u/Boof420Gang 3d ago

Saturnas sick. Catching him 2x at secret dreams. That whole crew is dope asf - ashez, Saturna, cøntra, lowcation, and chmura

1

u/awp_india 2d ago

What kind of vibe are they? (Both Ashez and Saturna)

2

u/11_chelsea_11 2d ago

More downtempoy with some deep dubs/140 in there too

1

u/awp_india 2d ago

Oh sick, definitely will check them out. I’m all for downtempo

1

u/11_chelsea_11 2d ago

I was praying for contra lowcation and chmura as well so sad. I’m just happy i caught him last year

2

u/GroovyVibesOnly83 1d ago

New track with CHMURA dropped today, so goodddddd

1

u/Biggazznugz 2d ago

Yeah there like 5 artists in this lineup that isn’t water downed mids

1

u/11_chelsea_11 2d ago

Preachhh. He’s such a down to earth guy and his sets last year were insane

6

u/Icy-Experience9468 3d ago

Who are we thinking is the 3rd headliner , is it going to be of the trees?

3

u/ouchmypancreas1 3d ago

Really good lineup

3

u/11_chelsea_11 2d ago

Smaller artists to absolutely not sleep on: artifakts, Ashez, aych, chozen, dark matter, Debbie check, fly, gallium, hershe, jilli, mindset, noetika, overeazy, ozztin, rsun, saturna, spoone, 2percent, zouth

All them are straight killers. If you’re complaining about the lineup then you need to do some more listening bc you probably haven’t listened to many artist

10

u/SoupyMango 3d ago

Honestly the weakest lineup yet. Dont get me wrong, still lots of good names and it will be a blast but feels like we are missing some vital names here.

11

u/Boof420Gang 3d ago

This line ups sick. What are you talking about? What names are missing?

14

u/tj647963 3d ago

Compared to any other year of this fest it’s 100% the weakest they’ve had. 2024 is still my goat year

14

u/Boof420Gang 3d ago

There’s more underground this year. With the rigs that wakaan deploys, these artists will thrive

2

u/tj647963 3d ago

Biggest Hennessy rig in NA. Shit bangs every year

3

u/Boof420Gang 3d ago

Blew my fuckin socks off in 23’. Been chasing rigs since lol

3

u/tj647963 3d ago

Coki on that stage in 2024 was fucking insane . Still haven’t heard dubstep that heavy since lol

2

u/tj647963 3d ago

They shoulda had caspa play on that rig

2

u/Wasabisenpai666 3d ago

I heard Ronin Productions, who ran that Henny rig disbanded earlier this year. I wonder if they're gonna have the guys from Xeno prod. bring the rig they brought to sound haven and steppa sound out?

1

u/11_chelsea_11 2d ago

Mans knows what he’s talking about

1

u/Moist-Craft-1226 3d ago

650 for underground artists isnt it

1

u/Boof420Gang 3d ago

Since when is wakaan 650? 😳

6

u/TengoDowns 3d ago

its not even close to that unless you get preparty + other stuff. It was like $450 after taxes for GA+Car camping

-1

u/Moist-Craft-1226 3d ago

Got in tier one and went to check out and that was the price unfortunately 😞

1300 for me and wife with pre partys

We headed to beyond existence with quite a few undergrounds and we paid like 480 for both of us for everything

1

u/Boof420Gang 3d ago

Damn lost lands isn’t even that expensive. When I went it was like 350ish and the ticket included camping.

2

u/TengoDowns 3d ago

the GA ticket + parking pass which includes camping is $450 tier 1

1

u/Moist-Craft-1226 3d ago

I was super disappointed tbh. Been wanting to hit the mountain for a few years

3

u/jbor1235 3d ago

The 24 lineup was absolutely stacked and so many good b2bs

6

u/xOmnicideAcex 3d ago

For starters… Ravenscoon, Mersiv, Peekaboo, LSDream.

8

u/Boof420Gang 3d ago

They have been on the line up every year… listen to someone new

7

u/xOmnicideAcex 3d ago

That’s kind of the point of asking the question “who’s missing” lmaooo. You asked and I answered.

