If you caught Brodinski at Movement last May, you know what’s in store for the E Forest crowd. Easily the ‘coolest cat’ on the lineup, Brodinski is going to unleash some madness upon the new Jubilee tent. Part techno, part hip hop, and all badass, Brodinski is going to put the Electric in Electric Forest. Get ready for some intense shit.

2. EXMAG
Sunday – 7:45pm-9pm – Jubilee

Come find some love in the Jubilee tent for Exmag on Sunday. Guaranteed to be the sexiest set of the weekend, Exmag is ready to make you fall in festy-love. Bringing the hot guitar sounds together with the smooth synths, Exmag is going to set the groove bar high.

1. FREDDY TODD

In conclusion, at Electric Forest, no matter where you are, you’re going to have a blast. Hang loose, and keep an open mind/ear to new experiences and artists.
