Six of the eleven names at Transmission on November 28 put records out on Black Hole Recordings
Six of the eleven names at Transmission in Arnhem. Eleven at Dreamstate SoCal a week before. 24 roster bookings across six festivals in the next six weeks.
Saturday, November 28, Transmission in Arnhem. We hold eleven names for the lineup so far, and six of them put records out on Black Hole Recordings.
That's Daxson, Driftmoon, Asteroid, Markus Schulz, Ferry Corsten and XiJaro & Pitch. More than half the night, from one label's catalog.
And if Arnhem's a long way off, the bigger number is in California. Eight days earlier, Dreamstate SoCal in Long Beach has eleven of them.
Who's on it
Roster here means whose records come out on the label, by release credits. Not who's signed, not who's managed. The app counts 31 names, and 27 of them have a festival ahead.
The biggest credit counts are Giuseppe Ottaviani with 58 releases there, Driftmoon with 32, Cosmic Gate with 30 and Solarstone with 22. Then Sean Tyas at 21 and BT at 15.
Two of the roster are on our season board. Ferry Corsten is 19th, with seven bills this season, and three of them are in the next six weeks. Tiësto is 36th, with 13 credits on the label, the latest from 2018.
Look at where they're playing and you already know the sound: A State of Trance, Dreamstate, Transmission. Press play below.
