Taylor Swift Teams Up With ILLENIUM for Soaring Remix of “Anti-Hero”
Unlike Ticketmaster, there’s no bad blood between Taylor Swift and ILLENIUM.

Seismic Dance Event Quakes the Status Quo—By Prioritizing the Ultimate Techno and House Music Experience
After concluding it’s milestone fifth year of action in the “live music capital of the world,” it’s clear Seismic Dance Event has not only found its flow, but is also actively reaching higher for the next rung on the ladder to festival greatness.

More monetary resources generally affords higher profile talent bookings, more jaw-dropping production and effects, increasingly extravagant amenities and more. Seismic Dance Event is among the few notable event brands where the best of...

And after this year’s fest in Orlando, the star of EDC’s legend somehow got even brighter. There was no ambiguity when it came to Insomniac’s commitment to fan experiences. Tinker Field became an adult playground where ravers could frolic through swaths of giant mushrooms by day before they transformed into polychromatic art installations by night. Towering LED daises glittered beneath the night sky, which ultimately became a c...
