As you know we are in the midst of the first weekend of Coachella and in case you couldn’t make it out to California, don’t worry because technology is on your side. The event is being streamed by various sites all weekend long and there are already a ton of highlights that we can’t seem to get enough of. Just scroll down to see what we’re talking about.

Swedish House Mafia turned Coachella into a legit rave on Friday night complete with lasers, glow sticks and a light show that verged on epileptic. Make sure you keep watching until the end of “Save The World” to see the band’s “explosive” finale, just make sure you’re not sitting too close to your computer screen.

Gary Clark Jr. is a true guitar virtuoso and this mellow rendition of “Things Are Changin’” was the perfect soundtrack to a lazy beautiful California afternoon. Seriously we wish it was possible to live in this song’s groove, that’s how much we love it.

Childish Gambino a.k.a. Donald Glover may be best-known from his role on the TV show Community but that’s all changing due to the fact that he’s one of the best rappers around. But don’t take our word for it, check out this live version of “You See Me” from last night.

After the sun set on Saturday Bon Iver took the stage to perform an impassioned version of “The Wolves” that was as powerful as the majestic scenery that served as a backdrop. This video below gives us goosebumps so imagine how powerful it was live.

They may not be as big now as they were back in the ’90s but James’ minimalist song “Stutter” showcased that the band have only improved with age and they also illustrated hat you don’t need fancy gimmicks or backdrops to put on an impressive set at Coachella.
