Tonight, July 22nd, the Pretty Lights Family will be presenting the first ever Vibe Fest 2013. The first ever of it’s kind, the virtual festival will take place in a plug.dj room curated by the Pretty Lights Family. If your unfamiliar with plug.dj, it is a website which allows visitors to DJ while others in the room listen, very much similar to turntable.fm. The event is welcome to all, PLF members or not.
“We’ve gotten the PLF plug.DJ room poppin’ a couple times in the past. Despite being completely spontaneous and spur of the moment, it has provided the artists (Artifakts, Vibe Street, B!unt Force) with great exposure and spiced up the nights of music fans who would otherwise just be sitting at home listening to iTunes or Pandora. I believe its a great way for artists to interact with fans in a very casual manner and create a more personal relationship while also spreading the music they pour so much effort into. All of the artists involved with this event were nice enough to respond positively to a new kind of idea like this, and we feel like a full day of promotion is the perfect amount of time to get people aware and excited but not give them a chance to forget about it. Also, we know that this is more exciting than anything else people have going on on a monday night, and if people respond well we hope to do it again – bigger and better – in the future!” – Ben Davis aka Vibe Street on the creation of Vibe Fest 2013
The event begins tonight at 5:00 PM and will last until about 5:00 AM Tuesday morning. Featuring artists such as Krooked Drivers, Archnemesis, Robotic Pirate Monkey, and Artifakts, this is an incredible opportunity to hear some great music from upcoming artists for free and at your own convenience. Fans of Pretty Lights will undoubtably enjoy the similar styles of many of these artists.
