• ILLENIUM: Leading the live electronic music renaissance with adeptness for creating aural arrangements that vary in style, complexity, and emotional depth, ILLENIUM has developed a new sphere in which sound design can be crafted and experienced. This dedication to pushing sonic boundaries is put on full display in his live show, which incorporates keyboards, drum pads, and cutting-edge lighting and visuals, all of which combine to create an immersive experience. Last month, ILLENIUM’s third full-length album ASCEND dominated charts, capturing the premiere spot on Billboard’s Top Dance Albums Chart and iTunes Top Dance Albums Chart.

• Alesso: Leading the X Games Aspen 2020 lineup is Grammy nominated producer and electronic music titan Alesso. Over the years the Swedish star has collaborated with chart topping acts like Calvin Harris, Usher, David Guetta, Sebastian Ingrosso, OneRepublic’s Ryan Tedder, and more, while delivering a bevy of genre bending solo work. These accomplishments have seen him takeover some of the festival circuit’s biggest stages at Coachella, Tomorrowland, Electric Daisy Carnival, and Creamfields just to name a few.

Sunday, Jan. 26
