When AC Entertainment split from MoogFest last year to form two separate events, questions arose about which direction the festivals would head in the future. While MoogFest is now slated to reappear in 2014, the Mountain Oasis Electronic Music Summit which takes place Oct. 25-27, 2013 in Asheville has announced its initial lineup. The festival remains electronically focused, but it has also broadened its soundscape a bit.
50 to 60 artists are scheduled to perform, including:
Nine Inch Nails
Neutral Milk Hotel (pictured above)
Bassnectar
Pretty Lights
How to Destroy Angels
Gary Numan
Animal Collective
Daniel Johnston
Half Japanese
Godspeed You! Black Emperor
Tricky
Zola Jesus
JG Thirwell
Jessie Ware
The Bug
Silver Apples
Disclosure
Rustie
Chromatics
Robert DeLong
Jacques Greene
Bondax
