Anniversary Edition Spotlights Electronic Music

Austin City Limits returns to Zilker Park for its 25th year October 2-4 and 9-11. This year's lineup leans heavily into electronic music, balancing veterans who shaped the genre with emerging producers pushing its boundaries.

Skrillex Returns After 12-Year Absence

Skrillex headlines the electronic contingent fresh off his fifth studio album SOMA. The dubstep pioneer last played Austin 12 years ago and is expected to blend catalog cuts with new material and flips.

Rising Bass Acts and Experimental Selectors

Levity, the dubstep trio who made their debut Coachella appearance earlier this year and earned a spot in EDM.com's Class of 2024, bring tracks like 'ONE FOR YOU' with ALLEYCVT and 'Pop Off' with GRiZ. "Finding other people that enjoy the same music, that it makes them feel the same way, is such an important part of coming to these shows," Levity's John Hauldren told EDM.com in a recent interview. "Being surrounded by people that enjoy the same music, and having something that feels like home or family, because maybe you don't have that in your life, is such a big part of it."

Japanese DJ ¥ØU$UK€ ¥UK1MAT$U, who has worked his way from construction to the Coachella decks, delivers genre-blending sets known for meticulous detail. Fcukers play Tito's Tent Sunday of both weekends, bringing their house, alt-dance, and UK garage hybrid to tracks like 'if you wanna party, come over to my house' and 'Bon Bon'. German DJ BUNT. brings progressive builds and emotive payoffs with tracks like 'TRIPPIN' and 'Clouds'.

Tickets remain available through the festival's website.
