DEE EN Saturn Return Tour with Arpan

DEE EN, an alternative act was founded in New Delhi by Saurav, Aditya, and Ashrey. Their

independently released debut EPs, "Whoopsie Daisy" and "Poppin’," were admired for their

dream-like ambiance, ‘timeless’ essence, and fresh arrangements, and supported by

publications such as Rolling Stones India, Red Bull, and Wild City.

Following their initial success, DEE EN toured extensively throughout India, performing

at major festivals in the country such as Magnetic Fields Festival, NH7 Weekender, Ziro

Festival of Music, and Orange Festival. They have shared stages with international acts

like Garden City Movement, Chet Faker, Kokoroko, Opeth, Kodaline, Mono and Madu

Sidiki Diabate.

"Saturn Return," DEE EN's third record, represents the culmination of seeds planted three

years ago. It features their highest number of collaborations with local artists, including

Sijya, Rohit Gupta from Peter Cat Recording Co, and Arpan Kumar from Green Park.

Leading up to the release, DEE EN launched the single "Darling," accompanied by a dance

video that featured on Apple Music’s editorial playlist “Breaking Indian Independent.” The

follow-up single, "Troglodyte," debuted on Rinse FM’s 'The B-Side of India' and was

featured in Wildcity's Singled Out (Q1 2024).

Mixmag Asia praised Saturn Return for "carving a niche with their unique blend of lo-fi

haze and psychedelic soundscapes." Additional acclaim came from Homegrown, Rolling

Stone India, and The Indian Music Diaries, which noted, "DEE EN, with its strong artistic

language and fearless creation, are a promising inspiration for musicians to look towards."

Arpan Kumar is the songwriter/guitarist of New Delhi-based band Green Park. They released their debut album “Newly Aged” in March 2024 and embarked on a month-long tour of the country spanning 10 cities to promote the album.

His writing style is akin to a private journal set to a diverse range of music. He loves exploring the inner workings of the mind, with his songs embodying different emotions from fear and uncertainty to joy and excitement.
