Hitting 25+ states this fall, Safe In Sound is a traveling festival with some of the biggest artists in EDM. For somewhere around $25.00, you can see Borgore and a number of other very talented supporting artists. I attended Safe in Sound Indianapolis, and it was simply everything I expected and more.
To start off the night Etc!Etc! dropped lots of heavy bass, which is what the whole night was about. The event took place at downtown Indy’s recent hotspot for electronic shows, The Pavillion at Pan Am. The place has a warehouse feel to it with a very underground rave atmosphere. With a show like Safe in Sound, you know the whole crowd is there for a bass filled night.
Following Etc!Etc! was the one and only Terravita. He complemented the heavy bass and old school dubstep that Etc!Etc! brought, and also threw in some popular classics including “Drop Like an Earthquake” with his own twist on it. He was a crowd pleaser as he brought a dubstep remix of Ookay’s “Thief” and even incorporated some Kanye West into his set making it very diverse. He ended his set leaving everyone wanting more with the addition of an unreleased collaboration with Adventure Club.
Next, Zomboy and Borgore were well worth the wait. I constantly found myself head banging without even noticing. Zomboy has the most contagious stage presence that had the crowd constantly hype and wanting more. Borgore threw constant bangers including Knife Party’s “Centipede” that would catch you very off guard. He played a long set that went very late, bringing out all of the creatures of the night that you usually don’t get to see as most shows in Indy don’t go past midnight. The people, the venue, and most importantly the music, brought out the best in Indy’s electronic scene and it made me feel really at home and definitely safe in sound!
