The first weekend of Coachella's 20th anniversary event this year proved once again why the festival is considered one of the most famous music festivals on the planet.

A bombshell of a year for electronic music line-up, the event featured a strong showing of techno and house talents like Eric Prydz as Cirez D, Four Tet, Hot Since 82, Tale Of Us, DJ Seinfeld, Stephan Bodzin and celebrity stars Idris Elba and Virgil Abloh. Other included techno enforcers Amelie Lens and Charlotte De Witte, Gesaffelstein, the recently reunited Deep Dish (Dubfire and Sharam), Rüfüs Du Sol, Bob Moses and many more.

The obvious standout performance from the weekend was a rare appearance from Aphex Twin who obliterated the minds of his fans with his first Coachella performance in 10 years. You can check out the full set by going here.
