Somerset, Wisconsin may only be a small town of 2,500, but the EDM and Hip-Hop Music Festival that is thrown each year has recorded a typical attendance of 15,000 music fans per day! The three day music festival known as Summer Set will be this Friday - Sunday, creating hype around the midwest. The event has brought in about 60 artists for the weekend, creating constant buzz for one of the best Summer Set lineups to date. Below is the schedule for each stage, featuring headliners Kaskade, Big Gigantic, Flux Pavilion, Bassnectar among others! While the event is filled with mostly EDM artists, there are also some strong hip-hop acts including Schoolboy Q, Isaiah Rashad, and Wu-Tang! Chance The Rapper was supposed to perform on Sunday but recently cancelled the rest of his summer tour, however rumors have surfaced that Tyler The Creator will be taking his place. Our TapSongz Team wanted to point out 5 artists that you need to see at Summer Set!
1. chromeo
Chromeo is an outstanding act live as our TapSongz Team had the privilege of seeing the Canadian Electro-Funk Duo perform at Lollapalooza just two weeks ago! The duo released a new album "White Women" back in May and their performance at Summer Set should be another entertaining act! Give one of their hottest tracks "Jealous (I Ain't With It)" a listen off of their new album below!
2. The chainsmokers
The Chainsmokers are one of the hottest duos in the EDM industry! After spending months of creating excellent remixes, the duo went on to create some original music which has been climbing the charts like no other. Their hit single "Selfie" exploded and they recently just came out with a brand new song "Kanye", which can be found below! This is a performance you simply can't miss!
3. autograf
Future House Trio Autograf continues to impress EDM fans with their latest releases! Our TapSongz Team came across one of their Pharrell Remixes and instantly fell in love with their unique sound. The trio from Chicago focuses on Future House, a peaceful but energizing style that is beginning to take off within the EDM industry. Their concert will be sure to consist of a variety of music so we encourage you to make your way over to The Big Top stage on Saturday afternoon!
4. aer
Aer's self-titled album came out at the beginning of the year and featured some fresh tracks including "Spades, Clubs, and Diamonds", "Says She Loves Me", and "Pretty Lady (Around Me)". The Rap-Rock duo has always had a reputation for throwing on chill shows with positive vibes and relaxing music. We think Aer would be a great way to start off your rally Sunday afternoon at The Main Stage!
5. rl grime
Despite already being a well-known name, RL Grime had to make the list of 5 Artists You Need to See At Summer Set! The popular producer out of California has done remixes for Benny Benassi, Chief Keef, Jamie Lidell, and Shlohmo among others. There is no doubt that Friday's performance at the Grove Stage will be bumping so we figured the popular DJ deserved a spot on the list to help kick off the camping weekend!
