Skylab 2012 Preview
by Corey Blecha
The 18th annual Skylab Music Festival will take place September 22 this year at the Denver Coliseum. Put on by Triad Dragons, Skylab has consistently hosted some of the hottest names in dance music, and this year’s line-up continues a roll of top-notch headliners, with the likes of Porter Robinson and Downlink making their way to Denver.
You can always expect a lot from the Triad Dragons crew, and this year will be no exception, with plans to make it the biggest and best Skylab yet! It will kick off at 7pm, and you can expect a full night of music and madness! When you have performers like Borgore and Andy C, there’s no telling where the night could go; but I can tell you one thing, this one is going to get crazy! Hailing from Israel, Borgore has created quite a stir in the dubstep scene, with his outlandish antics and controversial collaborations (See: Miley Cyrus). Whether you love him or hate him, his live show is one of the most unique around, and you are guaranteed at least a few surprises, so if you happen to make it out to the event, check out some of his set. Rounding out a solid line-up is one of EDM’s most recent superstars, Porter Robinson, who is taking the scene by storm with his moombahton and dubstep productions. You have probably heard some of the tunes off his highly-regarded Spitfire EP, and his aggressive take on nearly every genre displays his savvy for music production with each new release.
The theme this year is “Blackout,” so the promoters are encouraging attendees to wear as much black as possible to create a dark and moody environment, perfect for the crew’s over-the-top light rigs and stage production.
