Tiesto, PVD, Dash Berlin, Richie Hawtin, Steve Lawler and Porter Robinson already announced with many more to follow...
What do you think of the lineup so far?

PVD - A nice surprise for a stage I thought I'd have no interest in again this year. While I love dancing on the beach, it'll be cool to check out a dj where the visuals are bigger than the Echo Beach stage.
Hawtin/Lawler - Disappointed that the first two Echo Beach djs are repeats from last year. Granted, they're great DJs but I'd like to see someone new in a festival setting. There are countless other big names DJs that have proven themselves to draw the crowds at other festivals that could have been booked instead. I realize there are still a lot of DJs to announce but there isn't an exciting start in my opinon
Tiesto - About 5-10 years too late. His new sound hurts my ears.
Porter/Dash - No interest in seeing these guys but I'm happy as long as there is one stage of music I'm into.

I dont think Hawtin was at last year's digital dreams.. Dubfire was tho.
This is true, as for seeing lawler and hawtin again.... im PUMPED, hawtins set last year was great! and lawler is always perfect for a sunny beach party, true we havent seen a sunrise set in howlong, but a sundown set is second best

Pretty much agree with Everything Kotsy said!! haha
like i said in another Thread on here i have a good feeling that Luciano or Danny T will close out the Echo Beach stage.
PVD is def an added benifit of walking over to the Dreams stage now....I used to follow him around from city to city years ago but really havnt listened to him the past few years but def will check him out for a bit
Def hoping for some Great Afterparties as well...Hopefully get Hawtin or somebody big to take it to the wee hours of the Morning!!

Should not have told the other half about this.
Now comes the struggle of after-party (me) v. evening festival (her).

def agree with kotsy
i understand this a relativly new festival for toronto, so iam doubtful to see anyone like kinda underground at the techno stage
while hawtin and lawler are good editions i do hope they get a few dif techno dj's and maybe some good prog ones to switch it up a lil bit
and yea iam hoping for 1 more good trance act on the main stage to totally crush it. (joc,bryan kearney,aly & fila)

Oh yes now i remember, you're right. I totally forgot he was even there because i had to leave to work (night shift) before he went on.. so i totally dismissed him as not even being there haha.
I would love to see them bring in Luciano, Davide Squillace, Loco Dice and Sven Vath. Now that would be a party.
So far unimpressed, Hawtin I'll enjoy seeing again. Lawler is always just good, never great imo. I'd love to see some new names, I'd REALLY love for them to bring back Magda as she was the highlight of Brrrrr for me. Seeing her while not being cold would be great. On the other hand, if C&C and Dubfire come back I'm going to be massively disappointed.

They wont.....Somebody from the festival already stated there are only Two that remained from last year that will be on this year....and that was Hawtin and Lawler....Fresh new Faces now
