Bass music icon Diplo has taken to Twitter to reveal a series of performances at Burning Man in Nevada’s Black Rock Desert. He and Skrillex teamed up at last year’s edition of the festival to debut their Jack Ü project, and will join forces on the playa again next weekend – in addition to performances by Diplo’s Major Lazer project as well as a solo set of “deep dub and reggae” at the Robot Heart sound car.

Diplo’s following Tweets reveal the days and times of his live sets at Burning Man:

As controversial as Jack Ü’s Burning Man performance was last year (first they got booed off the stage, but then it turned out they didn’t…?), this year an insect plague of biblical proportions is turning out to be the gathering’s most talked-about appearance. While the exact severity of the infestation varies depending on the who you ask, it’s hard to imagine a Jack Ü set turning quite as many heads.

If you’re attending Burning Man, let us know whether you’ll look forward to any of Diplo‘s performances at the massive by sounding off in the comments section.
