The lineup includes SVDDEN DEATH, Boys Noize, Kai Wachi, Maddix, ALLEYCVT, YDG and more spread across an official pre-party and three late-night afterparties, plus daytime pool parties throughout the weekend. Sets will run into the early morning hours, which tracks for a lineup that leans heavily on bass and techno-leaning names alongside EDC’s bigger room headliners.

Hotel EDC guests get complimentary tickets and priority entry to every official party at Margaritaville Resort Orlando, covering the Thursday pre-party, the Friday-through-Sunday pool parties, and the nightly afterparties. Fans who aren’t booked into the hotel package can still get in on it — four-day GA and VIP party passes, along with shuttle options to and from the festival grounds, are available now at EDCOrlando.com.

Here’s how the nights break down. Thursday, November 5 kicks off the official pre-party with Celo, DRINKURWATER, OZZTIN, SVDDEN DEATH, The Masquerade and Vicky B. Friday’s afterparty brings ALLEYCVT, Costa, Jon Casey, SHOSH, Snuffy, VIRX and more still to be announced. Saturday shifts into bass territory with JKYL & HYDE, Kai Wachi, LAYZ, Lucas Lavernz, Maylay, PapaJay and YDG. The closing party on Sunday wraps things up with Boys Noize, Damaged Goods, Flash Gea, Maddix and SHDW.

This marks the first East Coast edition of Vibee and Insomniac’s hotel takeover concept, which has previously run around EDC Las Vegas. The idea is straightforward — turn a resort into a fully branded EDC home base where guests can crash between sets instead of trekking back to a random Airbnb at 4am.

What’s Included Beyond the Parties

Margaritaville Resort Orlando will get the full EDC treatment, with themed decor in common areas and guest rooms, exclusive merch bags, pop-up DJ sets and surprise experiences scattered throughout the weekend. There’s also daily wellness programming — yoga and meditation sessions for anyone trying to survive four straight days of sets — plus a complimentary glam station stocked with glitter, hair accessories and braids.

Packages also come with daily food and beverage credits, a dedicated on-site Vibee concierge, and complimentary access to Island H2O Water Park, which should help with the recovery process between afterparties.

Hotel EDC Orlando packages include a three-night stay at Margaritaville Resort Orlando, with room options ranging from standard rooms to cottages and villas for bigger groups. A limited number of EDC Orlando GA, GA+ and VIP festival passes can also be added to select packages. More details and booking information are available here.

Leading the pack is German techno mainstay Chris Liebing, a name that needs little introduction to anyone who’s followed the genre’s evolution over the past three decades. He’s joined by Lisbon-based ØTTA, who brings her blend of trance and groove to the festival with her own dedicated Hotties x ØTTA stage takeover. Maddix also returns to the bill, continuing his run of high-energy sets that fuse techno and trance into something built for peak-time festival crowds. Rounding out the darker end of the announcement is Marie Vaunt, who pairs ethereal vocals with searing acid lines.

Also joining the lineup are fast-rising UK producer Paige Tomlinson, techno trailblazer SPFDJ, and STÜM, whose sets balance chaos with a playful streak that’s made her a favorite on the underground circuit. Cuban-Spanish DJ Toccororo, high-energy duo Twofaced, and Brazilian house producer Volkoder close out the additions, reflecting the festival’s ongoing push toward a more global bill.

Beyond individual bookings, Seismic is also expanding its stage takeover programming for 9.0. Alongside ØTTA’s Hotties takeover, the festival will host Next Gen House, a showcase blending tech-house, deep-house, and raw rave energy, and Technobus, which brings its mobile rave concept to the festival grounds. Each takeover is designed to carve out its own pocket of sound and atmosphere across the weekend rather than blending into the main stage programming.

These additions build on a Phase One lineup that already included Above & Beyond, Porter Robinson, Sara Landry, SG Lewis, Brutalismus 3000, Chris Lorenzo, Max Styler, Layton Giordani, KI/KI, horsegiirL, and VTSS, among others.

The festival runs across three stages, each built around a different sonic lens. The indoor Volcano stage and outdoor Tsunami stage cover house and techno, while the Frequency stage digs into hard groove, UKG, and Berlin-leaning sounds. The weekend also carries into late-night afterparties inside the venue’s main room, keeping the festival’s energy going in a smaller club setting once the main stages wrap for the night.

