| Story | Desperados Bass Drop is the world’s first festival in zero-gravity making it an historic part of music culture. More than just a party, it revealed what happens when you drop the bass in space. Desperados’ Inner Tequila Studios is a global brand activation platform, created to dial up brand authenticity and position the tequila-infused beer for party occasions using wild music experiments. This one took place on a zero-gravity plane. The event made for captivating footage shared on MTV, Hypebeast and more. We connected with consumers in a whole new way and it became Desperados most watched content yet. |
| Philosophie | Desperados invented a beer born with something unique within - tequila, and set out to own party occasions. Inspired by its daring heritage we created Inner Tequila Studios, a global stage to promote wild experimentation in music. The brief from Desperados was to become the most iconic drink for 18-24 year old. We call this audience Anticipators. They love to explore and experiment anticipating the next move that will help define their identity. With Inner Tequila Studios we want to encourage Anticipators to release their inner tequila by remixing the rules of the status quo. Instead of focusing on various areas of youth culture, we put a stake in the ground with our own unique take on music. Rather than slapping our logo on a festival tent, our objectives were to foster new artistic endeavours, and service music culture by encouraging wild experimentation and creative innovation. Desperados took to the skies in search of the ultimate Bass Drop. That moment when the DJ lifts the crowd up higher than they ever thought possible, then brings them slamming back down to earth. One of the most intense experiences that sound waves can provide, Desperados took it to the next level. Teaming up with DJ Mike Cervello of the Barong Family, Dr. Daniel Levitin the neuroscientist behind ‘This is Your Brain on Music’ and 100 lucky guests for 2 days of unexpected moments and wild experiments to unlock the physical and emotional effects of the Bass Drop. The event cumulated in a DJ set 30,000 feet above Las Vegas in a zero gravity plane. When the DJ dropped the bass, the pilot dropped the dance floor, sending the crowd floating in zero gravity. |
| Problem | The strategy for Bass Drop, and all of the activations from Inner Tequila Studios, is to create authentic music experiments that remix the rules of culture. We reject the ordinary and amplify creativity to keep music diverse, innovative and fun. Our aim is to inspire Anticipators to have their own creative ideas and ‘release their inner tequila’. By adding to culture rather than taking from it we set out to own the party occasion while gaining authenticity in the eyes of the consumer. Music unites tribes and defines friendships because it’s the only truly global language. Anticipators especially resonate with brands in the music sphere - 80% cite branded festivals and concerts as the best way to engage with them. But festivals often lack the unique innovation that our 18-24-year old consumers crave. So with Bass Drop, we wanted to prove that the sky was not the limit. |
