Bengaluru, India – September 18, 2026 – The vibrant pulse of Bengaluru’s music scene is set to throb with an electrifying energy as Sushil Ghunawat, globally recognized as the Bollytech DJ phenomenon Trapperx, brings his highly anticipated "All Black Experience" to the city. This exclusive event, demanding a sophisticated all-black dress code, marks a triumphant return for Trapperx after a whirlwind international tour that captivated audiences across Australia, New Zealand, and Southeast Asia. For the artist, the Bengaluru stop is more than just another gig; it’s a homecoming, a city that holds a special place in his journey from an aspiring gym trainer to an internationally acclaimed electronic music artist.
Trapperx’s meteoric rise is a testament to his innovative spirit and unwavering dedication to carving a unique niche in the global music landscape. He stands as a pioneering Indian Bollytech DJ, achieving the remarkable feat of being featured on the iconic Times Square billboards in New York without the backing of a major record label. This achievement underscores his commitment to elevating Indian electronic music onto the world stage, a mission that began with humble beginnings in Jaipur.
The Genesis of a Bollytech Visionary
Sushil Ghunawat’s path to becoming Trapperx is a compelling narrative of passion, perseverance, and a keen understanding of evolving musical tastes. For over a decade, he honed his craft, not only in the studio but also by imparting his knowledge as a music educator at an academy. His early career saw him sharing stages with esteemed Indian artists such as Shankar Mahadevan, Atif Aslam, and Jubin Nautiyal. These collaborations were instrumental in bridging the perceived chasm between classical and mainstream Indian music, infusing them with a contemporary electronic sensibility that resonated with a new generation of listeners.
The genesis of Trapperx as a musical identity was serendipitous, rooted in the burgeoning power of social media. Ghunawat’s initial viral reels, which quickly popularized the name "Trapperx," were, in fact, filmed in Bengaluru. This city, with its dynamic and receptive audience, played a crucial role in nurturing his nascent career.
"The first few viral reels that popularized the name Trapperx were shot in Bengaluru," Sushil shares, reflecting on the city’s pivotal role. "I was fascinated with techno music, but it didn’t have a great fan base a couple of years ago. I decided to take original Bollywood tracks that people enjoyed singing along to, and mix them with New Age techno tracks." This simple yet profound idea formed the bedrock of Bollytech, a genre that marries the nostalgic familiarity of Bollywood melodies with the driving, contemporary beats of electronic music.
From Viral Reels to Global Acclaim: The Bollytech Revolution
Trapperx’s innovative approach to music creation quickly gained traction. He meticulously curated and remixed iconic Bollywood songs, injecting them with the infectious energy of techno and other electronic subgenres. This fusion proved to be a masterstroke, appealing to a diverse demographic. The emotional resonance of classic Bollywood tracks, combined with modern, danceable rhythms, created a unique sonic experience that captivated listeners.
"A mashup of ‘Kaho na Kaho’ and ‘Black Dress’ brought me a lot of love and support," he recalls, highlighting a particular track that became a watershed moment in his career. This track, like many others in his repertoire, demonstrated his innate ability to identify beloved melodies and reimagine them in a fresh, exciting context. Over time, his edits and original tracks were embraced by club owners and music enthusiasts alike, a testament to their widespread appeal.
His international foray has been nothing short of spectacular. In the past two months alone, Trapperx has graced stages in over seven countries, experiencing what he describes as a "highly enthusiastic" response. This global reception validates his vision of bringing a distinctly Indian flavor to the international electronic music scene. He notes a significant shift in India’s reception to Bollytech music, with GenZ embracing it wholeheartedly. "Listening to a fresh version of a classic from their childhood has led to older audiences enjoying my work as well," he observes. "I believe, Bollytech is the next sound from India’s live music industry."
Bengaluru: A City of Unwavering Support
Bengaluru holds a particularly significant place in Trapperx’s journey. The city’s discerning audience, known for its appreciation of diverse musical genres, has consistently shown immense support for his innovative sound. "Bengaluru has been my biggest supporter; the energy here is amazing," Sushil states with genuine warmth. "The people love me and my music, and it is one of the cities I love returning to." This mutual affection forms the emotional core of his return, transforming a professional engagement into a celebration of shared musical passion.
The "All Black Experience" is more than just a concert; it’s an immersive event designed to create a memorable and stylish atmosphere. The prescribed all-black attire adds an element of sophistication and unity, allowing the music to take center stage. This thematic approach reflects Trapperx’s meticulous attention to detail in crafting every aspect of his performances.
The Future is Bollytech: An Ambitious Audio-Visual IP Project
Looking beyond the immediate tour, Trapperx is currently immersed in an ambitious audio-visual Intellectual Property (IP) project. This undertaking involves a diverse team of over 20 professionals from various global fields, a testament to the scale and scope of his artistic vision. Ghunawat describes it as "probably the biggest IP project ever used by any DJ," hinting at a groundbreaking fusion of music, visuals, and technology. The project is slated for a November release, with a subsequent nationwide launch across India. This initiative further solidifies Bollytech’s potential to evolve into a comprehensive entertainment experience, captivating audiences through multiple sensory dimensions.
