The 17 Best Sets of 2023

This year we kept the mystery alive by following the breadcrumbs to underground raves, basked in the VIP fan-blown mist by the main stage, stayed tight on the dance floor all-night-long waiting for rare performances, revisited our roots at staple camping festivals and danced in the most immersive environments to spread the word of the moments from the dance floors that stuck.

From psy-tech and progressive house to melodic dance music and innovative samplings, these 17 sets harped on that inner chord that rings, “just the way I like it” and keep us fueled to keep discovering music at the forefront.

After reviewing the list of shows Factory 93 put on this year and recalling all the missed opportunities, here are thatDROP camp’s favorite sets of 2023.
