Mumbai, Oct 7th, 2013: One year after the unforgettable launch gig at Mehboob Studios that featured stellar acts and a packed house, PUMA and NH7 bring back all that’s great about music with PUMA Loves Vinyl – Get Your Kicks On on 26th October at Mackichan Hall in Chowpatty, Mumbai.
The renaissance of Analog in India has a fitting friend in the trendy Sportlifestyle brand PUMA, who continues to spread the love for Vinyl this year with a 2nd Limited Edition LP featuring the best names in EDM music production like Kohra, Sandunes, The Midival Punditz and Bass Foundation Roots. PUMA also opened up the 5th slot on the exclusive Vinyl to promising EDM music producers who could send in their entries for a shot at getting a spot on the coveted vinyl. The digital project (#putmeonvinyl) saw a number of high-quality submissions from producers around the country and ‘Prematron’ was chosen as the deserving winner. His track will be pressed on the Vinyl along with the other four.
The October 26th *free* gig will see the launch of the new Vinyl and a not-to-miss gig featuring EDM specialist turntablists like BASS Foundation Roots, DJ Uri, Angelo and Midival Punditz. There’s a whole lot more in store for the audience, though. #getyourkickson is a special feature this year, where the audience is encouraged to trade in their footwear for PUMA dancing kicks at the kicks exchange counter and dance the night away in their new shoes. Those who really bring their ‘old skool style’ to the floor will stand to win some sweet new PUMA Kicks, Vinyl sellers will be at the venue for all those collectors in the audience, and B-Boys will strut their stuff on the dance floor as well.
After the hugely popular Vinyl Cover Design Project 2012, PUMA gives talented designers an opportunity to design the LP this time around as well. The contest will be digitally led and artists are invited to tag their designs on Twitter, Facebook or Instagram with #covermeup or email their entries to [email protected] . The 3 best cover designs will be printed as the official LP covers with the artists’ names printed on them.
PUMA has partnered with NH7 – the largest platform for independent music in India – for PUMA Loves Vinyl. Entry to the gig is FREE. More information and online registration will soon be available onsocial.puma.com/communities/
