The 10th anniversary of downtown Las Vegas’s staple festival, Life is Beautiful, is almost upon us.

Taking place September 22-24 smack dab in the middle of DTLV, Life is Beautiful is a center of art, local experiences, and of course top-notch music.

And with this multi-genre lineup stacked with nonstop DJs, bands, and singers, we here, as the EDM experts at EDM Maniac, have five performances you can’t miss at Life is Beautiful 2023:

Life is Beautiful 2023 1 1

1. Roosevelt

For fans of SG Lewis, Purple Disco Machine, or Franc Moody‘s funky electronic sound, Roosevelt is a must-see act.

This German producer and DJ may have popped on your radar due to his remixes for CHVRCHES, Flight Facilities, or (one of the top-selling artists in the world) Taylor Swift, but he is now making a name for himself with a new album.

The album, entitled Embrace, was written, recorded, and produced entirely by Roosevelt as he traveled around the world working in improvised studios in order to spark his creativity.

Embrace is his most personal LP yet, inspired by turning 30 and realizing the difference in his lifestyle between childhood friends with “real jobs” and his life touring as well as leaning into an indie/funk electronic sound with elements of 80s disco, Joni Mitchell, and Jackson Browne.

This performance is part of Roosevelt’s biggest tour yet and promises to bring his sound to life in a whole new way.

2. Flume

Also celebrating a ten-year milestone is the chart-topping headliner, Flume.

It’s hard to believe it’s already been ten years since Flume first came on the scene with his self-titled album and game-changing tracks like “Drop The Game,” “Holding On,” and his viral remix of “Tennis Court,” only just made available on Spotify.

Fans can expect plenty of 2013 nostalgia from his latest album of unreleased tracks, Things Don’t Always Go The Way You Plan, as well as the dreamy, otherworldly modern stylings of 2022’s Palaces. 

No matter which style you prefer, expect something big for the joint tenth-anniversary set.

3. BLOND:ISH x Blue Man Group

House icon and sustainability advocate BLOND:ISH joins forces with the colorful comedy team Blue Man Group for a performance unlike anything you’ll see on another festival stage.

BLOND:ISH is the founder of the nonprofit Bye Bye Plastic as well as the label boss behind Abracadabra. She’s well known for her high-energy sound and variety of collaborations with hit-makers like Francis Mercier, Diplo, and Madonna.

Blue Man Group is a Las Vegas icon recognized by their blue faces and wacky antics often with a musical element that results in an off-the-charts explosion of color, light, and production.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime collaboration that simply screams “Las Vegas.”

4. TSHA

London-based artist TSHA is an addictive blend of progressive house, Afro-house, rave, and dance-pop pushing the boundaries of electronic music.

Inspired by deeper creatives like Floating Points, Bonobo, and Jon Hopkins, she’s recently received notice due to her work with highly sought-after vocalists like Ellie Goulding and Aluna.

Life is Beautiful closes out her 2023 summer tour that traveled all across the world from Parklife Festival in Manchester to Ibiza, Defected Croatia, and more.

5. salute

salute’s sound can be described as bright, euphoric, and emotional, but the longstanding producer, remixer, and creative has a variety of influences and talents.

Born and raised in Vienna, Austria, salute began producing at the early age of 13 when he first became obsessed with British dance music including grime, garage, and drum & bass.

His sound has evolved as he’s grown up in the music scene from lighter, down-tempo beats to more dance-centric and sparkling tracks like the viral “Peach” with Sammy Virji,  “Joy,” and “Therapy.”

But he may be best known for his ability to transform popular tracks in his remixes for industry legends like Todd Edwards, DJ Seinfeld, Kehlani, SG Lewis, Sam Smith, The Prototypes, and Sub Focus.

Study Says Microdosing Psychedelics Helps with ADHD

Screen Shot 2023 11 28 at 7.41.41 AM 1024x383 1

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that affects both children and adults. It is characterized by symptoms such as inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity, which can significantly impact daily functioning and quality of life. While there are various treatment options available, including medication and therapy, researchers are constantly exploring new avenues to improve the lives of individuals with ADHD. Recently, a groundbreaking study conducted by the Department of Neuropsychology and Psychopharmacology at Maastricht University in the Netherlands has shed light on the potential benefits of microdosing psychedelics for people with ADHD.

The study aimed to investigate the effects of microdosing non-hallucinogenic psychedelics on mindfulness and personality traits in individuals with ADHD. Over the course of four weeks, nearly 250 participants were asked to repeatedly take small amounts of these substances, while their mindfulness and personality traits were measured. The results of the study were both intriguing and promising.

