Dance fans’ enthusiasm doesn’t cool

No dance music act stood out Sunday at Coachella the way Kraftwerk did Saturday, but the diversity of the second day’s lineup kept fans’ enthusiasm level high despite the sweltering heat.

German DJ Paul Van Dyk, in his Coachella debut, justified high expectations with a set that started heavy on the large synthesizers of trance before melding into some of the warmer sounds found on last year’s studio effort, “Reflections.”

British twosome 2 Many DJs played a mix of mashed hits -- mixing separate tracks together -- that weaved its magic on Beyonce’s “Crazy in Love,” Kelis’ “Milkshake” and others.

Another British duo, Hybrid, delivered a stylish two-hour tag-team DJ set that built nicely from hook-laden techno to a faster-paced blend of styles, including hints of drum-and-bass.

Between DJ sets in the Sahara Tent, local heroes the Crystal Method went for a surprisingly darker and progressive sound early in their hour-plus set, a daring choice given they could’ve kept fans ecstatic just cranking out the break beat sounds they’ve come to expect. And fans got the rocking out they wanted when Kyuss frontman John Garcia joined TCM for “Born Too Slow” and on the duo’s biggest hit, “Busy Child.”

At the Outdoor Theatre, Basement Jaxx turned in a soul- and funk-heavy live set. Featuring a rotating group of vocalists, as well as guest Dizzee Rascal on one song, the group rocked the crowd with “Romeo” and “Where’s Your Head At?”
