StarDream Cruises Debuts ‘Seas the Beats’: A Cross-Cultural Music Cruise Experience Sailing from Singapore and India
SINGAPORE / MUMBAI – StarDream Cruises is revolutionizing the high seas this August with the debut of ‘Seas the Beats’, a groundbreaking, music-fueled cruise event that blends international culture, live DJ performances, and a high-energy dance party aboard the luxurious Genting Dream. Sailing between Singapore and India, this immersive voyage will offer guests a one-of-a-kind experience where the journey becomes the main event.
Taking experiential cruising to an entirely new level, “Seas the Beats” merges the magnetic pull of live entertainment with the freedom of open waters. This inaugural edition will feature a first-of-its-kind DJ battle between two acclaimed artists from the region: DJ Rink from India and DJ Epimaco from Singapore. The high-octane showdown aims to electrify audiences with dueling beats, live audience engagement, and a multicultural showcase unlike anything seen on a cruise before.
🎶 The First DJ Face-Off at Sea: India vs. Singapore
Set on the sparkling waters of Southeast Asia, ‘Seas the Beats’ promises to be a multi-sensory spectacle. The spotlight event is a back-to-back DJ face-off where guests become the ultimate judges. DJ Rink, known for her energetic Bollywood-electronic fusion, will take on DJ Epimaco, whose signature blend of progressive house and club anthems captures Singapore’s nightlife culture.
This isn’t just a performance—it’s an interactive musical journey. Cruisers will vote for their favorite artist in real-time, while live dancers and choreographed flash mobs add to the excitement. The music will be synced with lighting effects, stage visuals, and surprise party elements, creating a festival-style atmosphere on deck.
🌏 A Celebration of Music, Culture, and Freedom
With its fusion of cultures, “Seas the Beats” stands out as a symbolic bridge between Singapore and India, two of Asia’s most vibrant cultural powerhouses. The curated music program is designed to appeal to international guests while celebrating regional flair. From EDM and trance to Hindi remixes and Asian club hits, the musical diversity ensures every traveler finds their groove.
According to StarDream Cruises, this event is part of its larger strategy to modernize cruising by appealing to younger demographics and music lovers seeking immersive, lifestyle-driven voyages.
“We wanted to create something that transforms the entire cruise into a destination itself,” said a StarDream spokesperson. “Guests won’t just be traveling—they’ll be dancing, connecting, and experiencing culture in motion.”
🚢 More Than Just a Party: A Full-Spectrum Cruise Experience
Beyond the music, guests aboard the Genting Dream can enjoy world-class amenities, from international dining to onboard spas, lounges, and shopping. “Seas the Beats” will also feature music-themed food and beverage pairings, from Asian fusion cocktails to late-night DJ bites, creating a cohesive entertainment and dining journey.
As the night progresses, the event reaches its climax with a grand finale dual-DJ set, where both Rink and Epimaco perform together in a synergistic sonic explosion.
