Kaskade is stepping into the spotlight of festival season with a massive new collaboration that already feels destined to define summer 2026. Teaming up with Layton Giordani and rising vocalist Natalie Jane, the trio have unveiled “Meet Again,” the official anthem of Electric Daisy Carnival Las Vegas 2026. Released through Insomniac Records, the track arrives as both a celebration of the festival’s monumental 30th anniversary and the first glimpse into Kaskade’s forthcoming album Origin //.
“Meet Again” captures the emotional intensity and euphoric scale that have long defined EDC’s biggest moments. The production balances Kaskade’s melodic storytelling with Layton Giordani’s driving peak-time energy, while Natalie Jane’s soaring vocal performance injects the record with an emotional pull that feels tailor-made for sunrise singalongs and mainstage finales alike. Cinematic tension builds throughout the track before exploding into a festival-ready release, creating a song designed not only for massive speaker systems but also for the deeply personal moments that define dance music culture.
The release also serves as a centerpiece of the official EDC Las Vegas 30th anniversary compilation, an expansive 80-track collection showcasing original music from artists appearing at this year’s landmark event. Released through Insomniac Music Group, the compilation reflects the vast sonic landscape that EDC has cultivated over three decades, spanning house, techno, trance, bass, and hard dance. Alongside contributions from Kaskade and Layton Giordani, the compilation includes music from major names such as Hardwell, MEDUZA, Seven Lions, SLANDER, Gareth Emery, Paul van Dyk, Eli Brown, Lilly Palmer, Wax Motif, KREAM, and Cosmic Gate, among many others.
Meanwhile, anticipation continues to build for Electric Daisy Carnival Las Vegas 2026 itself, which returns to the Las Vegas Motor Speedway from May 15–17. More than 500,000 Headliners are expected to gather beneath the Electric Sky for what promises to be one of the biggest editions in the festival’s history. What began three decades ago as a Southern California underground gathering has evolved into one of the world’s most influential dance music festivals, shaping global rave culture while continuing to emphasize creativity, self-expression, and community.
This year’s theme, kineticJOURNEY, reflects that legacy by honoring the evolution of both EDC and the worldwide dance music community that has grown alongside it. The 2026 edition will feature performances from an enormous cross-section of electronic music talent, including Martin Garrix, John Summit, FISHER, Peggy Gou, Tiësto, The Chainsmokers, Charlotte de Witte, Armin van Buuren, Above & Beyond, Zedd, Subtronics, Alison Wonderland, Klangkuenstler, Solomun, and Vintage Culture, alongside exclusive back-to-back sets and signature sunrise performances.
With “Meet Again,” Kaskade, Layton Giordani, and Natalie Jane have delivered more than just another festival single. The track arrives as a celebration of connection, nostalgia, and collective energy — the same emotions that have powered EDC for 30 years. As the countdown to Las Vegas continues, “Meet Again” already feels positioned to become one of the defining anthems of the 2026 festival season.
