Zeds Dead 

Canadian electronic duo Zeds Dead from Toronto, Canada is comprised of members Dylan Mamid (aka DC) and Zachary Rapp-Rovan (aka Hooks). The group started producing hip-hop music under the name Mass Productions in 2004 and transitioned to Zeds Dead in 2009. Their music style is versatile with roots in deep house, dubstep, drum and bass, drum step, electro-house, and trap.

Their sets will blow your mind with mind-altering lasers, trippy visuals, and surges of face-melting bass. A few of their well-known singles are Rude Boy, Collapse, and In the Beginning. You will not want to miss this dynamic Canadian duo perform on Saturday. Zeds Dead’s record label, Deadbeats, will also be hosting a stage at Das Energi. Keep an eye out for the eccentric artists that will be gracing the Deadbeats stage.

Chris Lake

Grammy-nominated British DJ and producer Chris Lake has taken the global House scene by storm. His claim to fame stems from his unique ability to combine electro, house, and techno elements into his music. The release of his smash hit “Changes” launched him into national charts and turned into a worldwide hit. Lake received his first Grammy nomination when he collaborated with Deadmau5 on the album “4×4=12.” 

Over the past several years, he has toured all four corners of the world and played at some of the biggest clubs on the planet including Space, Ministry of Sound, and Amnesia to name a few. He has also played for a plethora of fans at some of the biggest festivals across the globe including Creamfields and Tomorrowland. 

The only way is up for Chris as far as his music career goes. You can expect to see him dominate the House scene for years to come. Listen to his iconic track entitled “Operator” in preparation for the festival and don’t forget to dance your heart out to his set at Das Energi.

Troyboi

British producer Troy Henry, aka TroyBoi, is a multicultural electronic music artist who has produced and remixed tracks for rap, R&B, and pop artists in addition to releasing work under his own name. He is a native of South East London, England who arrived during the early 2010s and is most frequently associated with trap music, though his output has also veered from electro-house to commercial dance-pop. 

Among his most prominent productions are Little Mix’s “Lightning” and Serayah’s “Get No Better (2.0),” while he has remixed tracks by Danny Brown (“Smokin & Drinkin”), Missy Elliott (“WTF [Where They From]”), and ZAYN (“Like I Would”). In 2017, Henry issued his debut full-length, Left Is Right, a bass-heavy collection that included collaborations with Healthy Chill, Nefera, Y.A.S, and Ice Cube. The next year, he issued the EP V!BEZ, featuring David Stewart on the track “Spooky.” The follow-up, V!BEZ, Vol. 2, landed later that year.

Prepare yourself for this Diplo-approved trap-oriented producer’s set. You will not want to miss out on his sick beats as he takes over Das Energi.
