about
Nescafé Basement is a Pakistani music television series which features live studio-recorded music performances by underground artists. The show is produced by Nescafé. The artists are recruited and mentored by Xulfi, who is also the music producer of the show. The first song released from Nescafé Basement was a cover of Sajjad Ali's "Larri Adda". Season 1 In September 2012, the brand went around college campuses looking for young, exceptionally talented, but unknown musicians who could sing and play a variety of instruments. The 15 best musicians were then mentored by Xulfi from the band Call. Season 2 Out of 1,253 young artists who auditioned (compared to only 98 for the first season), Xulfi selected 19 (whereas 14 were selected last season) from major cities across the country.[3] Nescafe Basement 2 had eight weekly episodes, each showcasing two songs with behind-the-scenes documentaries that highlight the journey of hidden musical prodigies. Apart from television broadcasts, the show will also have a digital component that includes its website, Facebook page, and Twitter.
