Early Set with Mihir Lunia
OX7GEN 'An Ocean for Everyone' EP Launch
There's no innate skill involved in quality drum & bass production beyond a surge of all nighters and dying city lights. Mumbai based producer, OX7GEN (Aditya Ashok) gladly resided in the undertow, as a self taught producer & controller wizard with influences running deep - cue kingpins like Netsky, Danny Byrd and Logistics for the first wave; then expect a rising tide of original liquid/ambient drum & bass.

In a little over a year, Ashok has managed to make his presence felt by earning slots at nearly every major festival in the subcontinent. Right from the beaches of Goa's SUNBURN festival to the hills of Naukuchital's Escape Festival as well as Bacardi NH7 weekender, BASS Camp and many more. In the bargain, he's ended up supporting some of the biggest names in the international bass music scene including London Elektricity, KOAN Sound, Concord Dawn, Dub Phizix & Nymfo to name a few.

What you can expect? High-energy, delightfully fluid sets, that seamlessly take you through every emotion associated with bass heavy music. Every one of his sets is the result of meticulous planning, organic arrangements and above all—flawless execution. Every. Single. Time.

Your Chin
Your Chin is the solo project of Raxit Tewari, frontman of the Mumbai- based indie band Sky Rabbit. Raxit uses guitars, soft synths and computers layered with his mellow yet soothing vocals to produce a new brand of electronica and indie-pop. Your Chin blends a post-rock sensibility with electro-pop sounds that gives his seemingly irreverent urban poetic lyrics a joyful complexity. Think 'The Whitest Boy Alive' meets 'Julian Casablancas (The Strokes)' and you are half way there.

Your Chin's first self-titled EP, which released in June 2012, has been written, produced and recorded by Tewari himself. The EP has already won the support of the scene's dedicated fan base as well as rave reviews by music journalists. As Raxit describes the theme of his 4-track EP in his nonchalant dandy-esque manner "The EP has a vague theme of transport (like public transport).... there's something about the songs which makes you feel like the city is travelling with you."

Your Chin recently opened for Grammy winner Gotye at the Oz Fest event in Delhi at blueFROG. He has also performed at NH7 Weekender in Delhi and India Bike Week in Goa. One of his tracks – Fall Someplace has also been used in the promo for A Summer’s Day festival headlined by Norah Jones.

Paralights
Paralights is visceral music. Over 3 years of his existence as a producer in the Indian alternative scene, Ayan De merges emotive grooves with textural grit and glitch – cold and clinical instrumentation, shivering with emotional fervour and timbre alike. The project takes an indie colour live with Jash Reen and Suraj Manik joining the project and future releases.

The Musical Objective

At the same time, they seek to bring forth the thrill of live recordings and performances, giving audiences a taste of something they’ve never been privy to before.

Their aim is to create compositions that resonate with the youth of India and introduce them to a new sound that showcases the width of our musical landscape, by combining it with modern sounds and influences that they are familiar with.

                                                         BANDS
Rang
Rang is a versatile six-member Band from Mumbai performing a variety of genres, allowing them to converge into one unique spectrum of sound. Based in Mumbai since late 2008, they can broadly be classified as a Hindi Pop/Rock band. They perform a lot of their critically acclaimed originals, interfused with some trademark crowd thumping mainstream covers.

Rang’s music attempts to bridge the gap between the diverse genres of music and their melodies represent the modern day music lovers' interests melted with an Indian element. Very few bands have the vocal chemistry that Rang does, and their original lyrics have gained them repute from anyone who’s had a chance to experience their compositions. Overall, each member's unique musical background lends to Rang's sound, that richness and a spectrum which connects with the heart of any fan of great music.

Highway 61 (Pune)
Highway 61 is a “Sufi Ethnic” Rock band based out of Pune. Their music embodies “Music, Expression, Freedom” - a fusion of classic rock with Urdu/Hindi lyrics. The name 'Highway 61' is a metaphor for finding a road to freedom, with nothing but one’s own creativity as the compass. The music resounds with contemporary references and an informed understanding of the two-faced times we live in.

A cross-pollination initiative to breed emerging indie talent and bring the Indian indie music community together for a night of awesome.

The curators of awesome at NH7.in and Mumbai’s prime gig venue, the blueFROG, have joined forces to bring some of the best indie talent from across the country right to the Bay city for no cost other than your time (which will be totally worth it). This combined effort is known as The Scene.

NH7’s main goal in the creation of The Scene is to shine a light on bands you NEED to hear, and with the Blue Frog providing the ideal space, it hopes to be the ultimate indie night on Mumbai’s monthly gig calendar.

Apart from all the music on offer at The Scene, the Blue Frog will turn into a hub of indie cool and the ultimate scene hangout with loads of Indian indie band merchandise for sale on-site, and a chance to listen to some fantastic music and hobnob with some of the ultra-hip purveyors of The Scene.

Entry to The Scene is absolutely FREE and blueFROG will be running specials such as their famous Frog Quarters that will be available through the night.

The Scene relies on the involvement of the indie community without which there would be no scene. And to bolster that, NH7 is giving away some special goodies to the winners of The Scene’s design-a-poster contest.

To drum & bass fans the world over the names Calyx and TeeBee are synonymous with high quality, perfectly sculpted music. Just as Michelangelo discovered statues in blocks of stone, so Calyx and TeeBee discovered the essence of D&B locked away in studio equipment; always forward-thinking and packed with as much integrity and energy; their music has had an impact on the scene for over fifteen years.

While Calyx & TeeBee's first collaborations emerged in 2004, their history and friendship dates back to 1998 when they were introduced as label-mates of the legendary, Moving Shadow imprint. In the following years the two artists accumulated astounding solo back-catalogues of releases on a glittering array of D&B's most respected labels.

When Calyx and TeeBee finally decided it was time to work together in the studio, the first tracks they produced ('Follow The Leader' and 'Cyclone') were highly acclaimed by the music press. Both tracks featured on Calyx's debut album 'No Turning Back' and were picked up by Rockstar who used them as the soundtrack for a global TV campaign advertising the colossal 'Midnight Club' computer games series.

Following this huge joint success Calyx and TeeBee produced one of the landmark releases of 2006: 'The Quest' released on TeeBee's renowned Subtitles label. In the same year the pair also penned 'The Shape Of Things To Come' for Renegade Hardware's 10 year anniversary album before deciding to embark on the long journey of producing a collaborative album.
