Audiotistic 2010 Wrap: Kid Cudi and Talib Kweli Stand Out Amongst the DJs

Posted by shore On July - 25 - 2010

@AndyShore My day could not have gone worse on Saturday. Then Audiotistic 2010 happened. It was not quite the never-ending sea of people that EDC was, but quite the similar scene. Back were the glitter-covered, scantly clad party monsters and untz. Lots of untz. Unlike EDC, hip hop came to play. Ridiculous festival traffic and guest list lines meant missing N.A.S.A. I am not happy about this. I didn’t even make it in time to get to the photo pit for Talib Kweli. Luckily I recently added a 300mm zoom lens to my arsenal. I danced a lot. I took a lot of pictures. I spent enough energy to sleep until 1:30pm. Waiting for @TheAdamJames with some late night munchies, I realized I had glitter on me…and a lot of other peoples’ sweat. Gross. Here is Audiotistic 2010 in pictures.

Talib Kweli lead the crowd in a Bob Marley sing-a-long during his set that also included solo material and Blackstar jams. Also part of the set were songs from his collaborations with Hi-Tek, who DJed the set.

Ravers took a cue from the hippies. They're all about love. I saw tons of kids making hearts with their hands.

Words to live by. Awkward girl.

More hearts with hands. The girl on the right doesn't get it either.

I'm not sure what I did to these people. I'm pretty sure they asked me to take a picture of them. I guess the joke is on me.

That's more like it. These kids are having a good time riding the rail. I'm pretty sure that's Bassnectar, and not me, that's causing that face.

Kid Cudi is an entertainer. The man cracks jokes, spins and jumps around the stage with reckless abandon. His flow is as good live as it is in the studio.

Kid Cudi soaks it all in. The text was as packed as it was hot, and Cudi let the crowd know he was feeling their energy.
