As the event draws near, the organizers are sharing the full lineup.

English actor, DJ, and recording artist Idris Elba has just added three new songs to his catalogue. On September 21st, he shared an EP called The Phantom Files (From Cyberpunk 2077), which is to mark the worldwide release of the Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty video game, in which his likeness and image are used as one of the lead characters.
The EP, classified as hip-hop (although one of the songs is clearly deep-house) comes to us courtesy of Elba‘s own imprint, 7Wallace Music. All three tracks are included in the aforementioned video game’s official soundtrack.
