Sunset Music Festival Sound Mashup: Markus Schulz and Carnage
We love that our Sunset Music Festival artists connect with their fans on a more friendlier level. Though some of you are a part of the slaying of mythical creatures crew, or a members of the #ChipotleGang, it’s easy to see why fans of Markus Schulz and Carnage are so in love in their personalities and their music – no matter how different their sound is.
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 multiple music identities, whether it be through progressive, trance or house platforms. His fan-coined nickname “unicorn slayer,” refers to his signature hard-driving productions that destroy the cheesy, fluffy productions of his peers. His latest artist album Scream could be best described as a love story told through a journey of house and trance. You can catch the slayer May 25th when he takes the Isis stage at Sunset Music Festival. Buy your tickets today!
Carnage
Carnage first came to our attention for his ridiculous trap releases, but he has since stepped out of his comfort zone. His latest single “Signal,” showcases his take on that big room “festival-style house” sound. But after the second breakdown, the track morphs itself into that trap style that put his name on the map not even a year ago. As for the rest of 2013, Carnage has been working on some some other goodies including some more electro house and some drum and bass. We hope we get to hear some of what he has been working on Carnage takes over the bass stage at Sunset Music Festival. Buy tickets now!

Sunset Music Festival Artist Spotlight: Alvin Risk
At Sunset Music Festival, we pride ourselves in having a lineup that is filled with both seasoned artists and buzzworthy newcomers. And there is one particular newcomer who seems to be making all of the right moves for his budding music career–dare we say, all the right risks? Thankfully, Alvin Risk’s dynamic live performances more than make up for our corny puns and you can see up close and personal, Saturday, May 25th. Hurry and grab those tickets!
Even though Alvin Risk, born Marcio Alvarado, was relatively unknown two years ago, that is certainly not the case today for the Washington D.C. native. His name started gaining some traction when he teamed up with fellow D.C. native, moombahton pioneer Tittsworth, to drop the massive Two Strokes Raw EP in 2011. After releasing his debut solo EP “Infinity” in 2012, Alvin scored a spot on OWSLA’s US and Canada tour, gaining more support from industry artists and fans alike. He even tagged along with Kaskade that same year, opening for “America’s Best DJ” on his “Freaks of Nature” tour.
Now signed to the OWSLA imprint, Alvin’s sound is known for its signature blend of dubstep, electro, moombahton and house. With a knack for creating killer, hard-hitting remixes, Alvin has reworked the music of Kaskade, Kill The Noise, Matt & Kim, and other Sunset talent, Steve Aoki, just to name a few. And although 2013 is not even at it’s halfway mark yet, there is no telling what Alvin Risk has up his argyle sleeve for the rest of the year. Still reveling in the buzz surroundding newest releases “Skyclad” and “Empty Hearted,” a collaboration with Designer Drugs, we’re sure you’ll hear these tunes when Alvin Risk takes the stage at Sunset Music Festival in less than two weeks.
