RB Weekend Preview: Wolfgang Gartner, 12th Planet
3/28: Wolfgang Gartner @ El Hefe Tempe
36-year-old Wolfgang Gartner has been manufacturing state-of-the-art translucent electro-house for over a decade. He’s collaborated with Deadmau5 on numerous occasions and even worked with Skrillex on “The Devils Den” off of his highly-praised Bangarang EP. Wolfgang Gartner can’t be classified by any single genre, instead, he covers all the bases, able to transition the wobbliest bass drop into a light, colorful progressive house melody. The California based artist just dropped his latest banger “Ectoplasm” and this track takes a ride on the spooky side of dance music. Make sure you’re there Thursday when he plays it out!

3/30: 12th Planet @ The Pressroom
John Dadzie, professionally known as 12th Planet, is known as one of the pioneers of dubstep in the U.S. As bass music began to rise in popularity, he helped navigate its uncharted territories with singles like his breakout “68” and collaborations with other ambassadors of the genre, such as Skrillex and Kill the Noise. Over time, 12th Planet became a household name in the global dance music circuit, with releases on Mad Decent, Monstercat and OWSLA, as well as by supporting artists like Skrillex on tour and making stops at major festivals like Coachella, EDC, and Ultra, along the way.
