FBI Bass Selects: Your official guide to must-see sets at EDC Las Vegas 2024

Bass music is taking over Vegas under the Electric Sky this year featuring riddim, drum and bass, hardstyle & more.


EDC Las Vegas


The opportunities are endless at this year’s EDC Las Vegas.


With an overwhelming presence of riddim, premiere b2bs and infinite bass sets, EDC Las Vegas is being infiltrated with every version of bass. We are proud to say that many artists on this lineup will be making their debut at EDC, and this lineup has truly proven Insomniac’s word of inclusivity.


These artists can be caught at some of EDC’s notable stages such as BassPOD, WasteLAND, CosmicMEADOW and more. In addition, EDCLV is also featuring the Meta Phoenix art car stage, with a Bassrush takeover that we’re covering (more on that below)…


This year, EDC’s theme is embracing life in its full circle, with the theme being #kineticCIRCLE. Dubstep FBI is more than ready to come into the full circle and investigate these upcoming bass sets. We may not catch them all, but we’ll be sure to retrieve what’s needed for the case files!


Here’s a guide to our top-pick, sets-to-see at this year’s EDC Las Vegas.


 

Hivemind (Kayzo x Space Laces x MUST DIE!), Friday at WasteLAND


Hivemind

The set everyone's BUZZING about– introducing Hivemind to EDC. Launching the Hivemind project this year, Kayzo, Space Laces and MUST DIE! have joined forces and are pushing hard dance to the next level. Having only one set so far at Bullseye, we are surely anticipating to see what the trio has in store.


LAYZ, Friday at BassPOD

LAYZ is coming back once again in full #kineticCIRCLE, being her debut at BassPOD. Since her last appearance at EDCLV at the Welcome Records art car in 2022, she’s only gone up in the scene, exponentially growing her brand. We highly believe that it has been long overdue for a LAYZ Basspod set and can't wait to welcome her back to EDCLV.


Riddim-takeover, Friday at Meta Phoenix Art Car



Time to gear up – high knees will 100 percent be in formation on day one. Our riddim besties Algo, CHIBS, OG NIXIN, PYKE, Sanzu, VKTM and a surprise, mystery guest will rightfully be taking their place at the Meta Phoenix Art Car stage, delivering a riddim stage takeover at EDCLV.


VLCN, Friday at Meta Phoenix


Incoming invasion – VLCN will be making an appearance at Meta Phoenix this year at EDCLV. Pushing efforts in his melodic bass project this past year, featuring his latest collab with ARMNHMR and Nevve, VLCN will be bringing in a brand new set, delivering some unreleased heavy-hitters and extreme cry-bangers.


HEDEX, Saturday at BassPOD



People have BEEN saying this year is THE YEAR of drum and bass and it’s finally being validated. HEDEX has been trending up for DnB and to miss this set would be considered a violation.


Subtronics b2b LEVEL UP, Saturday at BassPOD



As if this lineup hasn’t already been filled with surprises, Subtronics and LEVEL UP are hitting BassPOD with their first-ever official B2B together! Although they might’ve been caught at a few afters, EDC will be the first time they’ll be doing a B2B on main stage. Subtronics claims that they’ll be planning ‘a bunch of crazy sh*t’.


Crankdat, Saturday at BassPOD

Crankdat has been having a breakthrough year with his Total Termination Tour coming in full force. It’s a no-brainer to see him on this year’s lineup for EDC, and we are in much need of Crankdat’s cracked-energy at BassPOD.


Worship (Sub Focus x Dimension x Culture Shock x 1991), Saturday at CosmicMEADOW



This set will be the ultimate DnB showdown. The four iconic legends will be taking CosmicMEADOW head-on, having the biggest b2b of the weekend. After completing their WORSHIP tour run with three sold out shows, they’re more than ready to bring it on to the EDC fairgrounds.


JEANIE, Sunday at BassPOD


For Day 3, Queen JEANIE, founder of GRL GANG label, is leading us ‘Into the Dark’ at BassPOD. From being on her own headlining tour to running a label, JEANIE is living proof of a queen that can do it all.


Zingara, Sunday at BassPOD

Who’s ready to get spiritual? Miss cutie-pie Zingara is showing BassPOD some wubs on its final day. Zingara has been presenting her manifestations across North America on her ‘Code of Dreamz Tour’ and we are far more than stoked to be dreaming with her at EDC this year!


YDG, Steller and Inaktiv, Sunday at Wide Awake Art Car (Camp EDC)



For those who have access to Camp EDC, be sure to catch YDG, Steller and Inaktiv in the campgrounds! These three will be hosting the ultimate Bass EDC pre-party, which everyone will be Wide Awake for.


 

In complete honesty, the list of sets can go on and on for this year’s lineup. Featuring a wide selection of genres and talented, well-deserved artists, EDCLV is filled with endless opportunities. We are looking forward to being under the Electric Sky and joining the #kineticCIRCLE.
