EPIC!
Peace and love was the anthem last night at the O2 Park in Chaguaramas during the Sunset Festival when soca artistes Machel Montano and Bunji Garlin shared the stage for for the first time ever with EDM DJs Major Lazer and Skrillex. As the leaders in the industry, it was a meeting that fans had been wanting for years, but it finally materialized thanks to Major Lazer's Diplo who asked the crowd if they wanted to see both men on one stage.
2014 started with Machel revealing that he wanted to share the stage with Garlin, however his invitation went unanswered, leaving many to believe there was bad blood between the two powerhouses.
But after last night, many soca lovers were left awed, and hopeful that as we go into a new year an HD-Viking team up may be on the horizon after all.
Montano even took it a step further during his performance, calling other soca artistes Kes, MX Prime, Olatunji and Fayann Lyons to the stage as they fused soca with electronic dance music. Bunji did his signature freestyle, while Machel teased several new songs and even sang the Viking's Differentology leaving fans in a frenzy.
