Browncoat Artist Bio

Nawed Khan aka BrownCoat is one of the biggest names in the booming Dance music scene in India. A resident with Submerge, India’s biggest artist management agency and dance music promoter, Nawed has constantly stayed ahead of the slow paced music scene in India by acquiring and playing brand new tunes and almost impossible to obtain mixes of classics.

A regular feature in clubs around India and South East Asia, he’s one of the few DJs from India to have played across the globe having successfully performed across America, Asia, Australia , Africa, and Europe in a career spanning over 15 years. Nawed was chosen to be the opening act for Swedish House Mafia in India for their “One Last Tour” and has performed with international DJs like Tiesto, Zedd, Axwell, Paul Van Dyk, Wolfpack, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, Mark Knight, Alvaro, Aly & Fila, Roger Sanchez, Markus Schulz, Sander Van Doorn, Paolo Mojo, Gareth Emery, Mat Zo, Simon Dunmore, Norman Doray, Arno Cost, John Fleming, Pearl, Seven Lions, Benny Benassi, Gordon Edge and Pole Folder.

Nawed has distinguished himself as a producer partnering with Nikhil Chinapa to produce several soundtracks for the Indian movie industry and the alternate remix market. Nikhil and Nawed are amongst the first DJ­/Producers to have their work featured as part of a mainstream Indian movie. Together they also host extremely popular Electronic Dance Music radio shows called “Together” and “Crave” every weekend with support from the biggest international DJs and a massive following across India.
