The takeover of <strong>Q-Dance <\/strong>on the <strong>Freedom Stage<\/strong>, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/xceed.me\/en\/artist\/da-tweekaz\">Da Tweekaz<\/a> <\/strong>on the Mainstage, <strong>Footworkxx, <a href=\"https:\/\/xceed.me\/en\/artist\/sefa\">Sefa <\/a><\/strong>in<strong> The Library<\/strong>&#8230; And the list goes on.&nbsp; Although it doesn&#8217;t come as a surprise. Just look at how well the harder styles artists are doing all over the world.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Rebelion &amp; Vertile | Tomorrowland 2023\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gotYBuXkdKs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>What is really noticeable is the rise of drum and bass. Belgium is the country of <strong>Rampage<\/strong>, so it&#8217;s about time to give it the attention it deserves. The most liquid side of the genre has had the strongest impact this year, with the young <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Q3EtCP0eLyA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Andromedik <\/a><\/strong>representing the mainstage and the Rampage brand takover during both weekends at <strong>The Rose Garden<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Everyone will draw their own conclusions from<strong> Tomorrowland 2023<\/strong> based on their own tastes, but we can all agree that the festival is still a real blast. But buckle up, because in 2024 it will be their <strong>20th anniversary <\/strong>and promises to be more explosive than ever. And you, what was your favourite thing about this edition?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It&#8217;s the news of the month before, during and after the show.
