Electric Daisy Carnival in Puerto Rico

Moby at Electric Daisy CarnivalThe Electric Daisy Carnival is pretty important for fans of techno, electronic, and industrial music residing in North America. This is because it has become the largest festival to highlight these genres outside of Europe. Last year it shattered its previous record in attendees; having over 100,000 people attended the Colosseum in Los Angeles, California for the spectacle three day festival which includes Moby, Will.I.Am, and Tiesto, who you have free music online available if you are not familiar with them.

E.D.C is famous not just for its music, but for the array of people it attracts from all across the country. Before the actual performances, fans get together as early as twelve hours before to just hang out. There are raves, numerous light shows, contests, and fashion shows; all governed by the audience of E.D.C. It’s popularity has grown at such a rate that the company who originated the festival, Insomniac Events, now has an Electric Daisy Tour with dates in Colorado, Puerto Rico, and New York. Though in New York it’s called  Electric Zoo, it still attracts practically as many people.
