“Dance music has officially taken over America! This is it, dance fans! The moment you’ve all been waiting for!”
Those were the superpsyched words that kicked off Ultra Music Festival‘s “so big, so crazy, so intense” announcement today.
But then … We here at Crossfade (like all y’all epically dedicated beat freaks) were forced to sit through a mesmerizingly glossy quarter-hour Ultra commercial.
You know, before finally finding out the fucking news.
We’re thankful for you. Are you thankful for us?
We feel thankful for our staff and for the privilege of fulfilling our mission to be an unparalleled source of information and insight in Miami. We’re aiming to raise $30,000 by December 31, so we can continue covering what matters most to this community.
Help us continue giving back to Miami.

Eventually, though, after priming us with promises of “global EDM history” (not to mention Final Kid’s beautifully excruciating 14:27 recap vid of last year’s undeniably epic fest), Ultra revealed its surprise …
“Ultra Music Festival will be the first electronic music festival to take place over two big weekends!”
Twice the epicness! Twice the uhntz-uhntz!
But no Daft Punk. Sorry, teresavictoria06.
