EDC Live - EDC Las Vegas 2016: Da Tweekaz
wasteLAND hosted by Basscon
Da Tweekaz at wasteLAND during EDC Las Vegas 2016 is a commitment to a very specific, BPM-fueled reality—one of relentless kicks, screeching leads, and unironic joy. We brace ourselves for the audio equivalent of a sugar rush, a world where subtlety is banned and energy is king. The vibe is pure, unadulterated hardstyle festival madness, all bouncing crowds and synchronized fist pumps under the Basscon banner. Technically, this is hardstyle and hard dance in its most celebratory form, averaging a frantic 150 BPM and frequently anchored in the powerful, direct key of 3B.
The energy profile is remarkably balanced between low and mid (avg 0.44 and 0.45), meaning the punishing kick drums and frenetic melodic leads fight for dominance in a glorious, exhausting cacophony. Transitions are often quick and impactful, using breaks and build-ups to launch into the next anthem with maximum force. The tracklist is a treasure trove for the genre faithful: the 'Swamp Thing' edit is a monstrous, quirky opener, '#Tweekay14' is a signature melodic bomb, and 'D.W.X' with Coone is a classic hardstyle anthem. The inclusion of Axwell Λ Ingrosso's 'Sun Is Shining' in a hardstyle context is a hilarious and effective crossover move, while 'Wodka' and 'Freedom' deliver the euphoric, sing-along moments the genre is built on.
The journey is a relentless sprint: from the chaotic fun of 'Swamp Thing', through the peak-time rush of '#Tweekay14', to the triumphant finale of 'D.W.X'. A definitive dose of hard dance heritage.