One of the key findings of the study was that over 80% of the participants reported practicing mindfulness. This suggests a potential connection between microdosing psychedelics and the cultivation of mindfulness in individuals with ADHD. Mindfulness is the practice of being fully present and engaged in the present moment, without judgment. It has been shown to have numerous benefits for mental health, including reducing stress and anxiety, improving focus and attention, and enhancing overall well-being.

The results of the study indicated that trait mindfulness, particularly the aspects of description and non-reactivity, were significantly increased in individuals who had been microdosing psychedelics. This suggests that microdosing may have the potential to enhance mindfulness in individuals with ADHD, which could have a positive impact on their symptoms and overall functioning.

It is important to note that the study focused specifically on non-hallucinogenic psychedelics, which means that participants did not experience any psychedelic effects or hallucinations. Instead, they took small amounts of these substances that were below the threshold for producing any perceptible changes in consciousness. This approach was chosen to minimize potential risks and ensure the safety of the participants.

The Role of Microdosing in ADHD Treatment

The findings of this study have significant implications for the treatment of ADHD. Currently, the most common treatment options for ADHD include medication, such as stimulants or non-stimulants, and behavioral therapy. While these treatments can be effective for many individuals, they are not without their limitations. Some individuals may experience side effects from medication, or find that their symptoms are not adequately controlled. In addition, therapy may not be accessible or affordable for everyone.

Microdosing psychedelics could potentially offer a new and alternative treatment option for individuals with ADHD. By enhancing mindfulness and improving attention and focus, microdosing may help individuals better manage their symptoms and improve their overall well-being. It is worth noting that microdosing should always be approached with caution and under the guidance of a healthcare professional, as it is still a relatively new and understudied area.

Further research is needed to fully understand the potential benefits and risks of microdosing psychedelics for ADHD. However, this study provides a solid foundation for future investigations and highlights the importance of exploring innovative approaches to ADHD treatment.

Conclusion

The recent study conducted by the Department of Neuropsychology and Psychopharmacology at Maastricht University has provided valuable insights into the potential benefits of microdosing psychedelics for individuals with ADHD. The findings suggest that microdosing may enhance mindfulness and improve traits associated with ADHD, offering a new and alternative treatment option for those living with the condition.

As with any new treatment approach, it is important to approach microdosing psychedelics with caution and under the guidance of a healthcare professional. Safety and responsible use should always be the top priority. With continued research and open-mindedness, the potential benefits of microdosing psychedelics for ADHD may become clearer, offering new possibilities for individuals seeking relief from the challenges associated with this condition.

Creamfields To Build Largest Indoor Stage Ever For 2024

1f449

Creamfields is going big for 2024, really big. The UK Music Festival took to Instagram to announce an incredible new stage for 2024. The APEX Stage will be the largest indoor festival superstructure ever.

Called ‘APEX’, it will have a capacity of 30,000. The stage will be open Friday-Sunday of the festival with an extended 4 am close time on Saturday. This is the latest end time of the festival to date.

Previous mainstages of Creamfields always featured a giant LED screen and plenty of production around it. However, given the unpredictable weather in England, this structure will shield festival-goers from the elements.

The pictures of the proposed stage look stunning. Creamfields will take place from August 22nd – 25th at Daresbury, Cheshire. It has a daily attendance of 70,000 over the 4 days. There are limited tickets available here.

Tomorrowland Winter Confirms Full 2024 Lineup With Vintage Culture, Nina Kraviz, + More

Just because it’s getting colder outside doesn’t mean excitement for festivals has to slow down. Tomorrowland Winter has confirmed the full lineup for its 2024 return to the French Alps.

From March 16-23, 2024, over 150 artists spanning the entire electronic spectrum will ascend to the Alpe d’Huez ski resort for a week of dancing on the highest peaks surrounded by panoramic, snow-capped views.

New additions include underground titans like ANNA, Yulia Niko, Mind Against, and Sama’ Abdulhadi, alongside champions of bigger sounds like Alesso, Laidback Luke, Vini Vici, and Blasterjaxx.

A cornerstone of the Tomorrowland Winter experience is dancing in complete cold weather gear, which attendees will be able to do on the stage aptly titled Top Of The Mountain (which sits at 3,300 meters above sea level). This comes in between hitting the slopes and even having the chance to go dog sledding or paragliding over the icy peaks.

However, throughout the week, attendees will also be able to dance indoors as the festival takes over the entire Alpe d’Huez resort. Many of the stages are covered and heated, and guests can enjoy all the other amenities the resort offers like fine dining and spa experiences.

Check out the full lineup for Tomorrowland Winter 2024 below. Click here to purchase tickets.
