Miss the glory days of EDM in the Philippines? Project Horizon is bringing electronic music festivals back to the archipelago, starting with a one-day mini event in BGC on May 10, 2024 featuring two rising international DJs – Retrovision of France and Jeonghyeon of Korea.
Project Horizon marks the first time a standalone international EDM festival has happened in the Metro in close to two years, with a lineup consisting of local stars and global upcomers alike such as:
Retrovision (France) - Founder of the More Bass, More Good record label and internationally renowned producer/DJ, having played at Tomorrowland Belgium and collaborated with the likes of Jonas Blue and Don Diablo.
Jeonghyeon (South Korea) - Korea’s #1 rising EDM producer/DJ, best known for his viral Bass House/Future Bounce remixes of popular songs like One Direction’s One Thing and Taylor Swift’s Anti-Hero.
Ron Poe (Philippines) - One of the most well-known DJs in the Philippines, having represented the country in clubs and festivals across Asia.
Siangyoo (Philippines) - The TikTok master; known worldwide for his ability to mash up songs across all genres.
Eko (Singapore) - Singapore’s Speed House prince; previously played at It’s the Ship and Ultra Singapore.
Started by a group of Gen Z friends who grew up listening to electronic music and going to raves, Project Horizon aims to be a grassroots movement focused on reviving the Philippine EDM community through quarterly events that highlight both local and international acts. The organization’s eventual goal is to run a mega-event similar to Ultra Music Festival and Electric Daisy Carnival in the Philippines.
“EDM and raves were a big part of our lives as teenagers and young adults, and we thought it’d suck if the next generation wouldn’t be able to experience it – so we decided to bring it back ourselves,” says Jigo Vilar, head of marketing for Project Horizon. “We hope that this is just the start of something great, and that others follow suit and help grow the community. Because EDM is just that beautiful.”
Project Horizon: Episode 1 happens on May 10, 2024 at McKinley Whisky Park in Bonifacio Global City, Philippines. Tickets are available on projecthorizon.helixpay.ph starting at PHP1,500 with two free cocktails, with VIP tables at PHP15,000.
