This week, Ultra Music Festival announced that the globetrotting DJ/producer Solomun and his label Diynamic will take over the Resistance Megastructure during the festival's 25th edition next year.

Solomun (real name Mladen Solomun) cofounded Diynamic in 2006. Almost two decades later, the label has featured prominent artists like Stimming, DJ Koze, and Boys Noize's allies, Elax.

Solomun's colleagues Mau P, Chloé Caillet, Rafael Cerato, and Four Tet will join him in Miami for the takeover.

Four Tet has seen much-deserved mainstream acclaim, taking on juggernaut festivals like Lollapalooza, Coachella (with a B3B between himself, Fred Again (stylized Fred Again..), and Skrillex), and EDC Las Vegas, where he managed to drop techno, house, System of a Down, and Avicii's "Levels" without the slightest bit of irony.

Solomun's duties do not end at the Megastructure. Ultra's team added that there will be a debut back-to-back between himself and Italy's Anyma (AKA Matteo Miller, one half of the duo Tale of Us) at Ultra's main stage.

"Operating at the compelling intersection between art, technology, and music, Anyma is a world-renowned, multidisciplinary artist whose melodic-techno beats and visionary, one-of-a-kind audiovisual live experience have captivated the attention of millions," Ultra said in a statement.

Attendees should expect a riveting audiovisual showcase combined with Anyma's penchant for melodic techno and Solomon's malleability to play anything with a groove.

This is another push by Ultra to showcase the breadth of the main stage outside of EDM. For example, the techno artist Charlotte de Witte played the main stage two years ago.

Solomun's popularity has skyrocketed over the last decade, even earning him a profile piece in the New Yorker. His Solomun +1 residency at Pacha Ibiza is a pinnacle showing on the Island, while the Croatian artist continues to headline festivals and play eighteen-hour club sets.

Ultra returns to Bayfront Park March 28-30. The festival will most likely announce its phase-one lineup later this fall.

Ultra Music Festival 2025. Friday, March 28, through Sunday, March 30, 2025, at Bayfront Park, 301 Biscayne Blvd., Miami; ultramusicfestival.com. Tickets cost $349.95 to $1,499.95 via ultramusicfesitval.com/tickets.
