Founded in 2015, Phoenix Lights Festival is a 2 day massive music festival, held just outside Phoenix, Arizona. This year's event boasts a killer lineup and is set to take place at The Park at Wild Horse Pass on April 7th & 8th, 2018. The event's host, Relentless Beats, has been paving the way for Phoenixâs rave scene, organizing diverse and fresh lineups, especially this year's.Â
Â
Seven Lions
Seven Lions is one of the artists I canât miss when heâs playing at an event! Heâs known for effortlessly mixing in trance and dubstep into his sets, taking the crowd on a journey of feels to headbanging to some hardcore bass. His first episode of The Observatory is a perfect example of his musical taste, starting off with the slow melodic tunes of Lane 8 and later bringing in the fire with âCold Heartedâ, his collaboration with Kill the Noise. If youâre a dubstep and trance lover, Seven Lions is for you!

Green Velvet
After years of raving, Iâve slowly started to appreciate deep house, techno, tech house, and minimal techno for the groovy beats. One of the first techno artists I saw was Green Velvet in San Francisco last year and he blew my mind! I didnât know I could dance so much. For those wanting to explore the deep side of electronic music, Green Velvet is an artist to not miss at Phoenix Lights.
Goldfish
A unique experience to witness, Cape Townâs Goldfish is one of the few upcoming artists you absolutely MUST check out! Their tour includes a live performance of the duo jamming out on the keyboard, double bass, flute and saxophone along with the electronic synths. Their latest mixtape is just a taste of what to expect when you see them live in April!
Chris Lake
"Ring ring goes the telephone, thereâs no one home..." Sounds familiar, right? Youâve probably heard house producer Chris Lakeâs famous song, âOperatorâ without even knowing. You might have even gotten the catchy tune stuck in your head. Lake has even collaborated with Chris Lorenzo to make an equally groovy single called âNothing Betterâ, which I currently have on repeat. If you like to shake your rave booty, Chris Lake better be on your set schedule!
Martin Garrix
This a little embarrassing to admit, but I have never seen Martin Garrix live. The only song I really knew from Martin Garrix was âAnimalsâ, the song that made him popular back in 2013. Browsing through his Soundcloud, I fell in love with his single called âPizzaâ, which reminded me of the good olâ days back in 2012, when house music was at its peak. If youâre attending Phoenix Lights, catch his set for me!
