Day 1
World electronic group Mantravine brought the good vibes with the first performance of the festival on the Main Stage, followed by Thailand favourite Paradise Bangkok Molam International Band, who took the stage by storm. Meanwhile on Easy Street, Singapore’s own viral internet sensation Preetipls amped up the crowd together with talented lyricist and hip hop artist Subhas. Local hip-hop collective Mediocre Haircut Crew showcased their honest lyrics and genre-bending rhythms, followed by a vibrant set by Scottish beatmaker DJ Shellsuit and Singapore-based musician Ridz. Closing out the Main Stage performances, Los Angeles-based R&B superstar YUNA took things to the next level with her lithe vocals and enthralling performance.

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
