EDC Las Vegas 2022 - wasteLAND Mix
The wasteLAND at EDC Las Vegas is where sentimentality goes to die, replaced by a joyful, fist-pumping obsession with 150 BPM kicks and euphoric synth leads. This 2022 mix is a pure hit of hardstyle and its various euphoric subgenres, designed for those who believe a melody should be felt in your sternum. The vibe is unapologetically energetic, a carnival of LED wings and synchronized jumping. Technically, it's a hardstyle and hard dance journey, averaging 151 BPM and shifting between the anthem-ready keys of 12A and 3B.
The energy is a powerful blend: 56% low-end provides the driving kick, 32% mid-range carries the soaring melodies, and 11% high-end adds the essential screech and clap. It's a mix of classic anthems and modern productions. 'Wildstylez - Sanctuary' opens with cinematic, trance-influenced grandeur. 'Adrenalize - Epic Sax Song' is exactly the kind of ridiculous, sax-driven joy we secretly love.
'Hpnotic - Move Your Body' is a raw, pounding classic, while 'Headhunterz - Dragonborn part 3' offers a more epic, vocal-driven narrative. The journey begins with the atmospheric build of 'Sanctuary', peaks with the relentless energy of tracks like 'The Great Escape', and closes on the emotional, vocal hardstyle of 'Crude Intentions - Eternal (feat. Enya Angel)'.
