BLAKC’s latest album Chemical Liaisons releases tomorrow! We’ve been sharing memories from the vault, this is the one on Control Alt Delete Pic 2-4: We’ve been fortunate to be part of CAD’s growth from humble beginnings to India’s largest crowdfunded music festival 🤯 Only love & respect for Rishu, Udups, Himanshu, 4/4 and the entire CAD community for pushing the boundaries and giving voice to the freshest sounds of the alternative scene! Pic 5: The Trinity 🖤 Pic 6: the legendary clicker that recorded 850 people at CAD 3 at Sitara Studios! Pic 7-10: BLAKC at CAD 11 at Roaring Farms 🤯 it’s like walking into a different world. Open spaces, multiple stages, beautiful production, camping, crazy F&B. All crowdfunded. Mindblowing. Thank you @photogaffa for the photos 🙏🏾 Super grateful to walk this journey with amazing people 🙏🏾 x———x———x———x———x———x———x A04S02 - Redefine from What Is Time Mixed & Mastered by @defgiant #chemical_liaisons #blakc #rock #band #mumbai #india #diy #OGAF

After some serious number crunching, hectic phone calls, negotiations we closed our PnL statements for CAD 13. Bottom line - we didn’t make money. Earnings were - INR 4,477,379 Spends were - INR 4,821,116 It’s not all doom and gloom though, we did have the highest number of online contributions, outstation bands, festival attendance and sales of any CAD ever. The “I give a fuck about the music I listen to” community is alive and kicking despite the pandemic induced lull. Unfortunately - the increase in spends did not keep pace with inflation and the costs of scaling up the infrastructure and facilities. Detailed accounts are up on the site too. Link is in our bio. This was the first time where we felt our audience grew beyond the ones who cared and reached out to the ones who came to check it out if this shit was for real (never had so many 1 Rs contributions). How do we strike that balance without being gatekeepers of a scene that belongs to no-one and everyone? One of the many questions we seek answers for. From a festival experience POV- we’ve come to a point where we are not going to scale back from the standards on offer. Which just means we just need to be smarter, quicker and a little more sensible when it comes to selecting dates and putting this show together. Thank you to all the contributors, attendees, our vendor partners and bands for your patience and cooperation we’ll take this on the chin and come back better, stronger and more efficient. All suggestions criticisms and questions more than welcome. Countdown to CAD 14 begins! ⏳🗓

Hometurf: The hip-hop stage for @ctrlaltdel8 at @roaringfarm Mumbai. The stage design was an extension of the festival language, pointing towards an ecosystem we built using flora/fauna and folklore motifs from Indian Graphic Design books. CAD has been a leading music movement in the country for over a decade and has contributed to laying the foundation for the media ecosystem. It was great to see the artists roar and perform in a space that feels like home to them. The idea while building this stage with the CAD team was to create an experience that allows the artists to raise their voice and ask the right questions! I think we can be really proud of the teams that put this all together. Big ups to the team @homeworkcoolkids , @fourbyfourexp , @i_m_carter @krypt.one and every artist that elevated this experience by doing what they do best. Thank you @greyoceanblues and @himanshuvaswani for believing in us and letting us pour our hearts into this. Here’s to many more bangers in future media movements 🏄🏽‍♀️🏄🏽‍♀️🏄🏽‍♀️.
