Big news, beat freaks.
After months of teases, hype, and promises that it "will be bigger than last year," there's finally been a major development in the ongoing saga of Ultra Music Festival's 2012 lineup.
Of course, we here at Crossfade have spent the last few weeks scouring the web for leaks, rumors, and accidental announcements, managing to confirm Ultra appearances by New Order as well as Armin Van Buuren, Knife Party and Chase & Status, and Carl Cox and Sven Vath.
But just now, Ultra announced its official Phase 1 lineup, a sprawling 92-act roster that ranges from massive dance superstars Avicii, Tiësto, David Guetta, Kaskade, and Fedde Le Grand to electronic music legends Kraftwerk, New Order, and Fatboy Slim to dubsteppers Skrillex, Borgore, and 12th Planet -- not to mention indie crossover types like M83, Neon Indian, and Little Dragon.
Oh, and we were right about Justice's trip to Bayfront too. See the cut for Ultra Music Festival 2012's full Phase 1 lineup.
