Coachella is the the festival so nice they hold it twice.

And given a solid seven days to recover, Australian electronic wunderkinds Empire Of The Sun had fans 'Walking On A Dream' all over again for weekend two of the Californian mega-festival.

Dressed in the same silky-black futuristic full-length outfits from last weekend, Friday was all about the blinding neon stage lights and eerie robot backup dancers.

Hitting the stage at around 10pm, the penultimate performers to grace the Sahara stage set the bar mighty high for the second week in a row.

The Australian duo of Luke Steele and Nick Littlemore emerged to a stage setup that included glowing pyramids of piercing white light and a six-pronged silver statue front-and-centre containing a cocoon-like white orb in the middle.

Not to be outdone by a simple centre-piece, Perth-born Luke, 37, sported a headdress that contained it's own thick, black prongs, gleaming like a chandelier in the sun.

Later, he set-down the ornate head-wear to expose an equally futuristic haircut that blended a quiff style on top with buzz-cut sides and a longer clipped-mullet-style back.

His full-length collared coat and painted-on white glasses interestingly represents a refined outfit composition for the band, who usually layer colour after colour into their outfits.

The musician was later snapped shredding on a cobalt blue electric guitar as a sea of smoke coalesced with pink and yellow light behind him.

Later, he clutched a microphone in each hand during an action shot that captured him sliding across stage as a string of hot-pink spotlights bathe him in a powerful glow.

Further along in a set spanning their Walking On A Dream, Ice On The Dune and recently released Two Vines records, two performers dressed in abstract metallic dresses and aeroplane goggles emerged to add their left-of-field flare to an already wild show.

Bathed in blinding flashes of pink, white and yellow light for their climactic finale, the Australians treated lucky fans to spectacular musicianship to match their high-budget light show.

The Sydney-based electronic duo formed in 2007, and reached their biggest chart success with Walking On A Dream at number 10 in Australia and 65 in the US.

Considered an alternative band, their pop-worthy chart performances was enough for the group to be one of the highest-billed acts at the star-studded festival.