Tickets for Seismic Dance Event 9.0 are on sale now, with 3-day GA passes, single-day tickets, and VIP options available through the festival’s official website.

Heavyweight Headliners Hit The Strip

The Phase 1 announcement brings some serious star power to Sin City’s premier venues. LIV Nightclub is pulling out all the stops with Dutch legend Tiësto and French superstar David Guetta leading the charge, alongside Dom Dolla. Over at LIV Beach, John Summit will be bringing his infectious energy, joined by Disco Lines and Knock2. An exciting performance will certainly be Prospa B2B Kettama B2B Josh Baker – a three-way back-to-back that promises to blend UK garage, breakbeat, and house in ways we’ve never heard before.

The crown jewel of EDC Week 2026 might just be the official EDC Las Vegas pre-party at Downtown Las Vegas Events Center. Headlining this kickoff will be Hardwell B2B Maddix, bringing together the Dutch progressive house legend with one of hardstyle’s rising stars.

What’s Next

With this being just Phase 1, we can expect plenty more announcements in the coming weeks. The 18-venue spread suggests Insomniac is going all-out to make EDC Week 2026 the biggest yet, likely featuring everyone from underground house heroes to mainstage superstars.

Tickets for each EDC Week event are available now at EDCWeek.com. Stay tuned for Phase 2 announcements.

After circling each other through remix duties on ‘Lose This Feeling’ and ‘Computers Take Over The World,‘ Armin van Buuren and Maddix finally lock in for their first original collaboration, and the result is exactly what peak-time festival dreams are made of. ‘Mouth Go LaLa’ isn’t just a track — it’s a statement.

Debuted during their viral face-to-face set at ASOT Rotterdam 2025, the record hit crowds like a shockwave from the very first play. Powered by the bold, hypnotic vocals of Caroline Roxy, ‘Mouth Go LaLa’ thrives on tension, attitude, and pure physical energy — the kind that doesn’t ask for permission before taking over a dancefloor.

This is Armin stepping confidently into harder territory, meeting Maddix right at the intersection of techno pressure and festival-scale impact. The groove is relentless, the drops are unapologetic, and the payoff is instant. No filler. No wasted moments. Just forward momentum.

Already cemented as a go-to weapon in both artists’ sets, the track has been lighting up the biggest stages on the planet — from Ultra and EDC to Tomorrowland and AMF — proving its power across genres, crowds, and continents. Every time it lands, the reaction is the same: hands up, faces melting, chaos in the best way possible.

‘Mouth Go LaLa’ is what happens when experience meets hunger — when two artists with very different lanes decide to ignore labels and focus on impact. The track roars with confidence, takes risks without hesitation, and delivers when the moments matter most.

Consider this one locked in for mainstage season.

Sold-out options include Magnificent Greens camping, Friendship Garden, Global Journey travel packages, Easy Tent, Spectacular Easy Tent, Supreme Easy Tent, and individual day passes. Tickets sold out in under an hour, continuing a trend that has defined Tomorrowland ticket sales for years.

First launched in 2005, Tomorrowland enters its 22nd year in 2026. What began as a local Belgian festival has grown into one of the largest and most recognisable EDM events in the world. Each year, the festival welcomes approximately 400,000 attendees to Boom from more than 200 countries. The continued sellout reinforces Tomorrowland’s status as one of the most in-demand music festivals worldwide.

This year’s theme, Consciencia, centers on the creation of an absurd and immersive emotional world. The concept introduces a mysterious world built on six emotions: Wonder, Love, Anger, Joy, Desire, and Sadness. T/ogether, each emotion exists with it’s own unique visuals, symbols, and rituals. Together, they form an environment that feels both surreal and deeply human, where emotion shapes landscape and imagination becomes physical space.

Meanwhile, while the full lineup continues to roll out, the 2026 edition is expected to feature returning Tomorrowland staples such as Martin Garrix, Armin van Buuren, David Guetta, Hardwell, Calvin Harris, and Chase and Status, alongside many artists across more than a dozen stages.

Finally, with Tomorrowland 2026 sold out, attention now shifts toward stage reveals, daily lineup announcements, and production details. As always, the festival remains a destination where music, storytelling, and global community unite.

Released via Maddix’s EXTATIC Records, ‘Transmission’ is a masterclass in modern techno. Maddix brings his signature energy characterised by rolling techno baselines and leads—while Hannah Laing infuses the track with the new raw, rave-ready bounce that has made her a household name in the UK house and techno circuit. Olly James adds his style to this track making it a triple threat.

‘Transmission’ is a techno rework released by Armin Van Buuren in 2022. The name itself carries huge weight in the trance world because of the Transmission Festival, one of the most famous trance events in the world (originally from Prague). Maddix actually played this track during his sets at Transmission Bangkok and Transmission Netherlands, which helped cement the “classic” feel of the song before it was even officially released.

Maddix summarizes how ‘Move It 2 The Drum’ wonderfully blends the sounds of techno and mainstage

“Move It 2 The Drum is inspired by early hardstyle from the 00’s, blended with a modern techno and mainstage twist. Reverse basslines, punchy kicks, and old-school synth sounds bring it all together. Fun fact: the vocal sample from Hardwell & DJ Chuckie’s original was added after the track was already finished – it just fit perfectly!”

The successes and achievements keeps on adding up

His music continues to receive regular support from notable artists such as Amelie Lens, Reinier Zonneveld, and Hardwell, solidifying Maddix’s reputation as a key player in merging underground rave with high-energy festival sounds.

The post Maddix Drops Unique Genre-Blending ‘Move It 2 The Drum’ appeared first on EDMTunes.

Known for his explosive fusion of big-room techno and hard-edged rave energy, Maddix transforms this early-2000s classic into a modern festival weapon, seamlessly blending the nostalgia of the original with his cutting-edge production.

The release follows a career-defining run for Maddix, who has quickly become one of the most sought-after names in dance music. His recent collaboration with Hardwell on ‘Rave Till My Grave’ became a global moment, amassing millions of streams and lighting up main stages worldwide, while showcasing the power of his ever-evolving sound. Riding the wave of his All Day Rave movement – a fan-fueled celebration of unrelenting energy, raw connection, and marathon sets – Maddix continues to push the boundaries of modern rave culture and unite a new generation of dance music lovers. 

I love old-school dance music and draw inspiration from many tracks from the 1990s and 2000s. When I heard ‘Mix The Master’ I instantly knew I wanted to do something with this,” Maddix says. “I kept it true to the original as much as possible to capture that old-school vibe in a modern twist. It now sounds fresh for the dance floor again, and honestly, it gets the crowd going crazy every time

MADDIX

Maddix’s genre-bending approach – bridging techno, big-room, and hard dance – has made him a mainstay on festival mainstages and underground dancefloors alike, earning support from tastemakers across the spectrum, from Amelie Lens and Deborah De Luca to Hi-Lo and Reinier Zonneveld. With “Mix The Master,” he builds on this momentum, fusing past and present into a seismic new anthem that captures the energy of today’s rave generation while paying homage to the spirit of the early 2000s.

As one of the most influential figures in electronic music, Hardwell has spent over a decade shaping the sound of the mainstage. From genre-defying performances at Tomorrowland, Ultra, and beyond, to his darker, techno-driven evolution in recent years, his impact remains unparalleled. Releases like “ACID,” “Follow The Light,” and collabs with Space 92, Bassjackers, Afrojack, and Sub Zero Project have carved out a new lane, one where rave energy meets unrelenting sonic innovation.

Now, on “Rave Till My Grave,” Hardwell reunites with Maddix, one of dance music’s most exciting boundary-pushers. Their chemistry is on full display as the track unfolds: built on Villain’s commanding spoken-word vocal—“This perfect place… our rave till my grave”—the record surges with industrial firepower, peaktime euphoria, and explosive drops that ignite both warehouse and festival settings.

Maddix brings his signature blend of techno, big room, and rave to the forefront. With previous hits like “Ecstasy,” “Open Sesame (Abracadabra),” and “90s Bitch,” he’s earned co-signs from Amelie Lens, Deborah De Luca, HI-LO, and Reinier Zonneveld, blurring lines between underground credibility and mainstage reach. His evolving All Day Rave concept reflects his broader mission: to unite generations and genres through music that’s immersive, authentic, and unrelenting.

Also featured is Villain, one of hard dance’s most recognizable voices and a mainstay at Defqon.1, Q-BASE, Reverze, and Tomorrowland. His rallying vocal transforms “Rave Till My Grave” into a defiant, collective call to the dancefloor, a moment of unity forged in sound.

Following previous collabs like “ACID,” “Take Me Away Again,” and “Revolution,” Hardwell and Maddix’s latest is both a love letter to the underground and a mainstage monster.
