Ascend into the weekend with Zouk Genting's very own version of a hilltop extravaganza: the Weekender! Featuring 3 electrifying shows across 2 venues, with 5 global DJs, 20 hours of pulsating music, and 13 local talents.
Here's looking at what they've got on offer this Weekender
Zouk Genting presents Ajunadeep featuring Simon Doty, Cri (DJ Set), Ipeiqi and Meliha this 19 April 2024
The world renowned Anjunadeep brand debuts in Malaysia, landing at Zouk Genting with a star-studded lineup in tow. Featuring an Anjundeep label artist roster comprising CRi, IPeiqi, Simon Doty and our very own Meliha, the label is excited to spend their first time in Malaysia grooving the night away up in the highlands. The London-based record label founded in 2005 by Above & Beyond, and their manager James Grant, began life as an outlet for records from the deeper, more progressive end of Above & Beyond’s club sets. Today, this deeper side of the Anjuna label family is one of dance music’s most respected imprints with over 600 releases spanning melodic house, electronic, ambient and techno, earning itself a fiercely loyal following around the globe.
Simon Doty’s origins from Canada’s Western wilderness to a college basketball shooting guard may seem like an unlikely path for the emergence of a finely tuned electronic artist. After years mastering his sound and ascending the ranks of the underground circuit, Doty’s breakthrough year is unfolding with his debut LP ‘Universal Language’ on Anjunadeep, supported by a world tour featuring over 60 dates. Characterized by gritty analog synthesis, evocative melodies, and powerful driving grooves; his signature sound has earned Simon a bonafide spot among the industry’s most respected producers.
Kuala Lumpur based singer-songwriter Meliha has steadily and intrepidly strengthened the pillars that hold a career in music together. Already with a stack of releases on the Anjunadeep catalogue since at least 2018, her style behind the decks is solid and dreamy, with deep, indie and deep tech influences, and a touch of electronica and progressive vibes.
CRi's unique blend of high-energy basslines, dreamy multi-lingual vocals and upbeat melodies has made him a household name in his hometown of Montréal. The Quebecois live act and producer is on the brink of a major international breakthrough into the world of indie-electronic music.
China's rising star IPeiqi's passion lies with melodic house, techno, and drum'n'bass genres. He has released a few tracks at Anjunadeep, Monstercat and other labels. He is always in pursuit of soulful and beautiful melodies and strive to create something fresh and new.
