Decibel Festival 2012: Staff Roadmaps
Posted by Allen Huang
One of the best things about Decibel Festival (besides the amazing lineup, the breadth of styles represented, and the fact that it’s completely urban), is that no two festivals are alike. Everybody has their own way about experiencing the over 150 artists, weaving in and out of showcases, staying up until dawn for the after parties.
But just looking at the schedule can be daunting. We here at SSGMusic have mocked up our (potentially, non-contractually binding) schedules for the festival. Let them serve as an inspiration/launching point for you and your tastes. Or stalk us!
