Our friends at URB brought you the indispensable guide to the Electric Daisy Carnival last week, so it's only fitting that the L.A.-based electronic music magazine pens a recap of the event that includes a little loving criticism.

At this point, the festival's failings are writ large across the headlines, largely thanks to the drug-related death of an underage patron. Staff wasn't supposed to let anyone in under the age of 16, and let it was a young girl of 15 who died.

Others were trampled, overly self-medicated and accidentally drugged (one attendee reportedly ended up in the hospital after sating himself with a stranger's water bottle), leading to over 100 people being hospitalized and a temporary ban on “raves” at the L.A. Coliseum.

To get a feel for the music, which was quite good, read our review of EDC. After the jump, URB gets into the nitty-gritty.
