The NOS Event Center is firing on all cylinders come the end of 2019, and nestled between two powerhouse festivals sits Audiotistic SoCal, an event that may not be on your radar but most certainly should be. Boasting a bonkers lineup spread across two stages, the transient event sets up shop in San Bernardino this year on Saturday, December 28.
The Stages
Frequency 1.1
Attendees should prepare their bass faces for what is going to be a non-stop downpour of lung-rattling sets. The Frequency 1.1 lineup features some of the most innovative and established names in the game, from the legendary Flosstradamus to boundary-pushing Getter. Most likely by design, many of the artists playing this stage—either B2B or singularly—have collaborated at some point, so the flow and general vibe of the stage is sure to be consistent. Obviously, Tchami and Malaa have perfected the B2B formula touring together on the No Redemption tour. In that same vein is Saint Punk. His hit “Menace” released on Confession will absolutely send the NOS crowd into a frenzy. Anyone that has watched a Valentino Khan set where 4B is in the vicinity knows what they are in for – a wild, nonstop ride from start to finish. A fan favorite we’ve become accustomed to seeing in B2B’s is rolling solo at this event as NGHTMRE brings his hard-hitting arsenal of tracks to the masses. Rounding out the Frequency 1.1 stage is the menacing beats of Blanke B2B Lick and the raw energy of Whipped Cream.
Frequency 2.2
AC Slater and his Night Bass crew take the reins at Audiotistic’s second stage. The music label has been a veritable hit factory for quite some time now with its reliable output of addictive basslines. Celebrating 5 years, AC and the crew just released their first vinyl, Night Bass 100, featuring many artists who have helped Night Bass become what it is today. Their stage at Audiotistic is composed of some of the most talented DJs in the game. The track selection prowess of Anna Lunoe paired with Wax Motif’s addictive sound is something everyone should be very much here for. Both artists have absolute bangers of their own so the foundation of this set’s tracklist is strong. G-house aficionado Bijou takes the stage armed with a few new tracks for the crowd and OG Flava D brings her eclectic sound where you may hear everything from grime to garage. Jack Beats alone is a welcome booking that never disappoints, but he’s bringing some friends along with him for the ride; Taiki Nulight, a DJ you have to see to believe, wraps up a lineup that leaves just about zero dance floor downtime.
There are many reasons to make the trip to Audiotistic SoCal this year but sitting and relaxing is not one of them. This lineup is a nonstop dance fest built for the fans that just can’t sit still. Need to dance off some Christmas ham? No New Year’s Eve plans yet? Just can’t wait for the ball drop to drop it down low? The dance floor at NOS Events Center awaits.
