Global festival giant DGTL announces its much-awaited return to India this December. Alongside international heavyweight headliners like Solomun and Maribou State, the immersive, audio-visual weekend experience will also champion some of India’s most exciting local talent, across a unique two-city edition.
Taking place across New Delhi (December 9th & 10th) and Mumbai (December 10th & 11th), DGTL India brings impressive art installations, show-stopping lighting and stage designs, conceptual showcases, vital sustainability initiatives and incredible music acts, resulting in a superior dancefloor experience.
Earlier this year, DGTL revealed its first wave artist line-up of headliners including multiple-award winning artist and Diynamic label boss Solomun, making his India debut and set to be one of the highlights of the festival.
Maribou State’s unique and compelling sounds, a deeply soulful marriage of the organic and the synthetic, will prove another DGTL India stand-out, as will SPFDJ, whose high-tempo sound explores strains of techno, acid, hardcore and trance. Italian maestro Toto Chiavetta and duo Giolì & Assia will bring their respective blends of house, indie, and pop, while Likwid and Ana Lilia, no strangers to the burgeoning techno scene in India, step up for a very special B2B. Having played at numerous domestic and international locations and festivals, Likwid and Ana Lilia will be a surefire treat with their brands of fast and furious techno.
DGTL India’s highly-anticipated second wave artist line-up adds to the international energy. Key Serbian music star Tijana T joins globally renowned Iranian-American house and techno legend Dubfire. From Amsterdam, Lee-Ann Roberts promises a timeless blend of soundbites from the past, present and future of music, with fellow Dutch act Ki/ Ki bringing a sound realm that is both futuristic and nostalgic. Copenhagen-based Denis Horvat’s signature melodic sounds sit alongside Colyn, whose journey between time and space leads through to the ever-exploratory and experimental Blawan.
In addition to the international line-up are Indian acts recognised for their experimental soundscapes. Music titan and powerhouse of electronic music BLOT!; Anyasa, whose authentic blend of traditional Indian and electronic sounds moves dancefloors; Sequ3l — deeply involved in the local dance music scene for over a decade with his signature progressive house and deep techno sounds; Deep Brown, whose wide-ranging smooth mixes have kept audiences on their toes for over a decade; alongside a host of other talented artists such as Sindhi Curry, Bahaar, Nida, Amaya etc.
Ellen Evers – Festival Director of DGTL shares, “We are looking very forward to continuing our partnership with the DGTL India team. After a successful first weekender in Bengaluru in 2020, it was unfortunate we had to put our plans on ice for more than two years. But I am sure we will make this be forgotten in the blink of an eye with this year’s double edition in New Delhi and Mumbai.”
