madame Tussauds. Simply stated, Tiësto is a performer who has transcended musical genres and created brand.

#10: John Digweed

Almost 25 years into his career, UK house legend and Sun City act John Digweed is showing no signs of slowing down. He’ll regularly be found playing all-night sets in clubs across world, proving he still has the passion and the technical skill to stay at the forefront of house music.

On a recent Facebook status, Digweed laments, “I normally don’t pay too much attention to DJ polls but it is truly amazing to see how much support I still have after all these years. I feel so lucky to have such amazing fans. Thanks to everyone who has ever come to a show, bought a release, listened to my radio show… you make it all worthwhile.”

Stefano Noferini’s latest single “The End” climbs Beatport Top 20

Champion of house music in all its forms and Sun City talent Stefano Noferini has been in the dance music game for quite some time. In his home country of Italy, he is one of the most-respected DJs and producers, having been a pivotal force in Italy’s up and coming house music scene.

Earlier this week, Stefano finally released what critics have been calling his “biggest track of the year on the revered Spinnin’ Records. The psychedelically driven track, “The End” features a vintage sample from The Doors and a pounding beat that you can’t help but to dance to. Within days, the track is now already at #13 on Beatport’s house chart. We’re sure you’ll hear this techy banger when Stefano Noferi makes his way to this year’s Sun City Music Festival.
