At another, a daytime crowd of techno lifers trying to figure out the magic tricks of a supergroup making a rare appearance. These were the scenes at DJ Snake and Belleville Three, each defining the twin poles of dance music at Coachella right now. DJ Snake is the standard bearer for what EDM culture has become now -- an arms race of aggressive trap and dubstep, with occasional punctuation of high-velocity rave.
