For those of you into ethnic drum and bass, british-asian hip hop, or good live music in general, and if you are in New York this Friday night (3/17), I highly recommend attending the upcoming New York Sub Swara show featuring some of the top south asian musicians/producers around, including State of Bengal (best known for that Flight IC 408 track from Talvin Singh’s Anokha record), Navdeep of Mutiny fame, DK aka Bollygirl (Avaaz/Kollektiv), and DJs Bobby Friction and Nihal (BBC Radio 1), among others of course. Click on the image for more information, but rumor has it that pre-release copies of State of Bengal’s upcoming album, along with some of the most innovative in diasporic desi sounds will be available at the show.
The show starts at 10 p.m., is $15 in advance, or $20 at the door, and is @ Downtime, 251 W 30th Street (Between 7th and 8th). 21 and over.
awww shucks! why is everything in NY always?
I feel you Kenyandesi. I never made it to any of the original mutiny shows, but thanks to the advent of the chinatown bus from DC to NY, I will be there on Friday. I think one Mr. Manish Vij may be in attendance as well.
Will be in attendance as well. Looking forward to bumping into several Mutineers.
soo jealous. sigh. I’ll have to “settle” for the April 15th show in NYC.
I live in Bmore. On Fridays by the time the Chinatown bus gets here, it’s full of DCers. I once had to stow away on the bus in order to get to NY. Fun times.
