    Insomniac has announced dates for Dreamstate SoCal 2021, which is scheduled to take place on Friday, Nov. 19, and Saturday, Nov. 20, 2021, at NOS Events Center in Southern California.

    The highly-anticipated event promises for next year’s edition to be bigger than ever before due to the cancellation of its 2020 festival because of COVID-19 concerns.  

    Dreamstate, which is known to transport fans to a “higher state of consciousness” with ethereal trance beats from some of the biggest names in the genre, still has yet to reveal next year’s lineup.  However, based on its 2019 edition, fans can expect some of the industry’s biggest heavyweights.  Just some of the notable artists who performed in 2019 include Aly & Fila, Ferry Corsten, Gareth Emery, Above & Beyond, Andrew Bayer B2B Ilan Bluestone, Gabriel & Dresden, and VINI VICI & Friends.

    The electronic dance music duo intends to take premium live streaming to new heights with these performances.  The duo will be implementing within their set visuals and technology created by Emmy-nominated artists in addition to numerous ways fans can get involved at home.  

    The duo will kick-off the live streaming extravaganza with a set Oct. 3 titled “For Your Mind,” which will be a two-hour modern performance with retina enhancing visuals.  There will be a plethora of new and exclusive Cosmic Gate composed music to accompany the graphics.  Music featured within the set will include their collaboration with Andrew Bayer on, “The Launch” as well as remixes of Andrew Rayel’s new single, “Everything Everything.” Also included will be the recent releases, “Universal Love” and “Your Mind.”

    Their second live stream on Saturday, Oct. 17 appropriately titled, “The Classics” will presumably feature the duo’s trance induced classics throughout the performance; however, more details regarding this stream are still yet to be announced.

    For a sneak peek at what is to come in the virtual event, the two have released a teaser video which can be seen below.

    These performances will mark their first time reuniting after six months, which makes the anticipation of the events even more heightened.

    “naturally we hold out hope that the current situation doesn’t rule out every event for the rest of 2020. Like many though, we don’t like the way it’s looking. “We live to play for our fans and if we have to be creative to do that, that’s what we’re gonna do. So we’re doing two unique events that’ll allow us all to club ‘apart-but-together’ in the absolute mask-free safety, and with the added thrill that we’re going to be able to take you hundreds of ‘places’ we otherwise couldn’t! The Temple House is a place where – digitally – our wildest ‘wanna-play-there’ dreams come true. So for two Saturdays in early autumn, push back your couch, zoom up the brightness (& volume!), and join us for some shows that’ll bring us together for an experience we’ll never forget!”
