Malaysia's largest water and music festival, Out Of The World Music Festival (OOTW), has just announced the first phase of international artistes performing at its upcoming festival this January

Slated to be held from 19 to 21 January 2024 at KL Base Sungai Besi, the second edition of this large-scale water and music festival is set to make a bigger splash, especially with its latest lineup announcement.

The international artistes announced include Steve Aoki, James Hype, and Nervo.

Steve Aoki has long been a mainstay of the global electronic scene, known for his his spellbinding, energetic shows. He is a producer, DJ, record label owner, mental health advocate, and philanthropist. This marks the first time he'll be back in Malaysia since almost a decade.

As for James Hype, he is one of the names that has been on everyone's lips since bursting onto the scene a few years ago. His videos showcasing his technical wizardry on the decks has made him a viral and sought after music festival act. This will be his Malaysian debut and one of his first ever festival appearances in Southeast Asia!

Lastly, Nervo is no stranger to the scene having graced superclubs and festivals in Malaysia for over a decade now. The two sisters bring excitement, energy, and fun to their sets all over the world. It is no wonder they remain in the Top 50 DJs in worldwide polls every year.

To put things into perspective, OOTW 2.0 is bringing in three Top 100 artistes (based on DJ Mag Top 100 2023), lighting up the already-much-anticipated music festival's return

That's not all, 'cause this is just the first phase, with many more artistes to be announced across the next few weeks, woah!

So far, OOTW 2.0 has already caused quite a splash by announcing some of Malaysia's top acts like DJ Blink (with his signature high energy sounds), Cherry Bomb (the all female trio that's been making huge waves in the techno scene), Chukiess and Whackboi (KL's favourite hard dance duo), and many more acts.

Still not sure what to expect? OOTW 2.0 will feature almost 50 live and DJ acts across three days and over two stages!

Add to that the largest inflatable water park in Malaysia, a curated food and beverage village, as well as many more experiential activities, OOTW 2.0 is set to raise the standards of music festivals locally and internationally.

According to OOTW founder Lens Chan, the vision is to put Malaysia on the map for international music festival experiences
