In 2019, I'd like to attend bigger events next year that I haven't had the chance to attend in the past. One of these events that I had been strongly considering was EDC Mexico.

This year’s lineup was stacked with some of the best trance artists out there, such as Gareth Emery, Ferry Corsten, Giuseppe Ottovani, Bryan Kearney, and many more. Continue Reading
