Over a year in preparation; Willy Wonka and all of his little friends invite you to return to their world of lickable wallpaper, oompaloompa hullabaloo and smellatoriums, where surprises lurk around every corner.We take a different approach to constructing a fully interactive electronic music environment. As you prepare yourself for the Wonka 2 experience, tie your shoelaces tight and keep all your senses on full alert. This year we're taking it to another level with two unbelievable rooms full of imagination and internationally acclaimed talent. Expect the unexpected for "We are the music makers and we are the dreamers of the dreams." -Willy WonkaDJ Sneak - Magnetic, All WorldSneak's pioneering, filtered house style can lay claim to influencing other artists such as Daft Punk, Basement Jaxx and Armand Van Helden, to name a few. DJ Sneak has been producing his banging signature style of House for over ten years. Influencing his work were early Chicago underground House music pioneers such as Farley Jackmaster Funk, Ralphi Rosario and Steve Hurley. He has held his place as one of the top 100 DJs of the world for 5 consecutive years. This year, Sneak will be launching his new record label Magnetic Recordings where he is releasing all new music, compilations, new talents and continue to preach the sound of Chicago House Music. The future will bring about new light to DJ Sneak's journey focusing on the development and evolution of electronic music's struggle to be acknowledged as the sound of tomorrow.Derrick Carter - Classic Music CompanyWhether you've heard him perform once in your life or party with him every week, we all agree, he's a turntable magician. His seamless blends and the unbelievable length of his mixes leave people's jaws dropped all across the world. No matter what your mood or what's going on in your reality, just one look at his infectious smile and everything seems all rightâ€Â¦ If you've heard any of the releases on Derrick's labels Blue Cucaracha and Classic, you'd expect that his sets run the whole musical gamut from house, old-school disco, soul, jazz, and whatever else inspires him at any given moment. Gracing our stage in a very special performance with his old friend DJ Sneak, we proudly welcome a true living House legend.DJ Swamp - Decadent RecordsOne of the world's master turntablists, DJ Swamp is best know as Beck's DJ.
