[highlight]Brillz[/highlight]
Formerly the founding member of dance crew ‘Liquid Pop Collective’, up-and-coming trap stud Brillz is quickly getting the dance music world’s attention. His history with the dance music culture shows in his performances and productions. Brillz burst onto the broader dance music scene with his remix of Kill the Noise’s Roots, and hasn’t slowed down since. One of the top trap acts in dance music now and for the foreseeable future, Brillz is definitely worth a look at Paradiso 2014.

[highlight]Lindsay Lowend[/highlight]
One of the youngest artists at Paradiso this summer, 20-year-old Lindsay Lowend has a big 2014 ahead of him. After a successful 2013 which including massive growths in notoriety and industry support, Lowend is turning that support into shows. Playing all over North America, including shows at Electric Forest, Lollapalooza, and Shambhala Music Festival later this year, Lowend is an infusion of youth into a scene that’s begging for new talent.

[highlight]Milo & Otis[/highlight]
Versatile duo Milo & Otis, made up of DJ NYMZ and Killagraham, are currently on tour with Skrillex’s ‘The Mothership‘ tour through North America. Milo & Otis have been one of the leading acts in trap since they began releasing tunes a couple years ago and is a great addition to any summer festival lineup. They have released a few new tracks recently(#FESTMUNCH, Send It Up, and Out The Speakers), all of which will only sound that much better set to the backdrop of the greatest festival venue in the United States.
