Krewella
Sat 3pm

A bit like dubstep yin and yang, this Chicago trio lays sultry vocals from singing sisters over rough beats.

Zebo
Sat 4pm

Officially the Mid’s new Friday-night resident, Zebo always brings his A+ game to the festival stage.

Joachim Garraud
Sat 6pm

The Space Invaders–loving Frenchman combines his DJ sets with improvised techno workouts. It’s cool, trust us.

A-Trak
Sat 7pm

A-Trak has more skill and versatility than most of those with whom he shares this bill. Period.

Willy Joy
Sun 3pm

The high-flying Chicagoan has flown the coop, so it’s nice to have this electro-tinged party-starter back.

Derrick Carter
Sun 5pm

With electro and dubstep dominating the proceedings, a solid Chicago house set sounds mighty good. Carter’s got that on lock.

Green Velvet
Sun 6pm

See Derrick Carter above (but add more techno).

Diplo
Sun 8pm

You never know what you’re going to get from this dude, but it’s likely bass, dubstep and hip-hop. He’ll have you moving regardless.
