Head Counselor Claude VonStroke unveiled the roster of musical talent coming to dazzle campers during this summer's Dirtybird Campout, in addition to announcing the festival's move to a new location since its split with Do LaB.

Split between two stages, music will range from house to techno, hip-hop to bass, DJs and live acts. VonStroke's cohorts this year include Frankfurt Techno icon Roman Flügel, a special early arrival party with Hot Creations wunderkind Patrick Topping, the inimitable Chicago house boss Green Velvet, the electronic mastery of Gorgon City, Grammy award-winning super-producer Mark Ronson, scene-leading producer Chris Lake, and hip-hop’s secret weapon Salva.

The bill continues with Dirtybird favorites like the unstoppable FISHER, the Self Help anthems of Walker & Royce, festival stars Mikey Lion and PETS’ own Catz n Dogz, and global house frontrunner Kevin Knapp. The deep and dark sounds of the Bass Lodge continue this year with blowout performances from beatsmith EPROM, alien abductee Barclay Crenshaw, DnB kings Dub Phizix & Strategy, Bristol badman DJ Krust, East Coast bass selector Jubilee, and a classic hip-hop showdown between Big Daddy Kane & Slick Rick the Ruler.
