Karsh Kale DJ, drummer, singer-songwriter, producer, remix artist—Karsh Kale does it all, combining musical intelligence with ghazal vocals, hip-hop beats, and guitar riffs into sonically rich "tablatronica." A major force in the intercontinental Asian Massive club phenomenon, New York-based Kale creates a conscious fusion of Asian and Western music, mixing everything from rock ballads, hip-hop, and lounge tracks backed by dreamy sitar strings into state-of-the-art cross-cultural music with an urban sensibility.
Janaka Selekta and Dhamaal Soundsystem Janaka Selekta makes the dance floor bounce with an Asian-influenced sound weaving original tracks, homemade bootlegs, and floor-stomping world music. He, along with the San Francisco-based DJ artist collective Dhamaal Soundsystem he cofounded, blend Indian, Pakistani, and Sri Lankan percussion, voices, and strings into electronic performance art twice voted Best of the Bay by readers of the San Francisco Bay Guardian.
