35,000 people were on hand this past Saturday to attend the first ever Hard Presents: Day Of the Dead festival in downtown Los Angeles. The lineup was one of the most eclectic we have seen of any Hard Event and we could not wait to see how it turned out.
Dillon Francis AKA the man who now looks like Flux Pavilion chimed in on our Quickfire Q&A just in time for his set tonight on the Moombahton Massive stage from 11:50-12:50AM just before bossman Diplo closes out the stage. It’s been a busy week for Dillon as he’s just released his latest single, “Bootleg Fireworks (Burning Up),” on Calvin Harris‘ Fly Eye Records this Tuesday, and he’s also gearing up for the second leg of his Wet & Reckless tour which kicks back off this Saturday in New England. Check out Dillon’s responses and full tour info below! Continue Reading
The dude, Tittsworth, is the next subject to our HARD Day of the Dead Quickfire. The tattoo-laden man from DC always throws down high-energy sets, and we expect one from him tomorrow when he plays the Moombahton Massive stage from 7:50-8:50PM. Another batch of funny answers lies below. Continue Reading
More from the Moombahton Massive stage! Bro Safari will be on from 8:50-9:50PM tomorrow night in between sets from fellow Bass aficionados, Tittsworth and Nadastrom. Read on for the hilariously witty responses from the Texan producer. Continue Reading
After playing a pumping b2b set with Nadastrom last night at our VS HARD Day of the Dead pre-party, NYC’s Sabo will be opening up the Moombahton Massive stage tomorrow evening from 6:00-6:55PM. If last night’s set was indicative of what he’ll be putting down at HARD, you won’t want to show up late and miss this one. Check out his responses to our quickfire below, and if you still haven’t, grab your tickets here! Continue Reading
