Breathe in, catch your breath.

OK, time to go again.

EDC day one was wild.

Now, on to day two.

Here are 10 acts not to miss tonight:

— Four Tet, 1o p.m., Circuit Grounds: This indie electronic music favorite is the EDC newbie we’re most looking forward to seeing this year.

— Peggy Gou B2B Marcel Dettman, 11 p.m., Neon Garden: Missed Gou’s EDC debut on Friday? Here’s another chance to catch the rising EDM star.

— Purple Disco Machine, 11 p.m., Cosmic Meadow: Mauve-colored good times await.

— Special Guest, 11:30 p.m., Circuit Grounds: Who will it be this year? The anticipation is killing us — no, wait, maybe that’s our sore feet we’re thinking of.

—Tiesto, 12:31 a.m., Kinetic Field: It wouldn’t be EDC without a Saturday night set from Tiesto, the only artist to play every Vegas version of the fest since it debuted here in 2011.

— Paul Van Dyk, 1:30 a.m., Quantum Valley: For all the old schoolers in the house.

— Subtronics B2B Level Up, 1:30 a.m., Basspod: After playing the Kinetic Field last night, Subtronics returns to bring the bass.

— Alison Wonderland, 3 a.m., Kinetic Field. She performed nine months pregnant last year. Now, this EDC favorite is a new mom.

— Worship, 4 a.m., Cosmic Meadow: Sub Focus meets Dimension meets Culture Shock meets 1991. You’re dancing.

— MK, 4:30 a.m., Circuit Grounds: Sunrise sets are an EDC staple and annual highlight. This year, house lifer performs for the truly hardcore.
