Lily Moayeri Coachella is a polarizing festival. Arguably the flagship North American music fest, it started as a groundbreaking place for alternative artists and the setting where pioneering groups would reform, but now is seen by many a pop playground for youngsters where Jumbotron headliners overwhelm the festival’s lineup. But there is hope for music lovers looking for a non-mainstream experience in the blistering desert. It comes in the form of the festival’s electronic music-focused Do LaB tent. Every year, marquee names that don’t appear on the Coachella flyer — or have already performed their advertised slot — hit the Do LaB stage. Skrillex, Major Lazer, Richie Hawtin, LP Giobbi, Rüfüs du Sol, Bob Moses, Madeon, SG Lewis and John Summit are some of the top-tier names that have surprised audiences with cutting-edge sets in the tent.

Ditto Music has settled a legal dispute with Lil Yachty which related to the promotion of Opulous, the music NFT start-up and sister company to the DIY distributor.The rapper – real name Miles McCollum – went legal in January last year via the courts in California, claiming that Opulous had used his name and brand as part of its launch communications in 2021, even though he had never agreed to get involved in the new venture.Ditto was also named as a defendant – as was Ditto and Opulous founder Lee Parsons – on the basis that they had both posted about those launch communications on their respective social media channels.McCollum’s lawsuit conceded that he and his management team had met with Parsons to discuss Opulous, which encourages fans to invest in new music in return for a royalty right linked to any tracks they support, all secured via NFTs on the blockchain.However, said lawsuit insisted, they never agreed to work with the NFT start-up, or for Lil Yachty’s name to be linked to it in formal communications.In a media statement responding to the lawsuit, Opulous insisted that it had, in fact, secured the necessary approvals before linking Lil Yachty to its NFTs platform. However, it was Ditto and Parsons that formally responded through the courts.They both tried to get the case dismissed on jurisdiction grounds, arguing that Ditto is a UK-based company and Parsons is a British citizen with no formal connections to California.However, the judge ruled that Ditto – with US addresses on its website, employees recruited in the US and American events promoted on its social media – fell under the jurisdiction of the Californian courts.
