Submerge is an Indian dance and clubbing scene founded in 2002 by MTV India VJ Nikhil Chinapa, with DJ Pearl,[1] Chinappa's wife, as a co-founder.
Submerge has been influential in the music and clubbing scene in India[2] by creating an alternative to the then existing music mainstream, playing music: techno, trance, house, progressive, psychedelic, tribal, electro and tech house sounds and unreleased or indie sounds. It is also host to many internationally renowned names in DJing and is planning[when?] to spread the formula all over India with big Indian and international names.
