MISHA x VATHAN curates and creates platforms that celebrate and showcase the rich diversity of South Asian cultural heritage. They take you through a soundscape where South Asian sounds merge seamlessly with electronic music styles such as Afrobeat, Amapiano, house and techno, making you dance and sweat!
MISHA was born and raised in Norway with roots from Punjab, India, while VATHAN was born and raised in Oslo with Tamil roots. Together they curate Salty Mango at Baba Bar in Oslo, a one of kind experience that begins with art exhibitions by South Asian artists before turning into a club night later in the evening.
DJ legend Olle Abstract has been setting the tone for the Norwegian club scene since the early 1990s. He started his career in local radio with Tommy Tee in the 80s and for 14 years he hosted the program "Abstract" on NRK P3, where he sought to inform listeners about the best in house, techno and disco - a task he now continues on his own podcast "LYD". As a DJ, he boasts a versatility that few other Norwegian DJs can match. He plays his way playfully through cosmic space disco, polyrhythmic afrobeats, acidic acid and all kinds of forms/variants of house, techno and disco.
