Kadin brings the heat for the first-ever Mixmag Lab Dhaka
A high-energy mix of dancehall, hip hop, house and Bengali rhythms sets the tone for the series' debut in Bangladesh
The video from The Mixmag LAB Dhaka drops today, highlighting a standout set from local favourite Kadin.
Organised by Mixmag Asia alongside Dhaka’s Bhai Bhai Productions and Be Here Now, the event marked the series' first-ever edition in the Bangladeshi capital, spotlighting the city’s thriving scene and supportive community.
Be Here Now and Bhai Bhai Productions have long championed homegrown talent, paving the way for a new wave of artists to shape their sound and reach wider audiences.
Following dynamic warm-up sets from OMDG and Munasib, Kadin took the stage with a no-holds-barred performance packed with dancehall, hip hop, house, and raw energy from start to finish.

His set doubled as a homecoming. Having honed his craft across New York and Canada, he returned to Dhaka and brought the heat with every bass drop and vocal flip.
Kadin's sound—rooted in electronic beats and layered with Bengali samples—had the crowd moving from the first drop, and the video shows exactly how it went down.
