  • Sónar '15: Skrillex, FKA twigs, Flying Lotus, Die Antwoord Added

    Sónar Festival just got a lot bigger with a second batch of artists that have been added to its 2015 lineup.

Sticking to the mission of keeping away from your typical commercial acts, Sónar added names like Jamie xx, Maya Jane Coles, Die Antwoord, Flying Lotus and FKA twigs to the roster. Not afraid to push boundaries, Sónar has tabbed Skrillex as one of its Phase 2 headliners, which caused quite a stir the first time around, but now not many will raise a fuss this time because hating on Skrillex has largely gone out of style.
