The best of the weekend
MYTH Electronic Music Fest
MYTH Electronic Music Festival
Expo Garden Park, Saturday 14 May-Sunday 15 May, 340RMB a day
This new electronic music festival is from Modern Sky, the organisers behind Strawberry Festival. The fest will host a pair of international headliners: American producer, Mad Decent boss and one half of Major Lazer Diplo, who won a Grammy for his work on Justin Bieber's 'Where are Ü now'; and Canadian duo DVBBS.
Knife Party and DVBBS headline day one of MYTH, with much of the rest of the bill filled out with locally-based DJs such as Misloop and Max Shen. The second day will see Diplo playing - he's on at 8.30pm. Before that, there's vowelophobes KSHMR and Danny Avila, plus - perhaps most interestingly - sex-obsessed electro-funkateer Jimmy Edgar.
