Nitin Sawhney performed in India for the first time this month, playing gigs in New Delhi, Mumbai and the Sula Fest in Nasik. For his India tour, Nitin Sawhney was promoting his recently launched ninth studio album, Last Days of Meaning, which was released in November 2011. According to Sawhney himself, this album is a, "reaction against what was going on politically in England," during the 2005 UK general elections where political party leaders, James Cameron, Nick Clegg and Gordon Brown were, "blaming immigrants for the economic downturn." For Sawhney, it was frustrating to see history repeat itself and see [...]
According to the Times of India , Nitin Sawhney will be coming to India to perform in February 2012. This is pretty huge (#twss) as it's his first tour of the country. The tour will most likely be happening across five cities to launch his latest studio album, Last Days of Meaning . So far, no dates have been confirmed. Nitin Sawhney has released nine albums to date, of which his most critically acclaimed was his fourth, gold-selling album, Beyond Skin, that got him a Mercury Prize nomination in 2000. His music takes a little and a [...]
Following on from my post about Jumping Back Slash , LV's amazing blend of UK and South African electronic music has always been really underpraised I reckon. 'Boomslang' rightly had a decent level of exposure; since then, I'd been kind of neglecting their music a bit, but after they just posted up a free download of their seriously good remix of Nitin Sawhney this morning I've checked some recent soundcloud uploads and they are on better form than ever. Here's that remix, downloadable from Mr Sawhney's Soundcloud page: [...]

New remix from UK dubstep collective, Engine EarZ Experiment , of artist Nitin Sawhney's "The Devil & Midnight." The remix is bangin!

Nitin Sawhney - The Devil & Midnight (Engine-EarZ Experiment Remix)

If this isn't delivering a paramount remix pack, then I don't know what to tell you. I usually only post four at a time, but know that I narrowed things down from about five times that amount all boldly raising their hand. So without further ado, and in no particular order, allow me to present to you...

Nitin Sawhney - The Devil & Midnight (Engine-EarZ Experiment Remix) Apparently it's July. Late July. I wouldn't have said so judging by the weather here in Amsterdam. What am I supposed to do when it's too cold and too wet to head out? Listen to dubstep. Someone must have been following the weather forecast because we received this remix yesterday, just in time. Engine-Earz Experiment (which I'm cutting down to EEE) have taken Nitin Sawhney's soft-spoken track The Devil & Midnight to a different dimension, keeping the soulful vocal and gentle [...]

There's been no shortage of great international acts featured on CSV over the years, but I thought I'd feature some favorite tracks of mine from around the world. Hevia - " Busindre Reel ". Jose Angel Hevia Velasco is a Spanish bagpiper, and his music is as deliciously odd as that previous phrase. Nitin Sawhney - " Mausam ". Indian-British musician is as exemplary of fusion music as there is. And the results are absolutely stunning in their delicateness. Barbatuques - " Baiao Destemperado ". Sao Paulo, Brazil is the home of [...]

Sitting in the small tourist town of San Pedro de Atacama...amazing place but the sun is too harsh on my pasty white nerd skin, so i have retreated into the welcoming gloom of my hotel room to bash out a post and avoid the ludicrous heat! I have a couple of goodies for you to make up for the lack of posting - First up a 320 freebie ... Bachelors of Science are and will remain one of the pivotal reasons i love D&B so much... they consistently bring out beautifully [...]

"This is a collection of thoughts, ideas, feelings and catharsis in a city of immense diversity, imagination and beliefs. Featuring a whole range of artists, some less known, some celebrated, this music attempts to capture a zeitgeist and common humanity that pervades superficial divides." - Nitin Sawhney The above quote is a piece of the liner notes that you'll find upon opening up London Undersound , the latest release from Nitin Sawhney , which much like the Grates ' [...]

Former member of the Dublin Gospel Choir Padraig Rushe has released his debut album Greyworld on Loud Child Records. Blending soul with rock and folk with soaring vocals over the top, Rushe has inevitably drawn comparisons with Nick Drake and Jeff Buckley. With three albums under his belt, Rushe left the Dublin Gospel Choir in January 2008 to pursue his yearnings for a solo career. After working with some music legends including James Brown, Damien Rice and Nitin Sawhney, he started to make waves for himself as a solo artist in his own right, notably [...]
