Dance music has been a cultural constant across the country for decades and Submerge along with Centre Point Entertainment Network (CPEN) are all set to raise the curtain on October 3 at Orchid Lake Resort from 3pm onwards.

The combination of top production quality equipment, sound, lighting and stage gear, coupled with the music, promise to make it a grand event.
Not to mention the comprehensive food and beverage section, where revellers can take a breather from all the energetic dancing.
Although Swedish DJ Albin Myers has never travelled to North East India, he expressed his excitement and said,”I’ve never travelled to the North East India before and I’m really excited to come there. I love to travel around India and hopefully I’ll get some spare time in my tour schedule to do some sightseeing.”
The Mighty Mohawk DJ, also shared his thoughts on the current EDM Scene and how the genre has grown and evolved over the years.
“EDM has gone from an underground culture to the biggest stages worldwide in less than a decade. The EDM style has become more pop oriented but it also has helped a lot of sub genres in dance music to become bigger,” he said.
The Passes for the dance and music festival can be obtained from Hotel Centre Point Police Bazar, Swish Cafe, Laitumkhrah and Cafe Shillong Laitumkhrah among others.
