Coachella Artists of the Day: Dec. 19, 2025

Green Velvet x AYYBO

Origin: Chicago, Illinois, USA x Anaheim, California, USA 🇺🇸

Genre / Subgenres: Electronic / House, Techno

Green Velvet has been DJing long before AYYBO was even born, but the two are teaming up to put on one hell of a set that's rumored to go against Justin Bieber's on the main stage as counter-programming. Velvet is a Chicago native who has been making fun, unhinged electronic music for the better part of 35 years. You know the song "Percolator"? Yeah, that's him. AYYBO, on the other hand, is a newcomer in his mid-20s, still trying to make an impression in the mainstream. To stay fresh and relevant, he writes his own lyrics and lays his own vocals on some of his tracks.

Performing: Saturday

Stage Prediction: Yuma

For Fans of: Patrick Topping, Shiba San, San Pacho

Key Tracks: La La Land / Percolator / Hypnosis (feat. ero808)

Live Sets: Green Velvet - Drumsheds 2024 (London, England) / AYYBO - ARC Festival 2025 (Chicago, Illinois, USA)

HUGEL

Origin: Marseilles, France 🇫🇷

Genre / Subgenres: Electronic / House, Latin house, Deep house

Leave it to the French DJ to popularize Latin house. In 2018, not only did his original track "Morenita" go super viral, but so did his remix of "Bella ciao", which is what he's most famously known for. Running through his top tracks, it was nothing but all positive beach vibes. Throw him on and tell me you don't want to chill poolside at a beach club in Tulum.

Performing: Friday

Stage Prediction: Sahara*

For Fans of: Tiësto, Diplo, Adam Port

Key Tracks: Think Of Me (w/ David Guetta, Kehlani & Daecolm) / Bella Ciao / Morenita (feat. Cumbiafrica)

Live Set: Gold Bar 2025 (San Francisco, California, USA)

Rating: ★★★★
