Armin Van Buuren, Will Sparks & More Added To 2015 EMC Speakers Lineup

The 2015 Electronic Music Conference (EMC) kicks off in Sydney in less than a week, and organisers have announced a stack of new speakers and panels, including Dutch DJ Armin Van Buuren, Melbourne producer Will Sparks and What So Not’s Chris Emerson.

Van Buuren, who is the head of Armada Music, will use a special panel at EMC 2015 to discuss the trend of artists setting up their own labels, and the positives and negatives of such an approach.

Others among the more than 30 newly announced speakers for EMC 2015 include Dutch-born producer and DJ MaRLo and Aussie DJ Kid Kenobi. Among the new list of EMC sessions are ‘The EMC Artist Panel’ and ‘The future of EDM in Asia’. Catch all the new speakers and sessions, below.

EMC’s previously announced speakers include artists like Timmy Trumpet, Tkay Maidza, Nina Las Vegas and Ta-ku, as well as industry masters like Carl Cox and Gilles Peterson.

EMC 2015 will take place across the 1st and 2nd December at the Ivy complex in Sydney, with over 180 speakers and 40 panels, sessions and masterclasses lined up. The conference’s EMCPlay party will be soundtracked by 25 rising Aussie dance acts.

Catch the full EMC 2015 lineup alongside ticket details below, and the full program over at the EMC website.
