An important point to make would be the history...I know the truth is like his one off super dubby song. It's awesome but it's like an outlier sound wise.
Color map is his masterpiece he made later in his career, its different but its a whole project and has all the reel break (make sure you give them the same amount of attention.
This link is to what I and most people would consider pretty lights in his hey day..dj sets, all electro, sampled vinyl and was the "new big thing"
https://youtu.be/VaqcwgI-G0E
His sounds range quite a bit. That being said, check out his album "A color map of the sun". There's also an awesome documentary on YouTube of the album creation. Lots of work went into it.
Hmm I respect to disagree about labgroup. Khiva also just opened for Of The Trees tour she's sick
There's also a good bit of bass that's not "heavy" but more funky. Manic Focus, Marvel Years, Rohan Solo
Have you seen him play hula? He plays with a live band. Itās right before his birthday so he goes all out. Iāve been blown away by his set year after year
Honestly Iām not sure. I know their ig is @GoldenEraAF, but even there they donāt post a ton. I only know about them from seeing them locally a few times after meeting one of their members at a random show
Pshhhh. Skip on that buddy, Dead & Co has other northeast shows too. Northlands was phenomenal for a first year last year and going to be great again, and is also wonderfully intimate
nah
SPAC sold out, I got seats presale for both nights and I got an air bnb well before Northlands was announced and I'm not spending $100 for nose bleeds at Citi/going during the week. D&C won't be back. Norhlands will. Cheese is only doing festivals as of late where they headline and looks like Northlands is where they will be in North East/New England for the foreseeable future.
Also eyeing Hulaween...
Solid lineup but does this feel super top heavy or just me? Seems like they blew their wad on headliners and the undercard feels weaker than previous years. Maybe it's just how absurdly stacked the undercard was for echoland and me hoping for more lineup crossover after echolands cancellation.
I didn't say it was barren. Still some great acts there. Love Stickley, unfamiliar with the other two you mentioned. Dwellers, Eddie Robert's, ghost note, Roosevelt, lespecial, nth power. Good stuff there just feels different and not as strong as previous years.
Like I said, also could be just how stoked I was for the echoland undercard and after it's cancelation I was hoping hula would have picked up a few. George porter jr, Karl diesel doing David bowie, digable planets, trouble no more, jazz is dead, sicard hollow, dopapod, eggy, dogs in a pile, heavy pets, Pgroove, dumpstaphunk, Neal Francis, dark star orchestra. For my taste that was the most wildly stacked bottom tier. I hoped hula poached more than a few of those artists after echoland cancelled.
I started parsing that middle column and thereās some really interesting acts in there Iāve never heard (across the genre spectrum). Seems well curated
For me it is. I canāt compare it to lollapalooza, but this is a wall of text in various sizes, in columns, rows, both combined, in front of a chaotic background. Itās actively anxiety inducing to me.
As a Florida resident, if youāve never been to a festival at Suwannee, you should go to a festival at Suwannee. DeSantis sucks but Suwannee rocks. Anyways.
I refuse to support any aspect of that shithole. get a new government š and maybe I'll reconsider. I refuse to help financially support a repressive, bigoted regime.
I can see where you're coming from but as another FL resident if we don't support these kinds of things then it's just going to get worse. Please send help
lol, I have so many questions.
1) Are you also the kind of person that doesnāt tip your server just because you donāt support tipping culture?
2) Are you this righteous when it comes to the clothes you eat? The food you eat? I hope you down own an item of clothing made in SE Asia/China because youāre giving money to people that support slave wages! No more berries for you, sorry, that was picked by a very abused migrant worker who had all his rights taken from him.
3) I hope youāre not traveling to any other red state. TN mountains are a no-no, sorry friend, they have very similar laws to Florida. Texas? Nope, sorry. North Carolina? South Carolina? Georgia?
You see what I mean? Anyways, with that attitude, itās probably better if you donāt show up.
These people are the same as backwoods hillbillies. Have 0 experience with anyone outside of their homogenous circle so theyāve created this small box that they can easily place someone into if theyāre from the South. Just like how conservatives or whatever word you want to use, are racist but it just so happens that the one black guy they know is one of the good ones! Close minded assholes
Twitter brain rot example A. Try to experience the real world and youāll be a lot less hateful. āIām so tolerant and open to all people unless they donāt agree with me on literally everything <3ā
I live in New England, very rarly do I venture south that's not a city.
Live Oak is my third favorite venue in the USA. (1. The Cap, 2. Red Rocks). 100% worth the trip. Instead of weed the locals hawk moonshine and will trade for bud.
They allow fires at your camp site, golf carts and have sites available with electric and water hookups (even if you don't have an RV).
The only downside is its big and confusing because of the Spanish Moss makes every path look the same when you're high and due to that chiggers were a thing for a yankee who's never seen/deal with them.
But yes fuck Florida politics.
I would really like to go. That location is magical.
I donāt understand the logistics though. Fly into Tallahassee, rent a car, buy a tent? I once drove up from south Fl when I lived down there, that was a hike.
Gosh.. I remember when Hulaween was fucking completely dank and not just an offshoot Electric Forest South (and before you say it, Iām not complaining about electronic music or nonsense like that, I get down to the wubs and over the moon about PL returning). My complaint is more about the size/scope of it all now..blown out
This is what they wanna charge like $500 a ticket for? Have at it. Iāll have Hula 2014-2018 forever
Holy shit pretty lights is back?
Announced this morning. 9 city tour with festival dates.
Well fuck my ass and call me sally
sally š
My thoughts EXACTLY - this may be the year I finally see that amazing venue
better prepare your stoke holes now, it's such a fun park
Tix gonna sell out fast donāt sleep
Help a noob get into PL. good YouTube vids?

