Top 5 Must-See Sets at Forbidden Kingdom 2023

Forbidden Kingdom 2023 is shaping up to be one of the biggest dubstep festivals of the year and is showcasing some of the most unique and talented artists in bass music.

Although many of the producers on the lineup are known for their heavy sound, some are slowing it down and giving a much-needed break in between the mosh-pits and rail breaking. Check out our can’t-miss sets of Forbidden Kingdom 2023.

Drinkurwater is a rising star in the bass scene for his unconventional beats that literally sound like water and give you an “ear tickle.” This set will also serve as a friendly reminder to drink your water because the Florida heat in June is no joke. 

2. Excision: Detox Set

Although you likely won’t be needing a neck brace after this Excision set, Detox sets are a chance to hear some of the best music in experimental bass and experience a different side of Excision’s artistic abilities. For those that aren’t fans of slowing it down, don’t worry; you will be getting the full Excision experience with a regular set on Friday and a detox set on Saturday to wind down.

I've been a part of the dance music scene for nearly a decade and with Exron for more than half of that time. My first event was Diplo's Mad Decent but these days you'll find me at Club Space or the Brooklyn Mirage. Some of my top artists are G Jones, Tipper, Of The Trees, and CharlestheFirst. My favorite genres are techno, experimental bass, and ambient but I'll get down to anything with a beat!
