Skrillex
First the diminutive DJ and post-dubstepper was aligned with Light, but he hasn’t played the Mandalay danceteria since March. Lately, he’s been a regular presence at XS, suggesting he’s on borrow for pool season. Kaskade has been similarly shared between Marquee and XS.

Bassnectar
One of the biggest draws in bass music was once a Surrender resident, but his only Vegas date on the books will be hosted at Brooklyn Bowl—which may be a better fit for the unconventional DJ.

Hot Since 82
Why Marquee hasn’t swooped in to sign this hot-sh*t British house DJ for its afterhours program is beyond me. Either he’s become too expensive, or Marquee has become too timid.

Paul Oakenfold, Paul van Dyk, BT
These trance kings ruled the late 1990s and early 2000s, but now even former serotonin sultan Oakenfold can barely crack the DJ Mag Top 100, and PvD hasn’t played the Strip in a few years. With trance supposedly coming back, maybe he’ll find himself a new club home.