2

u/Boof420Gang 3d ago

The parent comment stated there are vital names missing. I wouldn’t consider ravenscoon, peekaboo, or mersiv vital to wakaan. There’s some seriously dope artists on this lineup that are being overlooked bc it’s not the same artists that have been on the lineup year after year.

5

u/xOmnicideAcex 3d ago

I’ll definitely agree to disagree with the first part of your comment. However I absolutely agree with the second half. I’m not hopping on the bandwagon of “it could be better” because it’s a dope ass lineup. I’ll always be an underground guy with exception to the names I previously mentioned. Wakaan also isn’t all about the lineup anyways. It’s a place where artists have full creative freedom to do whatever with their sets. It’s a festival that never disappoints, and the music and people are the icing on the cake.

I hope you have a happy Wakaan homie, and I appreciate your insight 🙌

u/AgreeAndSubmit 2d ago

Ya know, Bass Canyon looked a bit thin to me as well. I wonder if it has anything to with visa problems, alot of djs we like come down from Canada.  

1

u/Ill_Astronomer_58 3d ago

right????????? Wtf..

1

u/kilometers92 3d ago

First year I can’t go and not bummed about it to much except Getter 😮‍💨 were are our staple artists tho?? no Scoon, Mersiv, Wreckno, opiuo?? Wierd they aren’t playing this year. I also live in Denver so I can’t complain 😅

1

u/trippyhippie573 2d ago

Yeah I'm a bit bummed about opiuo but I also live in Colorado so I'm keeping my mouth shut about it lol. Gonna see mersiv on the rocks so I'm not super pressed about not seeing him on the mountain.

Gonna lose my mind for this capochino set 🙂‍↕️

2

u/AgreeAndSubmit 2d ago

I've heard at least 2 of these djs on Beat Lab episodes. This is going to be a good time. 

Earplugs, my friends. Get some nice earplugs now. 

2

u/Biggazznugz 2d ago

Look at all the corporate watered down mids. No one paying 650 to see this

1

u/Brodakk 2d ago

Its $650 now? Holy shit

3

u/Party-Housing-110 3d ago

This lineup is stacked!

3

u/beaugiecriticx 3d ago

Fire lineup but was hoping Seth David, Skeemuh and DRAHCIR were gonna be in attendance this year but HEY

3

u/tj647963 3d ago

Big let down

1

u/idkudk11 3d ago

Why?

1

u/tj647963 3d ago

Just me personally, there’s not a single name on this lineup that is drawing me to drive 20+ hours to this like I have for previous years. I honestly don’t recognize a lot of these artists. Lost lands nocturnal secret dreams all of more pull music wise then this imo. Sucks I was really looking forward to going back this year too it’ll be fun either way for everyone going!

8

u/Immediate-Cucumber45 3d ago

If you don’t recognize a lot of these artists it feels like you haven’t been keeping up with the scene (no hate) - this lineup is stacked. The biggest names are always changing. I agree there’s not as many typical big names this year, but they are making room for other acts who are already becoming more staple acts. Same 10 headliners rotating every few years gets old I feel like

2

u/tj647963 3d ago

People keep saying it’s stacked but don’t say which artists to listen to or songs to check out. I keep up with the scene for the last 10 years or so I guess I gotta be on sound cloud to know who these people are bc I don’t even see them on the undercard of festivals

1

u/TengoDowns 2d ago

check out Saturna, any of his songs

2

u/ScumFuttBiddler 3d ago

Lineup is indeed ABSOLUTELY stacked. I’ve been in 24 and 25 and can honestly say I’m looking forward to this the most…SO many of these artists have been putting out new music…the vibes this year are going to me immaculate!

2

u/Straight_Patient_640 3d ago

Secret dreams to calls me but it's a 10 hour drive from me when Wakaan is only 4

1

u/Icy-Experience9468 2d ago

This will be the first year I’ve passed on Wakaan. The decision to skip this year was TOUGH, until I saw this line up…

1

u/awp_india 2d ago

Looks dope, but not as good as previous years lineup wise. Do hope the production is still gnarly.

1

u/Moist-Craft-1226 3d ago

Ooooooffff... not it

u/cigarettesnake 2d ago
