Kendrick Lamar, Neutral Milk Hotel, and Beck will take the stage during the weekend of July 18 - 20. Death Grips, Mas Ysa, and Grimes are also slated to perform their respective sets. Now in its tenth year, the little festival that could is making waves with the bigwigs. Giorgio Moroder, the focal point of Daft Punk's Grammy-winning Random Access Memories, is slated to spin a set. Now, that's something to get hyped about. Coachella can share Beck with Pitchfork, but can it say it's bringing a dance music legend to its arena? Based on this list, the correct response is: "No." Final answer, Regis.
