Reinforcing Singapore’s flourishing status in the global electronic music community, we’re now about to see another industry bigwig making moves in our city. Beatport is headed our way, and it’s affirming a special announcement with an extra special gig, organised in full force by Manifest.

As the world’s largest provider of electronic music online, Beatport has been an essential boon and weapon of choice for DJs since its launch in 2005. It’s since evolved with more recent manoeuvres in the Web3 space, unveiling a new platform called Beatport.io to connect fans with favourite artists via a next-gen digital marketplace. To support this, Beatport is riding Singapore’s Web3 hype wave that emerges during the F1 season, participating in TOKEN 2049 while partnering with blockchain network, Polkadot.

It's a big celebration for the music purveyors, and Manifest knows a thing or two about making mega impacts. In the promotion’s trusty mitts, this gig will be taking over Thugshop’s formidable MDLR space with a lineup of international headliners and homegrown selectors. Leading this ensemble is the always-welcomed comeback of Thailand’s techno queen Nakadia with her rampaging array of heavy-hitters, and UK’s Massano who’s been ascending the melodic techno echelons with a meteoric debut on Afterlife. Backed by the savvy combo of David Carollo (Sinestesia) and Erwin Linden (.KRATE), this event marks an industry milestone that catapults our Singapore scene into the global spotlight.

Beatport x Polkadot present Beatport.io in Singapore, 18 September 2024, 9pm-3am, MDLR, 62 Cecil Street, Singapore 049710. Get your tickets here. Follow Manifest for more information.
