I can hear people talking around me and cannot hear the music. Wtf?

Editing for better description: Main Stage and Dome after 10 PM.

ShockOne B2b Aeon Mode, Mefjus, and Black Sun Empire. The sound wasn't thin, but it was super quiet. When they spoke on the mic, it was at least 50% louder than the music itself.

Main for Camo & Crooked and Hedex. For Hedex specifically, after 40 minutes, they started what looked like calibrating speakers. You could hear the sound stage moving front and back, some side movement too, adjusting lows, trying to fix the mids.

For reference: a picture of the VU meters hitting only half the scale on Dome stage during ShockOne B2B AEON Mode

I'm a huge fan of his music, but what happened to his live sets?

He went from a nice flow and sick blends to a Spotify playlist, no flow at all, stopping so many times to play full version tracks.

Happened to me at Rampage Weekend and yesterday at EDC Vegas. I must be honest tho, I was kinda expecting this at EDC since he's playing at the mainstage, 3rd slot... But Rampage Weekend he could've ripped, and it was soft. :(

This summer I'm coming to Europe again for some festivals, and whenever there's a conflict of his time slot with some other DJ I want to see, I'm not even questioning myself by missing his set.

I miss dancing non stop, feeling exhausted mid set and not being able to keep up with myself. Is that era gone?
