Ultra Music Festival’s new venue transportation debacles and Colonel Sander’s moment in the spotlight may be a thing of the past (that we are arguably still talking about), but the stunning sets and surprise moments that happened last weekend will live on through their melodic beats.
Whether you were part of the festival live in Miami or experienced the livestream from the comfort of your home, this year’s Ultra still managed to present an incredibly high level of epic performances, as per the usual.
From the heavy hitters to rising stars, Ultra brought out the best in the industry. With so much going on throughout the weekend, it was absolutely impossible to get the opportunity to hear all the artists performances, collabs, and b2b sets that didn’t fail to disappoint.
Surprisingly, by taking peek back at Ultra’s 2019 lineup, you’ll find plenty of acts that showed that Miami’s premier music festival isn’t just serving up as mainstream EDM for the masses. A larger variety of genres were present this year including: Trance, house, techno, experimental bass, and electro-rock that were all represented respectively.
Here are 10 sets that really stood out amongst the crowd for their originality and variety in their own diverse musical genres:
