Sebastian Ingrosso
This Italian house DJ and producer hit gold the day he was born in South Africa and all the days following when he was raised in Sweden. Sebastian Ingrosso grew up in his father's studio learning how to make music and released his first official remix through Mega Records at the ripe age of 17! Ingrosso heads up the A&R department of his own record label, "Refune," that has produced artists like AN21, Max Vangeli, Alesso, and Style of Eye. In 2009 he won the award for the highest new entry into the record charts, something that has only been surpassed by Deadmau5. And as if all of this weren't impressive enough, he is one of three brilliant parts that make up the renowned Swedish House Mafia (along with Axwell and Steve Angello). His discography is a novel in its own, and his knowledge and understanding of music run deep and shine in everything he creates. So throw on some Sebastian Ingrosso, stand up, and dance around the room like no one's watching! I know I sure have been! :) Hope you're ready to party, because he's going to bring it to you at Coachella 2012 on Saturday, April 14th and 21st!

Madeon
So you're 17-years old growing up in a world flourishing with new music, new technology, and new production opportunities. What are you supposed to do? Well, jump in head first, balls out, wearing your creativity on your sleeve, and don't look back, obviously! And that is exactly what Hugo Leclercq, better known as Madeon, did at the young and ripe age of 11 when he started composing music. This French, electropop producer picked up a nu-disco sound very early on and since has gone on to combine electro, dance and house into his feel-good beats. Madeon's music has a way about it that just makes you feel alive on the inside and fun on the outside. You can't help but shimmy, shake, foot tap, head bob, and air-keyboard it up when one of his upbeat jams comes on. He has done some killer remixes of Pendulum, Deadmau5, Wolfgang Gartner, and Yelle, and has gained major recognition for his use of the Novation Launchpad. His most-known song "Pop Culture" (video above) takes 39 pop songs, and combines them into one. If you just took another listen after learning that, I can't help but know your appreciation for the song just grew exponentially (as did mine). Madeon will be playing at Coachella on Friday, April 13th and 20th, so be sure to check out this under-age megastar!
