Zedd, Knock2, DJ Snake, et Louis the Child

Anton Zaslavki is a grammy winning DJ and producer, and is one of the top EDM artists, but is better known as Zedd. Like most EDM stars these days, a lot of his tracks feature other artists, usually vocalists like his grammy winning song “ Clarity” which features Foxes. But what you may not know is that Zedd is also a classically trained pianist making him a multi-talented artist, as opposed to the “EDM DJs only push buttons and are not real artist” reputation. Knowing this information, you get a better realization of where his inspiration comes from when he makes his own tracks. When given the opportunity, like when I was able to see him live, he played the piano for the popular song “Stay The Night,” instead of staying behind the DJ equipment.
The biggest problem that you encounter with such a huge DJ is that when they have their live sets, the artists that they collaborate with may not be there. Case in point: Hayley Williams, the original vocalist for “Stay The Night” was on tour with her own band and could not make this performance. This meant Zedd needing to use another vocalist, or the recorded track. He went with another vocalist, who wasn’t so great.
Regardless of these possibilities, Zedd is an EDM genius, and his shows are super energetic and loads of fun.

You may not know the name William Grigahcine, but chances are you probably know who DJ Snake is. They are one in the same person; the world recognized producer, mixer and DJ of the electronic music world. The French artist has worked with the likes of Diplo, Dillon Francis, and even Lady Gaga.
The great thing about DJ Snake’s live shows is the incorporation of a variety of different genres mixed together, unlike a lot of other electronic music performers who have a bit of a problem of their sets becoming tediously the same. There is a distinct difference in all of his sounds, bringing together a wide array of fans, since the genres cross over so much. Also, instead of having an annoying MC do all the hyping and talking, DJ Snake picks up the microphone instead. He is extremely personable in the sense that he speaks quite often to the crowd, even if it is very simple, it’s a nice change of pace from the MCs who say things for no reason and have a disconnect to the music. The crowd loves him, just as much as he obviously loves what he is doing up on that stage.

I loved their set.
Yes, it was one of the best sets of 2016 that i have seen. Unfortunately, the van that was suppose to bring their visuals got stuck in a blizzard and they only got left with one screen and the lights the Wonder Ballroom offered. But it didn't matter, I loved their set, with them playing their remix of "Compass" and "Blase" as well as originals they made like "Weekend" and "Fire." They even closed off their set with their biggest hit, "It's Strange."