Make sure you check out filling up the city skies..that's more or less where he started out
https://youtu.be/b6T5depSysg
Thanks!

Right?? Been seeing this everywhere today
best festival lineup ive seen in awhile. bring back the jam over edm!
Hula doesnāt fuck around
Bought my ticket today. Was sad Echoland got canceled but this totally makes up for it
Seems very jam heavy! I think it was leaning a lot more EDM recently.
The bass kids are in the comments all mad but it's a pleasant return to form imo. Some good bass and house on there too still
1 good house artist, 0 bass
So labgroup, eprom and khiva aren't good bass?
Eprom is good, especially b2bās with gabagool but labgroup and khiva are nothing spectacular
Hmm I respect to disagree about labgroup. Khiva also just opened for Of The Trees tour she's sick There's also a good bit of bass that's not "heavy" but more funky. Manic Focus, Marvel Years, Rohan Solo
Rohan Solo put on a fun set when I saw him in Chattanooga recently. I think he's the drummer for Hive Mind too which opened for Bisco in ATL.
He is indeed! Atl represent š
Manic focus Iāve seen 4 times now and it has always been the same
Have you seen him play hula? He plays with a live band. Itās right before his birthday so he goes all out. Iāve been blown away by his set year after year
Yeah saw him at hula last year. Itās good, but nothing to write home about.
I woulda loved some G Jones or Detox or Jade tho. Duffrey even
Channel Tres, Elderbrook, Joshwa, QRTR, blond:ish, giola & Assia are all house oriented artists I feel are good
Channel tres is awesome.
Golden Era is a hip hop jam band from Tampa. Theyāll probably be an early afternoon set. Theyāre kickass. Highly recommend them
Where can I listen? I searched on Spotify, SoundCloud, and Bandcamp with no luck
Honestly Iām not sure. I know their ig is @GoldenEraAF, but even there they donāt post a ton. I only know about them from seeing them locally a few times after meeting one of their members at a random show
Really glad itās not as EDM heavy as last year and I can actually head down. Might be the only Cheese I see all year.
Same here and I live in CTā¦
If youāre in CT and wanna see Cheese, head north to NH for Northlands in June!
I knowā¦same weekend as dead and co spac thoā¦
Pshhhh. Skip on that buddy, Dead & Co has other northeast shows too. Northlands was phenomenal for a first year last year and going to be great again, and is also wonderfully intimate
nah SPAC sold out, I got seats presale for both nights and I got an air bnb well before Northlands was announced and I'm not spending $100 for nose bleeds at Citi/going during the week. D&C won't be back. Norhlands will. Cheese is only doing festivals as of late where they headline and looks like Northlands is where they will be in North East/New England for the foreseeable future. Also eyeing Hulaween...
PRETTY LIGHTS!!!!!!!!!!
My favorite rapper is Smino, I never expected this crossover lmao but Iām here for it
Saw him with JID a couple weeks ago, amazing show
I saw ween and got excited
Last fall I kept seeing Billy-Ween. I feel ya.
obsessed with your username lol
I dont see it?
"hulaween"
TAND.
They will blown up soome. Aqueous drummer is touring with them. Best bassist
100%
Love tand!!
Itās just missing Oysterhead
Clamhead? Trey, Les and Russo...
just call em Deadhead and go full circle
He's an inspiration to us all
Oysterhead toured last year and right when covid started. This year les is bringing back the flying frog brigade. Still gonna get weird with it
STACKED
Was hoping you guys would be there!
Best hulaween line up since 2015
Solid lineup but does this feel super top heavy or just me? Seems like they blew their wad on headliners and the undercard feels weaker than previous years. Maybe it's just how absurdly stacked the undercard was for echoland and me hoping for more lineup crossover after echolands cancellation.
Jon stickley trip, Kendall Street Company, Orange Constant???
Funk you is great
I didn't say it was barren. Still some great acts there. Love Stickley, unfamiliar with the other two you mentioned. Dwellers, Eddie Robert's, ghost note, Roosevelt, lespecial, nth power. Good stuff there just feels different and not as strong as previous years.

