If it wasn’t for Pearl Jam, Coachella might not exist — at least not how we know it today. In 1993 the Seattle band boycotted ticket master due to their monopolizing redistribution system and staged an alternative concert at the Empire Polo Club, establishing the venue as a suitable place for live music. Coachella now takes place at the same venue and — somewhat ironically — has become one of the most profitable music festivals in the US and showcases performances of some of our biggest stars. This year, it was no different, and the popular festival was host to guest performances by none less than Beyonce, Gwen Stefani, Debbie Harry, Justin Bieber and Slash. And what’s more, although it looks like Andre 3000 and Big Boi are lacking the energy of the old days, the main stage was the setting for Outkast’s reunion after 12 years. Here, we’ve selected some of those memorable and much-talked-of moments of Coachella 2014, so you can relive them all in one post!

Made up of Jeremy de Tolly of the Dirty Skirts, Thomas Glendinning and Greg Abrahams, Original Swimming Party is a new music project that defines itself as ‘experimental electronica’. While Thom Yorke’s influence is recognizable in de Tolly’s mood-setting vocals, the trio’s Blue EP is definitely full of experiments and not void of novelty. It’s a 21st century, visuals-inspiring sound that doesn’t shy away of mixing up the classic with the future. The EP was launched at The Fugard Theatre on 9 April, 2014, is downloadable for a donation and features five songs that alternate between mind-strolling melodies, avant-garde drones and beats as intense as apocalypse-fearing pulses. Here we go, lean back, listen and stay posted for an upcoming interview with Original Swimming Party!
