Also expect 3D holographic experiences to make it a dance fest to remember – A bird-like-shape emerged from wooden darkness, floating, dreaming and fluttering. Backlit by a bright glow of iridescent light, the undecipherable form wears a dazzling golden mask. Its long beak swooped down like an inverted horn and since then, people have referred to the mythical being simply as Claptone.
Playing in clubs worldwide, Claptone has served up plenty of stylish remixes of huge and influential artists like Depeche Mode, Disclosure, and more. Fans can look forward to the likes of “No Eyes”, “Stronger” and “Just a Ghost” when this illusive and incredible DJ spins the decks.
