about
A collaboration that has been in-the-making for months, and one that was brought to fruition after New Delhi online radio station boxout fm and Northern Ireland’s Celtronic Festival were both recipients of grants from the British Council, the live-streamed showcase will feature 18 live and DJ performances from New Delhi and just as many from the riverside city of Derry. Moving away from studio locations, Delhi's leg of the showcase has been filmed at Dramz Delhi with the iconic Qutub Minar standing proud in the background, while Derry's takes place at Magazine Street by the historic 17th century Derry Walls. An entire smorgasbord of cogent, relevant and future-facing electronic music is on the cards for audiences. From the addictive post-punk stylings of Autumns to the the deep bass-forward electronics of Stain; from the dramatic, no-holds-barred techno of Drum Attic to the cinematic sound collages of The Fully Automatic Model; the mesmerisingly-diverse dance music selections of Derry’s Andrew Devine to the jacked-up electro of Zequenx; there’s something over the course of the two-day program to satiate even the most picky of electronic music aficionados.
