From now until October 30, local winners around the globe will compete for the honour of representing their region in the race for the second ever Worldwide Act.
The MTV Europe Music Awards will be aired live on November 11 from Frankfurt.
'Painted Dreams' was the official theme song of the first Guwahati International Short Film Festival, 2011 and was conceptualised and directed by Prithish and Puja Chakraborty of Creovaent Productions, Guwahati.
Formed in 2010, Alobo Naga and the Band is made up of five typical young Naga men -- Alobo Naga (Vocals), Akum Jams, Fung Walling, DJ Sumika Yepthomi and Pamei. While its roots are firmly entrenched in the contemporary progressive rock genre, the band, however, adapts to any form.
'Painted Dreams' was ranked among the Top 50 international music videos of 2011 by US channel VH1. It also featured at number four in VH1's International Top 10 Chart Busters, a list which had the likes of Lady Gaga, Christina Aguilera and Pitbull.
