Matoma seems pretty chill, he has some awesome remixes. borns seems pretty cool, bahamas is amazing as hell.
Matoma is great - I'm seriously considering going solo to check out their DC concert next week, even though it is late on a weekday night. I'm afraid they will conflict with something I'm more attached to seeing at FF.
BORNS & Bahamas are both fantastic. Try Jungle too if you haven't already, if you like BORNS.
Gonna be "that guy" real quick...Matoma is one person. With that being said you should definitely check out his DC show next week.
My favorite undercards so far that I am personally discovering (non edm):
GRIZFOLK, Vacationer, Generationals, Max Frost
Edit: I've been playing GRIZFOLK - Waiting For You on repeat today
lmfao the killers were seriously the #1 pick from the survey? Didnt that have like Daft Punk and the stones on it?
people are crazy. i was wondering how Paramore got #7 at hangout and someone told me they were the 4th most suggested band ahead of MMJ and tons of other great bands! shit makes no sense

DelawareOnline did a survey that had Pearl Jam as the number one requested band for Firefly (and I think for the 2nd year in a row), the Killers weren't even in the top 10. Granted there were only a few thousand votes I think.
I honestly believe that the Killers would beat Daft Punk and the Rolling Stones in a FF poll? They shouldn't, but mainstream acts like them are what facebook poll voeters are gonna choose. Just go look at certain bands Spotifty followers. I think MMJ has like 120k compared to Paramore's 950k. The most followed artist on Spotify is David fucking Guetta, so that's just the sad world we live in now. I mean look at all the people that seriously wanted Imagine Dragons over Macca. That just leaves me at a loss for words.
If voting doesn't really matter IRL, why would we expect it to be any different with Firefly?
You speak the truth, sir.
And now that Paramore has been brought up - man, I really feel bad for Hangout that they wasted a top line name on that shit. Just like I feel bad for us that FF wasted a top line name on Bastille.
Considering you've found the need to respond to my threads as if you are threatened by me I offer you some peace my confused counterpart. May you find peace in your restless soul.

i'd rather bastille than paramore! saw paramore a few years ago open for no doubt. it was awful
"Despite friendly competition with Europe, recording studios, and a handful of family weddings, we could not be more proud to celebrate our most fan-driven, diverse, and legendary lineup yet."
I wonder what bands they wanted to get, but couldn't because of family weddings.

Haha I had the same thought, somehow found myself more curious on the wedding front than who is in studio..
Okay, so I had promised that I would give more genre-specific recommendations instead of just "hai, I like these artists/bands," so I'm gonna do that now.
-If you like MØ/Banks/MS MR/that type of chill sorta trancey pop sound, definitely check out Broods. -Ryn Weaver, Tove Lo and Zella Day are quite similar; if you like one, you'll probably dig the others. -Jungle is hard to explain. They are simultaneously soothing and chill yet super dancey and just make you want to move around boppin' to and fro while you're listening. Type of music: dope. -If you're a Tallest Man on Earth fan --> Joe Pug. -I think most people know Sylvan Esso by now, but they have a very lovely, minimalist sound to them. Her voice is smooth and creamy and perfectly complimented by the electro beats that back their tracks. Fantastic duo. -Odesza is a great EDM act, similar to Phantogram in some ways I think. Most of their tracks have an ethereal sounding female vocalist (not all). Kinda like Jungle in that I find some of their tracks so relaxing but then also feel the desire to bop around to their music. Diverse set of tracks, even though they don't have that much released yet. -Milo Greene could be likened to Lord Huron - at times the XX but more acoustic, less electronically centered. Maybe some Paper Kites type sound in there too.
