A Review of Kaleido’s first concert
Kaleido: Music of the Future
It is not easy setting up a show two days before the date. Nor provides a promising turnout, but with the DJs of Kaleido: Duskus, Otang, and Klahrk, it is not hard to pack a venue – even the Undercroft.
With over 500,000 plays and 9,000 followers on Soundcloud, the collective have made movements in the Internet waters.
Thursday March 10th marks a significant night in Kaleido history. It would be the first time the collective would DJ in association with Smoke Radio’s Specialist Nights. In pursuit of Trap, Future Bass, and hip-hop influences, the presumption of drawing in a crowd is soon put to the test.
The line is like nothing you have ever seen. It is out the door. …show more content…
From the flyers scattered around the bar, it is evident the Commercial Music undergraduate is doing a two hour set, 10:00pm-12:00am.

Genre-junkies are segregated, but brought together in one night. Around 50 people come tumbling in, students from near and far. The bar is busy and people are amused and transfixed. It is a Thursday night at the Undercroft, it is packed, and people are actually dancing.
Klahrk, moniker of Ben Clarke, and Duskus, also known as Simon White, capture the monumental moment and continue to hype up the crowd with Marshmello’s, “Where are Ü”. It is 1:00am and there is an influx of students coming in. The energy screams community. The subculture everyone is taking part in reminds us that each of us have ownership to the music we listen to and praise every day.
It does not matter when you discovered Kaleido; this concept becomes irrelevant. The sentiment between the attendees is real and it is impossible to ignore the music. All that is left is the eager and thrill to be apart of something so big.
