Mad Decent Block Party-Major Lazer will be held on Feb 21st at E-Zone, Bangalore.
Mad Decent, the American record label helmed by Grammy-nominated and AMA winning producer Diplo (producer to Madonna, Usher, M. I. A., Justin Bieber amongst others) is bringing their wildly popular concert, the Mad Decent Block Party to India this February.
The label has been responsible for kick-starting the careers of many up and coming electronic producers including Dillon Francis , Baauer (of Harlem Shake fame) and TroyBoi to name a few.
Mad Decent has been a pioneer in introducing eclectic and fantastic regional sounds from Brazil, Angola and famously Jamaica amongst many other countries into clubs and dance floors across the world with the very first Mad Decent Block Party taking place in a street in Philadelphia, USA, back in 2008.
Keeping in line with Mad Decent's aim of presenting the best of global pop and dance music to new audiences, the Indian edition of Mad Decent Block Party will feature Major Lazer (known for their 2015 hit single, Lean On) as the headline act, British house-music duo Gorgon City , Big Gigantic whose sets are tinged with live electronica, hip--hop and jazz as well as American producer Giraffage amongst a host of local artists yet to be announced.
A Major Lazer show is party central, whether at a concert or a festival. Expect confetti guns that shoot colourful confetti into the crowd, inflatable animals that bounce around, constant blowing of vuvuzelas and dancers twerking and shimmying their way across the stage to the sounds of moombahton, reggae, trap hip-hop and even pop. Diplo zorbing across the crowd is a classic sight at any big Major Lazer show.
The champion of Indian drum 'n' bass and dubstep, Udyan Sagar a.k.a Nucleya will bringing his eclectic style and big tunes to the Mad Decent Block Party this February- expect punchy bass-lines and a high energy performance. Naezy vs Divine are also joining the line-up providing a healthy dose of beats and home grown hip-hop.
