EDMers Australia-wide emitted a loud ‘Feck yes’ when a fuzzy screenshot of what appeared to be the poster for Stereosonic 2015‘s Melbourne event, complete with line-up, was leaked by Music Feeds last night. BUT we were reticent to confirm it as legit, lest we dash anyone’s sweaty festival dreams.
ICYMI, here’s the grainy screenshot in question:
Now, the head-banging powers that be have confirmed the allegedly fake line-up is actually the actual, legit line-up.
The biggest coup as we know, Major Lazer, joined by Armin Van Buuren, Axwell^Ingrosso, DJ Snake, Duke Dumont (live), Galantis and Clean Bandit, to name the ones that gets our pulse racing.
The line-up also includes a host of Aussie talent, including Peking Duk, Will Sparks, Hot Dub Time Machine, Timmy Trumpet, Slumberjack and Carmada.
