After mesmorising performances of day 2, Sunburn Goa 2015’s day 3 brought the madness with Martin Garrix, Marlo, Aly & Fila, SHFT, Seth Troxler and many more! The Psy stage featured Iboga Label and Ray-Ban’s Never Hide Sounds stage was curated by Krunk for the day 3.
‘Empire of the Sun‘ was set to be headlined by the sensational Martin Garrix while Julian Jordan, Bassjackers, Shaan and Justin Mylo played as the supporting acts. Opened by Hizkia’s warm up set, mainstage witnessed Justin Mylo‘s excellent set full of fresh bass house and future house tunes. After Justin Mylo, Sunburn’s resident DJ Shaan took to the stage with his fresh visuals and his new track ‘Hooyah‘. Having already played a Bangin’ set on the Spinnin’ stage the previous day, Bassjackers brought their jacking set to the mainstage, only bigger and better. ‘Empire of The Sun’ started to get crowded by 6:30 only, with people getting ready and taking their spot in the front for the storm that was about to hit by the end of the day. At the same time, it was clear that the amount of people turning up for the day was going to be significantly more than the previous day.

Julian Jordan played an amazing set appropriate to the set timing. The crowd was surely having a great time jumping and shouting. Martin Garrix took to the mainstage with an intro mix of his break out single ‘Animals‘ on piano and crowd couldn’t hold its emotions. With state of the art visuals, Martin Garrix provided an awesome experience. Alongside his absolute hit tracks like ‘Tremor‘, ‘Turn Up The Speakers‘ and ‘Gold Skies‘, he also dropped his Hardwell collaboration “Music Box” and a couple of IDs, one of which is in collaboration with Justin Mylo. “Reload w/ Project T” and “Alesso – Cool w/ Tremor” were two of the mashups which brought out the most of the crowd’s energy. For the third day in a row, the crowd sang “Lean On” even louder than the previous day with jam packed from front of the stage to the end of the standing area up the hill. While Martin Garrix brought some future bass taste in his set with Marshmello’s remix of Adele’s viral single ‘Hello‘, he ended the set by playing his highly emotional single “Forbidden Voices” alongside an acapella of Galantis’ Runaway (U & I)’. Interacting with the crowd through the live footage on the LED walls, Martin Garrix made sure to provide a heart warming connection and the crowd couldn’t be happier!
The Gionee stage which previously featured Revealed and Spinnin‘ stages, had a new story to tell on the day 3 of Sunburn Goa. With Ankur Sood‘s excellent opening set, the stage came to life. The consecutive sets by Sequ3l and Clement build the energy for Marlo to take over. Marlo’s astonishing trance set gave the proper Trance feels to the crowd with a mix of classics and new tunes. Marlo ended his set with ‘Dreamers’ and the absence of Jano was never so painful during his set. After Marlo, the Egyptian lords of Uplifting Trance, Aly & Fila took over with their signature sounds. The crowd surfed the waves of emotional breakdowns and the joyous uplifting throughout their set. One of the highlights were Fadi dropping a pulsating rendition of Eric Prydz‘s ‘Opus‘. That moment is just out of the scope to be described in words. To close the stage for the day, homegrown talent, the “Bass Raja”, Nucleya was set to raise the bar from his killer set the previous day. Closing the day back to back for the second time, Nucleya dropped bass heavy bombs from his recent album ‘Bassrani’ mixed with some of the most enjoyable acapellas. As we all know, Nucleya comes with a guarantee. The guarantee of destruction by low frequency vibrations!
The Techno and Deep House tent was alive from the very start as Seth Troxler was to headline alongside the supporting acts like SHFT, Priyanjana, Diatonik and more! The crowd was especially excited for the two hour set of Seth Troxler and boy he delivered up to the expectations! The psy stage featured the record label, Iboga, with the artist like Vini Vici, Gaudium, Sideform, Indra J, Jay Ramani and more! The psy lovers were spotted having a great time with quality Psy music. The Never Hide Sounds stage curated by Krunk for day 3 featured the artists like Sam Binga, EZ Riser, Sleepwalkere and more! The poeple were raging with the utmost enegy on the bass tunes.
In the other attractions, the fire show on the sunset hill and Vinyl Ambulence were among people’s favourite get away palces. It was fun watching poeple Bungee jumping and chilling on the hammocks. After the day closed with smashing sets, the huge crowd was spotted shouting “Heyyy… ohhhh” in unison with huge smiles on their faces. Everyone left the premises with the memories for life!
We are ready for the final day of Sunburn Goa 2015 with David Guetta, KSHMR, Sartek, Sydney Samson, Grain and more. See you there!
