Returned to the states from another country only to discover that our favorite new festival, Elements Lakewood, put out a absolute scorcher of a lineup. Yes. BangOn! is bringing the party back to Lakewood, PA with a flaming hot lineup of house and underground bass music. With tech masters by the likes of Claude Vonstroke, Fisher, and The Desert Hearts Crew, along with house music legends Maceo Plex, Jamie Jones, and Lee Burridge, we can already feel the magnetic pull of bumping bass from the beautiful forest, down past the fire-blasting incendia stages, and all the way out to the middle of the lake. Bassheads can rejoice that the Earth stage is getting blessed with Troyboi, Minnesota, and Charlesthefirst, along with a late night take over by Brooklyn’s finest Sermon crew. We can only keep guessing at who they’ll be bringing out, but I’m sure it will not disappoint. (Yheti sunrise??) Also on the experimental bass side of the median we have neuro & glitch heavy hitters Detox Unit, Smigonaut, Somatoast, and Deez. With a some extra chiller support from 5am and Spundose. Nuero bass & glitch is on the major come up and these are just a few names you wont want to miss.
Besides the music, last year’s Lakewood festival was a summer camp wonderland complete with a pirate ship,
climbing wall, and roller skating rink. Mini-golf, kayaking, and endless workshops filled any free time you had left.
