To no one’s surprise, 2023 is going by in a blink of an eye, and there is nothing we can do but sit back and try and enjoy it while we can. This is why, with only four months to go until the end of the year, FNGRS CRRSD has announced the lineup for PROPER NYE/NYD event to try and give us all something special to look forward to.
This announcement comes on the heels of a successful debut sell-out last year, and a sold-out fall edition of CRSSD festival this September. Returning to PetCo Park in San Diego, CA, PROPER has swiftly become a destination festival in Southern California.
While the final lineup will host over 50 unique and talented artists, phase one definitely sets things off on the right foot. Leading the charge is Black Book Records‘ maestro, Chris Lake, and deadmau5‘s transformative alter-ego, TESTPILOT. But that’s just the beginning – brace yourself for an incredible lineup featuring Grammy-nominated electronic sorcerer ZHU, the immersive realm of Higher Ground, Mad Decent’s genre-bending powerhouse Diplo, UK’s triple-platinum sensation CamelPhat, and Germany’s enigmatic sonic enchanter Claptone.
The sonic journey continues with sensational acts like North London’s chart-topping wizards Gorgon City, Aussie favorite Sonny Fodera, beat-making icon Chris Lorenzo, hit-maker Duke Dumont, and the cherished UK duo Eli & Fur.
For dedicated house music aficionados, the PROPER lineup is a treasure trove of musical delights. Groove with Walker & Royce, journey to Sydney’s dance paradise with platinum sensation Hayden James, immerse in Layla Benitez‘s global allure, and explore Cloonee‘s sonic odyssey.
But the execution of pure talent doesn’t end there! Feel the four-to-the-floor rhythms of Latin House star HUGEL, embrace tech house prowess with Biscits and Kyle Watson, savor Franky Wah‘s melodic artistry, and rise with Chicago’s underground star Azzecca.
PROPER’s techno lineup boasts a constellation of stars, including the Berlin production duo Pan-Pot, German standout Chris Avantgarde from Afterlife, the rising rave sensation Rebūke, and the emerging maestro of melodic techno, Massano.
PROPER unfolds on the expansive grounds of Petco Park, with dynamic stage setups peppered across the sprawling locale. As a true emblem of Southern California, Petco Park treats electronic music aficionados to panoramic vistas of downtown San Diego, nestled at the core of the city’s pulse. This iconic venue sets the perfect stage for a New Year’s Eve celebration resonating with the beats of both current and forthcoming luminaries of the genre.
