Question 3

Why should I consider Opium for my event? What unique experience does he bring?

Accepted Answer

Opium isn't just playing tracks; he's crafting a live soundscape. As his profile mentions, this is Siddharth Sharma's minimal progressive electronic project, and it's deeply inspired by the underground scenes in London and Berlin. The biggest thing? He performs using **hardware equipment only—no computers**. This makes his set feel organic, intuitive, and completely in-the-moment. He's a producer and sound engineer, which means he has a granular understanding of sound design. You're not just getting a DJ; you're getting a sound artist who builds an addictive, multi-dimensional atmosphere. It’s a sophisticated and intellectual vibe, perfect for an audience that truly appreciates electronic music.

Question 4

What makes Opium stand out from other DJs?

Accepted Answer

Two words: **Hardware Only.** In a world where most DJs use laptops, Opium’s commitment to a computer-free setup is a massive differentiator. It means his performance is a true live act, full of improvisation and raw energy. Beyond the gear, his background is key. He's not just a performer; he's a composer who also produces for the downtempo act Stereo Buddha. This dual experience gives his music incredible depth. He’s influenced by a really diverse range of artists like Minilogue, Deftones, and Opeth, which feeds into a sound that is uniquely his own. You're booking an artist with a distinct point of view, not just someone playing the hits.

Question 5

What kind of atmosphere does Opium's music create?

Accepted Answer

Think cool, sophisticated, and immersive. Opium's style is minimal progressive techno, so it's not about loud, flashy drops. Instead, he builds a steady, hypnotic groove that pulls you in. It’s the kind of music you'd hear in a chic Berlin club or at a high-end art gallery opening. The sound is clean, intelligent, and has a certain 'pulse' to it that keeps the energy flowing without being overwhelming. It's perfect for events where you want to create a modern, forward-thinking ambiance that encourages conversation and connection, all while being underpinned by a seriously cool soundtrack.

Question 6

Does Opium take song requests during his performance?

Accepted Answer

Given his unique performance style, Opium's sets are typically a curated journey of his original music and selections that fit his specific sound. Because he uses a hardware-only setup, he’s not just mixing tracks from a playlist; he's performing a live, cohesive piece of music. So, a traditional song request format doesn't really apply. However, it's always best to discuss the event's desired vibe and energy beforehand. He can certainly tailor the direction of his set to match the atmosphere you're looking to create, even if he doesn't take on-the-spot requests.

Question 7

What are the technical requirements to host an Opium performance?

Accepted Answer

This is a great question, and an important one. Since Opium performs exclusively with hardware synthesizers, drum machines, and sequencers, his technical needs are quite specific and different from a standard laptop DJ. A high-quality sound system with a good subwoofer is essential to properly convey the depth of his minimal tech music. He'll also need a sturdy table or console for his gear, along with specific power and audio connections. The exact requirements should be discussed in detail once you inquire. Ensuring the technical setup is correct is key to experiencing the full, organic sound he's known for.

Question 8

What's the typical price or fee range for booking Opium for an event?

Accepted Answer

The investment for booking Opium generally falls between **₹20,000 and ₹1,00,000**. Now, that's a range because the final price depends on a few key factors. We're talking about the type of event, how long you need him to perform, the location—travel and accommodation can be a factor—and the specific technical production required for his hardware setup.
