The holiday season is upon us, and we only have a few days before Christmas. One of the best things you can get a raver during this season is a pair of NYE tickets. What better way to spend your holiday break than to see Armin Van Buuren, Borgore, Galantis, Snails, and What So Not at Decadence Arizona?
Relentless Beats is teaming up with Global Dance to bring you the best NYE festival in the southwest, Decadence Arizona. Respect My Region is here to give you an in depth look at our 5 favorite artists to check out at the festival.
Order tickets to Decadence here!

Coming off of a hot streak with their new album “The Aviary”, these two birds of prey will make a killing of the dancefloor, per the usual. You’ll see them on the drums as well as the turntables if you end up seeing them, and believe me, you don’t want to miss them. They’ve collaborated with very few artists, but when they do, it’s insane. On their last album, they collaborated with Rozes, and Poo Bear (who just put a song out with Skrillex).

One of the greatest sets I saw at Paradiso in 2016 was Jauz and one of the greatest sets I saw at Paradiso 2017 was Zeds Dead. These two will be performing an exclusive B2B at Decadence. One of the greatest sound designers I enjoy, Jauz, teamed up with Zeds Dead, one of the greatest live performers ever. I’m excited to see how this one turns out.

Borgore, where do I even start. It’s not as bad as Getter, but I feel like he is a meme irl. The formula for him is quite simple. Butts, bass, and booze. In fact, I think he is the Kingpin of Booty in the electronic music community. The reason why I put Borgore on the list is because he not only helped put Getter on the map, but the last two years of his music has been phenominal. The best song to come out from him in the last 3 years has got to be Magic Trick with Juicy J. Just raw, potent, and heavy bass. Don’t miss out on Borgore, the “Sugar Daddy” of electronic music.

Love trance? This is the set for you at Decadence. On the fence about Trance? This set will change your mind. Hate trance? Give this set a shot, you won’t be disappointed. After what I’ve seen online and what I’ve heard from those that have seen him live, he seriously isn’t one to be missed. Don’t forget to bring tissues because he definitely will be bringing in the feels.

Yep, you read that correctly. Hopefully you survive NYE before you vomit, I mean, rage your guts out. This guy puts on a show. His mixing is on point but what really sets him apart is the insane sound design he is known to have. Vomitstep is his forte and there are no plans on holding back from releasing the nastiest beats ever imaginable.
Be sure to lock in your tickets because they’re gonna go. You can find out more info on tickets and all other event information here.
