So we here at ChinaShop don’t know what your plans are for this Labor Day weekend but if you don’t have any or even if you do, cancel them quick and head out to the Electric Zoo, New York’s electronic music festival out on Randall’s Island. There will be tons of music, interactive arts displays and plenty of eats to keep your dancin’ pants on all day.
With The Chemical Brothers headlining after a slew of favorites including Major Lazer, Diplo, and Armin Van Buuren (and Flying Lotus… and Boize Noize… I could go on and on) the lineup is stellar even if you’re not an electronic music aficionado.
If that’s not enough to have you on the first train to Harlem, the festival will sport an impressive host of eateries including my favorite ice cream truck, the Van Leeuwen (ginger ice cream? YES).
I’ll be kickin’ it at the Red Bull Music Academy Riverside Stage all day, so come say hey and get down with Bassnectar, A-Trak, Aeroplane, Diplo, DJ Mendhi, JDH & Dave P, Jon Hopkins, Savoy, the Glitch Mob and XXXChange. Just put on something neon, grab a glow light, and shut up and dance already.
