For those of us often feeling a little jealous b/c our cities, specifically every city except New York and LA, don’t get cool desi talent to come and perform can find salvation now that some of my favorite dj’s spinning desi influenced drum-and-bass, breaks, and electronica, are bringing their New York night to DC’s Bossa Lounge (Adams Morgan) this Friday. Kollektiv DC, headlined by Karsh Kale (Six Degrees), Zakhm (Mutiny), dk/bollygirl (avaaz), dimmsummer (ethnotechno.com), and DC’s own Vishal Kanwar on the paint and canvas, is one night not to be missed. This also happens to be taking place on one of the best Desi weekends in DC, Bhangra Blowout weekend, so you have no excuse not to be there, I will be. The party starts at 10.
karsh kale is ridiculously awesome live. caught him @ 111 minna in SF. if you’re close to DC definitely check out the show.
Sadly, I’m missing it. But that’s a far better event than BB itself. Ugh, I’m so sick of it. They descend on the city like a horde of underage brown locusts.
locusts be damned, i’ll be there. 🙂
me too! Mutineer roll call anyone?
We crossed the Atlantic and stayed with Bollygirl and Dimmsummer last week in NYC but managed to come for 7 days when absolutely no Asian Massive nights were on. Freaking tragic. GO SEE KARSH KALE. There is the future for sure. My drummer friend in SF almost creamed himself a couple years ago when we saw Tabla Beat Science, the whole jumping back and forth between the drum kit and tablas thing.
