Expect to hear DJs and live-acts playing the following styles of music: psytrance, electro, house, progressive, breakbeat, drum & bass, jungle, fidget, tribal, ambient, techno, trance, world, percussion, acid-jazz, downtempo, funk, rock, hip-hop, glitch, dub, dubstep, glitch-hop, psy-dub, minimal, idm, hardcore, and experimental strains of electronically-influenced music.
