Ray Volpe

Ray Volpe has become one of the hottest names in the dubstep world. With viral smash hits like “Laserbeam,” “See You Drop,” “Happy Song,” and “Song Request” under his belt, it’s hard to imagine a modern festival dubstep set NOT including some Ray Volpe in there. He’s worked with dozens of iconic collaborators over his hard years of producing like Virtual Riot, Sullivan King, Crankdat, TYNAN, KAYZO, NGHTMRE, and tons more. He mixes in Drum and Bass, Trap, and Bass House in both his works and his live sets, always switching up the tempo and keeping fans on their feet. We are amped to catch him at Project Glow 2026 and get some headbanging in!

Sara Landry

The queen of Techno has arrived in Washington DC! Known for her self-taught production methods, Sara Landry is one of the loftiest forces in all of electronic music. Her inspirations range from dark, heavy, Berghain-feeling sounds, to mainstream and electro-pop icons like Lady Gaga. Her 2023 Boiler Room set catapulted her to huge heights, and her festival sets are not to be skipped. She’ll have all of the house and bass heads wondering if Techno actually is for them.

ALLEYCVT

ALLEYCVT is dominating the dubstep scene. After breaking out in 2024, ALLEYCVT has collabed with some of the biggest names in the circuit, ranging from Crankdat, Mersiv, Levity, Zingara and more. Her Planet Supersonic tour continued to push her boisterous sounds and stage presence to the masses. Her flip game is off the charts, with insane remixes of Tame Impala, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Kesha, and tons more. Her shows are fueled with crowd energy, making her Project Glow set officially CAN’T MISS!!

Avello

A rising star electronic music phenom, Avello is everywhere nowadays. His remix of Disco Lines & Tinashe’s ‘No Broke Boys’ was arguably bigger and better than the original and since he has released tunes with huge names ranging from Adventure Club to ARMNHMR to Laszewo. Back to back performances with Big Gigantic, Levity, Dennett and more have also catapulted him into the spotlight. If you aren’t hip to Avello in 2026, it’s time to change that ASAP.

G Jones b2b EPROM

G Jones and EPROM are two of the kings of the experimental bass world. Their glitchy, punchy, distinct sounds make a perfect fit for each other, and the two have probably performed dozens of sets together as well as having multiple official releases together. The domineering forces of electronic music have picked G Jones and EPROM as two of our finest creators, with cosigns and collabs from the likes of Skrillex, Flume, and Porter Robinson.
