Coachella 2025 was nothing short of a cultural revolution, and much of that magic came from an electrifying performance by Indo Warehouse — a New York-based South Asian DJ duo comprising Kunal Merchant and Armaan Gupta (aka Kahani). Their fusion of traditional Indian sounds with house music not only brought the crowd to life but also redefined what representation on a global stage can look like.
Taking the stage on April 12, Indo Warehouse delivered what fans are now calling a “sonic explosion” of Indo-house music, skillfully layering pulsing Western beats with Indian rhythms. From Garba twirls to Bhangra footwork, the performance transformed the desert into what fans aptly dubbed “IndoChella.”
“With Garba and Bhangra on the global stage, Indo Warehouse stole the show in a celebration that was as cultural as it was electric,” read the article by Hindustan Times. The duo’s set wasn’t just a musical act — it was a tribute to their roots and a full-on cultural experience.
Indo Warehouse themselves took to Instagram to reflect, posting: “From our roots to the desert — Coachella Weekend 1 was more than a show, it was a statement. Thank you for feeling every beat with us. The journey continues.” Indo Warehouse has etched their mark on Coachella history, not just as artists, but as cultural ambassadors leading the charge in a global desi movement. (Moneycontrol.com)
