Kaskade has released his entire Coachella 2012 set as a free download on SoundCloud. The set is full of mashups and bootlegs, and should make up for the fact that his set was not streamed at Ultra.

Coachella 2012 Weekend 1 is a wrap, check out all our coverage here.

If I had to come up with one reason for why Justice is my favorite electronic act, I would have to say it is because they are different. I've seen enough LED walls and heard enough prepackaged presets to know - what's popular isn't always good. True talent lies within those artists who choose to be different.

Modeselektor closes out the Mojave tent at Coachella Weekend 1 despite playing against Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg.

I spent 3 days in the desert heat lugging around camera gear to bring you back some shots from Coachella 2012. Do you know how hard it is to party with a backpack full of expensive photography equipment? It's practically impossible. While I go see a chiropractor, you can check out the photos in our Facebook album.

The warm weather had finally arrived - and with it the outrageous outfits and beautiful women that Coachella is so well known for. Sunday's lineup was easily the most stacked, turning my festival experience into a marathon.

The skies opened up on the second day of Coachella, bringing with it an energy that rejuvenated the crowd. Despite numerous (but necessary) distractions, we managed to arrive unscathed at the polo grounds just in time to catch Jacques Lu Cont, who's performance warrants a post all its own. The only way to describe it would be phenomenal, his tight grooves and melodies were the perfect compliment to the beautifully sunny day.

A full video of Swedish House Mafia's set from Coachella has surfaced on YouTube. The track selection is pretty standard, but there's a new ID track early in the set that could be the new SHM single.

Upon arriving at the polo grounds for Coachella 2012, it was readily apparent that this festival was nothing like those that I frequent back on the East coast. Gone were the bizarrely dressed, pre-teen ravers - instead, fashion-conscious, faux hippies took their place. Goldenvoice chose Indio, California for its predictable weather and comfortable climate. It might rain 5 times a year here. Yesterday just happened to be one of those days.

Along with being the mastermind behind the Essential Selection, Pete Tong gives us a special 8 track mix that prepares us for the fun that is to be had at Coachella this weekend.
