Well well Ultra finally announces what we can expect for 2009. I have to say I am pretty surprised with the selections thus far. Is Ultra moving from a pure EDM festival to something a bit more diverse? Here's a snippet from Crossfade. For more deetz hit the Crossfade link below.
Cut Copy and Crystal Castles! The last time Crystal Castles were here was WMC 2007, before they really blew up, and as for Cut Copy.... If they've played here at all in the last couple of years, I don't remember -- but their live show is a lot of fun, no matter how many times you've heard their indie-club hits.
Also returning to Miami, but making an Ultra debut, is Simian Mobile Disco, who totally destroyed the eyes, eardrums, and minds of the crowd who caught them on the last Saturday of WMC at Studio A this past spring.
Looks like the Ultra people are starting to finally listen to the cries of those who want an assortment of talent as opposed to strictly EDM.
