This page covers everything you need — from what to expect at a What So Not live show to finding the right seats and buying with confidence.

About What So Not

What So Not is an electronic music project founded in 2011 in Sydney, Australia, by Australian DJ and producer Chris Emerson, known by the stage name Emoh Instead. The project originally began as a collaboration between Emerson and Harley Streten, better known as Flume, before becoming Emerson’s solo vehicle after Flume departed in 2015. From its early years, What So Not helped shape a crossover sound that connected future bass, trap, and bass music with cinematic melody and festival-sized impact.

The project’s breakout profile grew through early releases such as the High You Are EP and its remixes, which became a major calling card for What So Not’s sound. Later projects including The Quack, Gemini, Not All the Beautiful Things, and Anomaly expanded that foundation, moving between heavy bass-driven production, widescreen synth textures, vocal features, and more personal full-length statements. Songs such as “High You Are,” “Jaguar,” “Gemini,” “Better,” “Be OK Again,” and “Stuck in Orbit” remain key pieces of the catalog fans connect with at live shows.

As a solo act, What So Not has maintained a strong presence across the festival and touring circuit, with appearances at major events including Coachella, Bonnaroo, EDC, and other large electronic and multi-genre festivals. Signed to Counter Records, part of Ninja Tune, Emerson continues to release music and tour, with Anomaly arriving in 2022 and later collaborative singles including work with Buunshin on “Tragic” and “The One.” For fans of melodic electronic music with a heavy low-end edge, What So Not tickets offer a direct path into one of Australia’s notable future-bass and trap crossover projects.

Why You Want to See What So Not Live

A What So Not concert is built around contrast: cinematic atmosphere one moment, hard-hitting bass the next. Emerson’s sound pairs emotive synth lines, warped vocal samples, dramatic builds, and trap-influenced percussion with the kind of low-end pressure that works especially well in clubs, theaters, and festival settings. The result is a live show that can feel both immersive and physical.

The catalog gives the set room to move. Tracks like “High You Are,” “Jaguar,” “Gemini,” “Lone,” and “Better” bring recognizable melodic hooks, while heavier album material and remix-driven selections create the sharper peaks that electronic crowds expect. What So Not sets are structured like dynamic DJ journeys, with transitions, drops, and crowd-building moments carrying the energy rather than a fixed front-to-back song list.

The crowd experience is a major part of the appeal. What So Not draws younger, energetic electronic-music fans, especially in festival and club environments where the room is already primed for dance music. With bass-heavy sound systems, immersive visuals, and lighting built around big drops, the show is designed to turn the audience into part of the momentum.

What to Expect at a What So Not Concert

A What So Not concert typically runs about 60 to 90 minutes for a headline DJ or live set, while festival slots are often shorter because they follow the event’s schedule. Headline club and theater shows often feature supporting DJs, while festival appearances are slotted into the larger lineup without a traditional opener.

The setlist is usually built from signature singles, remixes, and heavier album material. Instead of following one fixed sequence, What So Not performances move in a DJ-style arc, using transitions, surprise remixes, and carefully timed peaks to keep the room engaged. Expect familiar moments from tracks such as “High You Are,” “Gemini,” “Jaguar,” and “Stuck in Orbit,” along with deeper cuts and bass-forward material from albums and EPs.

The atmosphere tends to be high-energy and dance-focused. In clubs and music halls, the crowd is close to the sound system and stage production; at festivals, the set is shaped for larger fields and big collective reactions. Either way, the live experience leans into crowd-building transitions, dramatic drops, and the emotional lift of melodic electronic music.

Production is a core part of the show. What So Not performances emphasize powerful bass, immersive lighting, and visuals that heighten the build-and-release structure of the music. The staging is tuned for electronic environments, where the sound system, lighting, and crowd response all work together.

How Much Do Tickets to What So Not Cost?

What So Not tickets typically range from around $35 to $75 for general admission at club and theater headline shows, with VIP packages available at higher price points depending on the venue and market. Festival pricing is usually governed by the overall festival pass rather than a standalone What So Not ticket.

Prices can move based on the market, venue size, and whether the appearance is part of a festival lineup or a headline club date. Day of week and inventory movement also matter: weekend dates, compact club rooms, and high-demand markets can tighten quickly as available tickets sell through.

Buying earlier generally gives you better selection and pricing for higher-demand headline dates. As the show gets closer and inventory shrinks, the best remaining options often rise in price, especially for popular cities or limited-capacity venues.

What So Not Seating Guide

What So Not plays a mix of major festival stages, theaters, music halls, and electronic-focused clubs, so the best place to stand or sit depends on the venue layout. Because the show is built around bass, visuals, and crowd energy, it is worth comparing your options before buying.

Best Seats for a What So Not Concert

The right seat depends on what kind of show experience you're after:

  • Best value: General admission areas, upper-level theater sections, or standard festival pass access — these options keep you in the energy of the crowd while often offering the most accessible price point.
  • Closest to the stage: Front-of-stage, floor, or club GA positions — these give you maximum proximity to the performance, visuals, and crowd intensity, and they tend to move fastest in strong markets.
  • Best overall experience: Reserved theater sections or mid-room standing areas — these balance sound, sightline, and crowd energy without placing you too far from the stage.
  • For groups: Coordinating tickets early is the best approach, especially for reserved theater sections or festival plans, since blocks in popular areas can disappear quickly.

Getting Ready for Show Night

Once your tickets are confirmed, a little preparation makes the whole evening run smoother — from the parking lot to the final encore.

  • Download your tickets before you leave. Cell service around clubs, theaters, music halls, and festival grounds gets congested as show time approaches. Save your tickets to your phone's wallet or screenshot them before heading out so you're not searching at the gate.
  • Charge your phone fully. Digital ticketing is standard at most venues, and your phone is your entry. A portable battery pack is worth having for a full evening out.
  • Arrive before the listed start time. Headline club and theater shows often feature supporting DJs, and festival sets run on fixed schedules — getting there early helps you get inside before the room or field fills in.
  • Dress for the weather at outdoor shows. Festival appearances can mean long days outside, with warm afternoons and cooler nights — a light layer is worth bringing.
  • Check the venue's bag policy before you go. Individual venues set their own security guidelines; reviewing them before you leave home prevents delays at the entrance.
