It's only been four years since Made Event tossed its first Electric Zoo in the open air at Randall's Island—but in that short space of time, the three-day festival has become a don't-miss attraction on the electronic-dance-music circuit, attracting EDM fans from throughout the area and around the world. This year's lineup, as in past years, is heavy on the superstar-DJ action—David Guetta, Skrillex and Tiësto are just a few of the big names on hand—but there will be plenty of less bombastic sounds for those looking for something on the underground tip, too.
