The Oasis English Press had a chat with Gurnaman Kaur, the Coordinator of the Karaoke Club, regarding their role in the upcoming edition of Oasis.

Gurnaman stated that the club would conduct two events this Oasis, Silent Disco and Scrontro. The latter would be a DJ battle consisting of two rounds with a prize pool of INR 50,000.The preliminary round for Scrontro was conducted in Delhi, where they invited ten DJs for a four-hour event. She highlighted that this was a deviation from last year when the preliminary round was conducted online. She further added that the finals were to be held during Oasis and would be judged by an external judge brought in by the Department of Art, Design, and Publicity. She emphasised that in the weeks leading up to the fest, the club was mainly focused on the publicity and the logistics of conducting their events. 

She remarked that a significant challenge the Karaoke club faced was the lack of workforce, which had since been remedied by recruitments. Speaking of her experience as a Coordinator, Gurnaman emphasised that she enjoyed working for the fest and did not think of it as a burden. She explained that the club conducted regular jamming sessions, which served as a bonding experience between the seniors and the juniors. 

On a parting note, she urged everyone to come to the club’s events and have a good time.
