Escape Halloween, the world’s largest Halloween music festival, is just around the corner, with a lineup destined to make the 13th edition its best one yet. Returning to the NOS Events Center in San Bernardino, CA on Friday, October 25 and Saturday, October 26, Escape will feature an expansive lineup of over 80 artists across five+ immersive stages of frightful fun. Unsure of which artists to check out? Read below for a lists of 5 artists to catch at this year’s spooky event. A dynamic DJ duo on the rise, KREAM features Norwegian brothers Daniel and Markus Slettebakken. Known for their unique take on melodic tech house, the duo was first discovered on SoundCloud through their remixes and have since garnered over a billion plays with their original releases. You may have seen their LIQUID : LAB series on Youtube, which has become one of the biggest online events in dance music, broadcasting from unique locations across Norway to millions of viewers worldwide. Don’t miss the rare opportunity to see this duo perform stateside! OMNOM is a rising star in the electronic music scene, known for his innovative and vibrant take on house and tech house beats. Hailing from Los Angeles, the DJ/producer has quickly gained recognition for his ability to seamlessly blend genres and create unforgettable auditory experiences. Since his breakout track, ‘Fo Free,‘ in 2018, OMNOM has continued to prove why he’s one of dance music’s most promising stars, with no signs of slowing any time soon. Catch this DJ at Escape this year to see what all the fuss is about. Hailing from Oxford, UK, Hamdi is one of the most versatile DJ/producers on the scene right now. Drawing influences from early 90’s hip hop and electro, he’s known for energetic live sets and his ability to produce a broad range of styles with signature dubstep sound design. His breakout track in 2017, ‘Show Me‘ with Sammy Virji took the UK bass scene by storm, and he has since become a highly sought after booking, so don’t miss your chance to see Hamdi perform on the stages of Escape this year! I first had the pleasure of experiencing Mary Droppinz live at Deadrocks earlier this summer. I knew nothing about her but was blown away by her infectious energy on the stage, as well as her diverse stylings, covering everything from wonky bass music to tech house. Her upcoming UKG set at Escape will likely channel more of her house and techno roots, rather than her recent explorations in bass music, so come prepared to shuffle and dance the night away with the unmatched energy a Mary Droppinz set will provide! I must say, the energy of the crowd during an Odd Mob set is hard to top. This Australian DJ/producer has a flair for identifying unique sounds and producing unconventionally groovy tracks. Known for hit releases like ‘Losing Control‘ on John Summit’s Experts Only imprint, Odd Mob has skyrocketed into the spotlight this past year, and for good reason. Do NOT miss Odd Mob if you’re into funky, high energy house music. Hopefully now you have some inspiration to get you started as you begin building your itinerary for Escape Halloween later this month. If you haven’t purchased tickets yet, don’t worry there’s still time – tickets are available here. See you at NOS!5 Artists To Catch At Escape Halloween This Year
