Rave The Planet: My Berlin Performance
Playing for 300,000 people on the streets of Berlin stands as a career-defining moment. This gallery captures the raw energy of Rave The Planet, the technical setup, and the crowd that danced through the rain to keep the music alive.
This is the view from my console at Rave The Planet. Seeing a sea of 300,000 people stretching down the streets of Berlin, all united by music, was an emotional and unforgettable experience.
Even a downpour couldn't stop the energy in Berlin. This clip shows the crowd returning to dance in the rain, a testament to the power of techno to bring people together, no matter what.

Here I am announcing my return to Berlin for Rave The Planet. I explain the year's theme of dancing against disarmament, a cause I deeply believe in. Music should be a force for peace.

About Rave The Planet: Berlin's Biggest Dancefloor
The Berlin weather was unpredictable, and when the rain started falling, the parade floor emptied out. Watching the crowd filter back in and dance even harder in the rain made me realize that true techno energy is not about perfect conditions. It is about the connection between the DJ and the dancefloor, rain or shine.
Performing at Rave The Planet was more than just a gig. It was a statement about electronic music culture. When I played on the float alongside the Bootcamp Goa and 3is team, the technical requirements were intense. I rely on Pioneer DJ equipment like the CDJ-3000 and DJM-900 for a reason. These devices allow me to mix on three or four decks simultaneously, which is necessary when you are managing energy levels for a crowd of this magnitude.
My approach to these large-scale festival sets is consistent, whether I am in Berlin or back in India. I focus on layering and live remixing using hot cues and FX to keep the flow seamless. This technique allows me to adapt the set dynamically based on crowd stamina. If you are looking for a DJ who understands the difference between an opening warm-up and a peak-time main stage set, that is exactly what I bring to the booth. My performance style is rooted in driving techno and melodic house, but the goal remains the same: a shared journey from the first track to the last.
