Fans of EDM in Orange County, rejoice. Pacific Symphony's Wavelength Festival of Music will be heading to the OC Fair & Event Center on August 24, featuring sets by KCRW's Jason Bentley (the host of Morning Becomes Eclectic for those of you who don't know), DJ Z-Trip and Bonobo, alongside members of Pacific Symphony.
Pacific Symphony invited Bentley to develop an event as part of the Wavelength Festival of Music that would showcase the global electronic dance movement in an alternative setting. You won't be able to find anything much more cooler than that!
