A quick line about the Indian Electronica Festival here in Toronto this past Friday:

The event was fantastic and mid-way through the night I realized that last year we actually threw the Festival *on the very same night!* - Funny then to see how much has happened in just 1 year and what strides both the Festival and http://www.indianelectronica.com have taken in that time.
The whole shindig wouldn't have happened if it weren't for all of the wonderful people involved - thanks to Anuj, Lori, Shaun, Nik, Sujit, Tariq and everyone else whose names elude me at the moment! more »
