#RSFans’ Favorite EDM Performers
Last week, Deadmau5 rankled a few feathers with his admission that "we all hit play," referring to the inherent limitations that performing live presents to electronic artists. But regardless of whether or not they all "hit play," people still flock to electronic dance events in droves – now more than ever. With that in mind, we asked for your favorite producers and DJs to see live, and you didn't disappoint. There's some no-brainers and some surprises to be had. Click through for your top picks.
