“We will be having three of the most energetic sets from the Weekender. There’s going to be interesting visuals to accompany the music by Wolves and stage décor too,” says Arjun Shah of Shark & Ink, a live entertainment, music management company.

Norcotiq or Abhimanyu Meer will start with a set of Dance music followed by Arsh. Desai, a Mumbaikar, has been DJing since he was 15, and has just released an EP, titled Vulgar Story. He will be completing the line-up for the night. “My latest EP is more of Underground Techno while when I started out it was essentially Psychedelic and down tempo.

There isn’t much Techno music in India. At the gig, it’s going to be straight up groovy Techno that will be full of energy,” says Desai.
