After already announcing their first run of artists with the likes of Tensnake, M.A.N.D.Y, Paul Kalkbrenner and Australia’s own Cut Copy leading the charge, Germany’s beloved Melt! Festival has grown in size once again, with festival officials announcing a wave of extra acts overnight.

Ballooning the festival out a bit futher – and there’s still more to come, you know – Melt! have has added all colours of the dance music spectrum to its July 15-17 bash with the likes of Guy Gerber, Gold Panda, Proxy and Carte Blanche in the vanguard as well as a special back to back set from Carl Craig and Radio Slave.

What’s most noticeable about the new round of names is the predominance of live acts with artists like Metronomy, The Naked And Famous, Little Dragon and Crystal Fighters repping the indie side of dance, while both Digitalism and Junior Boys will make live returns, as will Redshape.

Check out the full list of new acts on the bill and see where Melt! Festival ranks in ITM’s 15 Festivals To Do Before You Die countdown.
