It's more than just a genre

This is such a lovely film. It really captures the essence of why Insomniac does this, how come they do it every year and that this is more than just a music genre. It's more of a community and Insomniac chose to do this for the community and be the expert 'experience creators' that they are. I been going to EDC Las Vegas since 2013 and every year is magical in a different way. This is definitely one of the must-see films that a fan and non-fan should watch to see what it's all about

Ultimately Disappointing

While this film does a decent job of explaining why people feel drawn to EDM and EDC in particular, it is ultimately a bust. It glaringly ignores the impact and influence of the LGBTQ community (which had a major role in the birth of EDM and dance culture) and it conveniently downplays the impact of drugs and how they are woven into the fabric of the EDM experience. By doing so, the movie comes off as a watered down informercial intended to bring in more revenue for the promoters, instead of an honest representation of this rich and vibrant culture. What a waste of a great idea.

More of an Infomercial than a documentary

Right off the bat you see that the "documentary" is made by Insomniac, the same people who host EDC. It follows a few groups of concert goers to the Electric Daisy Carnival in 2013. It starts off entertaining and visually spectacular, but soon digresses into what seems like a promo piece. Approximately 350,000 people show up to this event and it's pretty much just about the positives about the event (which I am sure it mostly is).

Other than a little puff piece about EMTs helping people in need, there is no coverage of the economics, sanitation effort, parking, traffic, food, actual security, event erection, and teardown, local public opinion, actual injuries, drug/alcohol overdoses, legal hurdles, logistical challenges, etc.

Where they lose me is when the Texas girl gets picked out of the crowd of vast people to get up on stage with her beloved DJs Above and Beyond, and gets to participate in some token gesture of pushing a button starting the music up again. This was clearly scripted.

Overall it's an enjoyable watch, but fairly repetitive. Watch the 20 minute 2012 Tomorrowland official video on youtube (which is fun),if you want that video to last for 85mins, then this is the flick for you.
