MADBOY, the solo Electronic project of Imaad Shah, is based out of Mumbai, India. The Electro-Soul inspired sound and Live show uses elements of high energy dance music and places it in the context of old school Funk and Soul influences- with live guitar and synthesizers. Madboy is one half of popular Electro-Funk duo Madboy/Mink - This project is his playground as a producer, with touches of Acid, Disco, Hip hop instrumentals, genre-defying electronic music, his trademark vocals, guitar and dense synth-laden soundscapes.

It explores the states of being asleep and being awake using synthesizers, surreal lyrics, hip hop beats and soul inspired vocals.