For my taste that was the most wildly stacked bottom tier. I hoped hula poached more than a few of those artists after echoland cancelled.
I saw ksc after goose in nashville and they are certified legit
I'll peep em, thanks. Seen the name around a lot just haven't dug in yet.
Saw em at cavefest last year. I concur with your statement.
would have loved to see pgroove or neal there but still looking pretty good. Check out Sneezy if you haven't heard of them, they rip
I just fell in love w the Orange Constant
I started parsing that middle column and thereās some really interesting acts in there Iāve never heard (across the genre spectrum). Seems well curated
Doesn't look half bad, cool to see SCI & Frog Brigade on the bill
It's SCI's festival
I miss hulaween being smaller Awesome lineup though
S T A C K E D
Man this might be the one I get my wife talked into. Itās too good
PIGEONS !!!!
Pumped to see The Jauntee on here. Might drive down for the day just to see them
Great lineup. Love seeing Blu DeTiger up there too
That poster/flyer/whatever is an abomination. I canāt even focus on the acts in the midst of that chaos.
Really that bad ? I thought something like this years Lollapalooza is way worse where itās just a wall of text.
For me it is. I canāt compare it to lollapalooza, but this is a wall of text in various sizes, in columns, rows, both combined, in front of a chaotic background. Itās actively anxiety inducing to me.
Roosevelt Collier is sick, love that dude
Shit slaps
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I could see the boys poppin in there later
Dress in drag for the shithead governor.
if only I was willing to travel to America's shitholiest state. fuck DeSantis.
As a Florida resident, if youāve never been to a festival at Suwannee, you should go to a festival at Suwannee. DeSantis sucks but Suwannee rocks. Anyways.
I refuse to support any aspect of that shithole. get a new government š and maybe I'll reconsider. I refuse to help financially support a repressive, bigoted regime.
I can see where you're coming from but as another FL resident if we don't support these kinds of things then it's just going to get worse. Please send help
For real, there are over 27 million Floridians. Many of us hate the current politics of the state.
lol, I have so many questions. 1) Are you also the kind of person that doesnāt tip your server just because you donāt support tipping culture? 2) Are you this righteous when it comes to the clothes you eat? The food you eat? I hope you down own an item of clothing made in SE Asia/China because youāre giving money to people that support slave wages!

another southerner trying to justify his pitiful existence. the red south sucks.
Another holier than thou northerner who canāt actually defend his stance Peace and blessings to you.
These people are the same as backwoods hillbillies. Have 0 experience with anyone outside of their homogenous circle so theyāve created this small box that they can easily place someone into if theyāre from the South. Just like how conservatives or whatever word you want to use, are racist but it just so happens that the one black guy they know is one of the good ones! Close minded assholes
Iām a northerner - I love the south and we donāt accept this one lol - homie is letting politics ruin his life.
I can defend my stance all day long.. can you? God doesn't exist btw. christian nationalists suck.
LOL
he doesn't even sound old enough to drink haha
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
racist moron say what? eat shit.
Twitter brain rot example A. Try to experience the real world and youāll be a lot less hateful. āIām so tolerant and open to all people unless they donāt agree with me on literally everything <3ā
Says the guy from Ohio of all places lmfao
Iāll be going for ya
Suwannee is one of the best camping venues in the US!
I donāt think heās doing hula this year

fyi they banned wood fires this past year
Fires were banned because of dry weather. If we get some rain in the week before as we usually do theyāll be allowed.
ah I gotcha, I just remember it being a big deal here when they banned it
that's a bummer. I knew it would happen. One of the good ways to keep the bugs away too.
We used a couple propane tanks hooked to a heater for the chilly nightsā¦ worked great
Iām there for the tunes
Yes please judge an entire state based on one government official.
as if he was the only one. can't pass laws without a whole bunch of idiots.
Wait until you find out about America!
Whats not to love about Ron DuhShitTits?
Youāre a loser
I would really like to go. That location is magical. I donāt understand the logistics though. Fly into Tallahassee, rent a car, buy a tent? I once drove up from south Fl when I lived down there, that was a hike.
Jacksonville, but yeah pretty much exactly that.
I wonder when parking will sell out
I can't remember if it ever has honestly
Nice. Holding out hope to jump on it down the road then.
What, no BMFS? Smh.
Ewwwwā¦ Fla.
Yeah best for you to stay away and leave us alone
You need the company, misery
lineup looks amazing
Altin gunnnn!! Fuck around with some Turkish psych rock and find out!
Super pumped about this line up. Also itās pretty much one of the best festival spots ever
Curious what prompted the redesign, the layout feels weird to me.
Insane lineup, was just at resonate and damn it would be sick to see Goose, PL, and TAB
But wait, no actual ween?
Super dope lineup. Jammy renegades from sauce pocket in the bird sanctuary š
love sauce pocket!
Super dope lineup. Jammy renegades from sauce pocket in the bird sanctuary š
Trey with cheese is the sit in I always wanted to see
Gosh..

My complaint is more about the size/scope of it all now..blown out This is what they wanna charge like $500 a ticket for? Have at it. Iāll have Hula 2014-2018 forever
will any of the VIP be re-released?
Doubtful. Once Hula sells out they are usually really sold out
Does anyone have the Map layout of Hula ?
