Minnesota
Minnesota just dropped his newest EP Altered States last week and it is a sweet piece of work. I saw him perform on tour with Paper Diamond earlier this year right around the time he released his last EP, Astral Projection. He puts on a great live performance and his original productions have only continued to improve in quality.

[...] For those of you unfamiliar with Camp? (pronounced Camp Questionmark), these guys have been a presence at Burning Man as a sound camp that brings a new definition to bass heavy. On November 23rd the camp rolled out with Appreciation, geared towards Thanksgiving vibes and a celebration of the 5 years since they organized their first public event.
