The longest-running Bollywood Halloween party in the world is a Portland original, a wild dance party celebrating twelve years of raucous costumed merriment hosted by DJ Anjali and The Incredible Kid. This year features the sensory assault of five walls of Bollywood Horror visuals by Micah Schmelzer curated from Anjali’s collection of vintage and contemporary South Asian horror films.

The centerpiece of every Bollywood Horror is the highly entertaining costume contest hosted by Anjali with fabulous prizes from rad local businesses for the best costumes. Featuring only the wickedest beats from the subcontinent: cower at the thundering dhols, shiver at the piercing wails of Bollywood divas.

Despite rocking Portland dance floors for more than 14 years with Bollywood selections, it was not until 2008 that DJ Anjali & The Incredible Kid founded a party devoted exclusively to Hindi film songs. Bollywood film music is the one music that unites all of South Asia, and increasingly, the world. Hindi-language film songs are the only Indian songs whose popularity crosses every state and national border in South Asia, and from Russia to Africa, South America to China, Bollywood’s reach and popularity continue to grow. Portlanders can now get their Bollywood fix through Netflix, or through the occasional new release screened at Century Clackamas Town Center. For those new to Bollywood, or lifetime filmi lovers, Filmistan is the one party where Portlanders can get an unadulterated taste of Anjali & The Kid’s favorite Bollywood dance floor Molotovs. With a Bollywood soundtrack collection that includes the results of many hours spent in Mumbai’s Chor Bazaar, and the purchase of some amazing private collections, who knows what might end up on the duo’s platters? From vintage Bollywood rock’n’roll, to Bollywood funk and disco, up to today’s pastiches of techno, hip-hop, and moombahton, it’s all in the mix at Filmistan.

For the last six years my dance has captivated my life and has become something of sacred dedication. I first discovered belly dance in Boston at the age of 17. It was love at first sight. As a male belly dancer I am forced to deal with boundaries of gender in a predominately female dance. Playing with the fluidity of harsh and delicate movement. I have performed, organized and helped to establish the fusion belly dance genre in the Greater Boston area. I have both produced and organized events in and across New England. In my six years of training I have had the privilege to perform at venues across the country. I recently moved to Portland, OR to study under Rachel Brice at Datura Studio. I would like to thank all of my lovely teachers for their support and wisdom.

DJ Anjali and The Incredible Kid have spent more than fifteen years igniting dance floors with cutting edge music not limited by borders or language. They host the longest-running Bhangra and Bollywood party on the West Coast (ANDAZ), co-founded the Pacific Northwest’s first Global Bass dance party (ATLAS, 10 year run at Holocene) and host two weekly radio shows on XRAY.FM and KBOO.FM. Few DJs can be said to have changed the sound of their city but that is exactly what DJ Anjali and The Incredible Kid have accomplished since they first introduced Portland, Oregon nightclub audiences to the many varied sounds of Global Bass at a raucous New Year’s Eve debut in 2000. In addition to their monthly ANDAZ, they also host TROPITAAL! A Desi Latino Soundclash.

They are most known for incinerating dance floors with the heavy dance floor artillery of South Asia, but the duo scour the globe for any hard-hitting music that combines local music traditions with window-rattling production. Anjali and The Kid regularly perform at festivals including five sets at the Sasquatch! Music Festival tenth anniversary where they headlined the dance tent opening night. They have performed at festivals such as Decibel, MusicfestNW, PICA’s TBA Festival, Vancouver International Bhangra Celebration, Beloved, What The Festival, Photosynthesis, Soul’d Out Music Festival, Portland State of Mind, Fairytale Music Festival, Kaleidoscope, Vancouver Queer Film Festival & Portland International Film Festival to name a few.

In the deep vein filled tropical jungles of each our hearts lies the frenetic rhythm of Cumbia, music of the Southern American Hemisphere that has roots cast centuries deep and continents wide. Orquestra Pacifico Tropical have in their brief explosive tenure taken the addictive rhythms of Cumbia and accomplished what musicians across continents and generations have done, bringing crowds in the clubs and forests of the Pacific Northwest into a blistering dance frenzy. Live is where you will hear the ecstatic thump, rumble and sheer brilliance of experiencing the racing rhythms of Coastal Colombia side by side with the psychedelic guitar exploration of the the Peruvian rainforest. Always respecting those who came and innovated before them while forging their own uniquely Portland stamp on the music. Eleven friends brought together in the spirit of capturing and breathing new life into varieties of Cumbia with an arsenal of percussion, woodwinds, horns and guitars.

Orquestra Pacifico Tropical’s wall of sound is dedicated to expanding the music of Central and South America to the people and dance floors of the Pacific Northwest.
