Five Must See Sets At Decadence Arizona

Decadence Arizona is stacked, but these five sets are the ones that’ll make you groove the hardest. Here’s what you should be plotting for your New Year’s Eve warpath: FISHER still owns that stupid grin for a reason. The Australian tech house titan brings an infectious energy that is impossible to ignore. FISHER is like a charismatic, bucket-hat-wearing cartoon character conducting a sea of thousands. With a crate full of 2025 anthems like “Stay” and “Blackberries” alongside classics like “Atmosphere” and “Losing It,” his set will be a masterclass in groove-heavy basslines and crowd control. If you’re a seasoned house head or just looking to dance, Fisher’s ability to command the mainstage with both technical precision and wild theatrics makes this a mandatory stop for anyone looking for a full blown rager. Gio Lucca doesn’t storm the stage, he sneaks up on you with a groove and then refuses to let go. You can expect warm, analog drums, warped vocal chops and obscure, crate dug samples crafted into peak-ready tech house. Think funky, percussion-forward cuts that slide easily between late-night warmth and sharper festival energy. Gio launched his own imprint, ISO, this year alongside an instant classic rework of “Cocaine Cool.” This will be a set for people who love texture over tricks. Those who prefer DJs who build momentum with taste will eat this up. If you want smart, soulful dance floor control with a vintage heartbeat, Gio’s slot is unmissable. Sammy Virji is the smiling face of the UK Garage renaissance. His set at Decadence is mandatory for anyone looking to trade heavy headbanging for infectious two step rhythms that make it near physically impossible to stand still. Virji has exploded in the States by turning every venue into a sweaty, wholesome rave, blending dirty basslines with a cheeky, unpretentious energy that feels like a breath of fresh air. Expect a rollercoaster of rapid-fire cuts like “Shella Verse,” “If U Need It,” and his 2024 weapon “Damager.” His technical wizardry behind the decks is matched only by his genuine enthusiasm. If you want to leave the festival with a smile stuck on your face, this is the one. For the true house heads who crave rolling basslines over pyrotechnics, the Brunello b2b KinAhau set is the ultimate “if you know, you know” dark horse of the festival. While the mainstage focuses on big drops, this back-to-back performance brings the slick, minimal “Miami sound” straight to the Arizona desert. KinAhau, a rising star in the Solid Grooves-adjacent scene, is a master of those deep, chugging grooves that lock you into a trance, while Brunello adds a layer of unpretentious, percussive club energy that feels tailor-made for the warehouse atmosphere of the Conservatory stage. Expect a set defined by long blends and that specific type of proper tech house that keeps the shufflers moving for hours. It’s the perfect warm-up to get your legs loose before the night ramps up. Don’t sleep on this set if you want to catch a vibe before the crowds get too thick. If you want to ring in 2026 with house music royalty rather than a ball drop, Green Velvet’s countdown set is the only correct decision. Uncle Velvet doesn’t just play tracks, he holds court. When others might rely on gimmicks, the green-mohawked legend commands the crowd with that signature Chicago swagger and hypnotic, thumping techno that feels like it’s rewiring your brain in real time. Expect the midnight moment to be an absolute madhouse, likely scored by his 2025 heaters like “When It Kicks” or “Butterflies” as he commands thousands of people to camera ready for the first moment of the New Year. It’s dark, it’s groovy, and it’s the ultimate way to start 2026: sweating on the dancefloor while the preacher man takes you to church.
