1. Subtronics

Still riding a high of his 2022 album ‘Fractals‘, including the VIP remix released album ‘Antifractals‘, Subtronics is going to be a set to remember this year in his debut at Ultra.

5. Kill The Noise

Returning to the Worldwide Stage for the third time this year, Kill The Noise resurfaced just last year after his massive release back in 2016 ‘Alt Classic‘, a follow-up to ‘Occult Classic‘ released in 2015.  After taking a few years off, he came with heavier beats than ever in 2022 with his album ‘Embrace‘. This is going to be a great set filled with classic drops and newly designed genre-bending synths that’ll keep you on your toes. He’ll be performing Saturday, March 25th.

6. Liquid Stranger

Making his debut at the Worldwide Stage this year, Liquid Stranger is slated to perform on Saturday, March 25th. The Swedish-born DJ and producer is known for his slinky and far-out basslines are also described as “the epitome of Transnational Dubstep covering everything from Latin, Asian, Eastern European and Jamaican Dancehall dubs”. You’re not going to want to miss this.

Tracks to check out: Hotbox, Take A Trip, Dissolve

7. Crankdat

While Crankdat has been a staple in bass music for quite some time, he recently has been going viral on TikTok for his deconstruction of “weird robot noises” incorporated into popular music, such as Taylor Swift’s ‘Antihero’. This set is going to shake the ground and if you’re looking for the heaviest among this list, Crankdat takes the cake.
