Elements Music Festival is just days away, and the bass is calling
Returning to Pocono Raceway in Long Pond, Pennsylvania, from August 7–9, Elements is gearing up for its ninth edition with another weekend filled with electrifying performances from some of the biggest names in electronic dance music.
With one of the most stacked Elements lineups to date, choosing where to be is a battle in itself. From two sets apiece from Mersiv and Daily Bread to a perfectly timed GRiZ: Chasing the Golden Hour, these are ten sets we can’t wait to catch at Elements 2026.
Check out our 10 most anticipated sets at Elements 2026 below.
Mersiv
Thursday | 9:40–10:40 PM | Water Stage
Friday | 6:45–7:45 PM | Fire Stage | Slowdown Set
Mersiv is giving us two doses of bass with a full set Thursday followed by a rare Slowdown Set on Friday. While Thursday will bring the deep wubs and bone-rattling bass that’s defined his career, Friday gives Mersiv a chance to switch things up and get weird with the slower, more experimental side of his sound.
Subtronics
Saturday | 12:45–2:00 AM | Earth Stage
Nothing hits like a Subtronics set in his home state of PA. After his critically acclaimed 2025 album, Fibonacci, the Cyclops Army general has been relentlessly pushing the boundaries of sound, injecting melodic exploration into his signature hard-hitting dubstep and intricate sound design. Backed by his high-energy stage presence and an arsenal of earth-shaking bangers, Subtronics will undoubtedly send the Earth Stage straight into oblivion.
SVDDEN DEATH
Saturday | 11:45 PM–1:00 AM | Water Stage
Few artists feel better suited for a late night in the Elements forest than SVDDEN DEATH. Fueled by sinister melodies, twisted sound design, and some of the most punishing dubstep in the game, SVDDEN DEATH should have the Water Stage descending into madness Saturday night.
CloZee
Saturday | 8:00–9:15 PM | Earth Stage | Sunset Set
CloZee’s intricate blend of world bass, organic textures, and psychedelic production has always felt made for the outdoors. With the French producer taking over the Earth Stage at sunset, her cinematic sound should provide the perfect soundtrack as daylight fades over the Poconos.
ProbCause
Saturday | 5:30–6:30 PM | Earth Stage
Rapper turned DJ ProbCause has spent the past two years shaking up his festival appearances with sets that blend funky dubstep, hip-hop, and bass-fueled grooves. Fresh off three appearances on GRiZ’s Future Funk Vol. 1, expect a mix of funky bass, hip-hop, and plenty of unreleased heat when Prob takes over the Earth Stage.
GRiZ: Chasing the Golden Hour
Sunday | 7:20–8:35 PM | Fire Stage
GRiZ’s Chasing the Golden Hour taps into the soulful side of his catalog through warm saxophone, hip-hop beats, funk, and sun-soaked melodies. With Future Funk Vol. 1 bringing those influences back to the forefront this summer, catching GRiZ during the actual golden hour at Elements could easily become one of those moments people talk about long after the weekend ends.
LSDREAM
Sunday | 11:15 PM–12:30 AM | Earth Stage
LSDREAM’s psychedelic world of wonky bass, spacey soundscapes, and mind-bending visuals feels tailor-made for a late night at Elements. Weaving deep wubs, experimental bass, and melodic, otherworldly moments, LSDREAM will take the Earth Stage on a full-blown journey through the cosmos.
Daily Bread
Sunday | 5:40–6:40 PM | Water Stage | Cloud Conductor
Sunday | 9:50–11:05 PM | Earth Stage
Daily Bread is serving up two completely different sets on Sunday, pairing his signature fusion of hip-hop, funk, soul, and bass with a special Cloud Conductor performance. Built around his love for crate digging, Cloud Conductor gives him room to dive deeper into samples, flips, hip-hop cuts, and whatever else he pulls from the vault.
Ganja White Night
Friday | 7:45–9:00 PM | Fire Stage | Sunset Set
Few sounds in bass music are as instantly recognizable as Ganja White Night’s signature wobble. Coming off a fresh run of massive 2026 releases including Let It Go, Mask Off, and SOUNDBOY KILLA, the Belgian duo will unleash a fury of wompy bass drops and hard-hitting wobbles as the sun goes down.
Sub Focus
Sunday | 11:45 PM–1:00 AM | Water Stage
More than two decades into his career, Sub Focus remains at the heart of drum & bass as the genre continues to surge across North America. Coming off his fourth studio album, Contact, the UK legend has generations of DnB anthems to pull from as he closes out the Water Stage Sunday night.
