The Prodigy just released this video from their tour of India earlier this year.
They played Eristoff Invasion [http://https://www.facebook.com/invasionfest] in
Delhi and Bangalore in January and the gigs were incredible. Their sound and
light rigs were unlike anything I’ve seen in the country before, and they
brought such phenomenal energy to the stage.

The video features a live performance of ‘Smack My Bitch Up’ cut

HP organized a ‘Meet’ at Bonobo on Saturday afternoon for audiophiles and the
press to check out their Beats™ technology. I got invited as a ‘music
enthusiast’ and since Papal from Pentagram was talking about it, I thought I’d
go by and check it out.

Microgroove at ZenziYou’ve probably heard that vinyl is back. Over the past few
years, vinyl sales have been steadily increasing, labels have started
manufacturing them again, and friends have started pulling their parents old
records (and players) out of dusty boxes. Over in India, vinyl has moved out of
Chor Bazaar and is also available at regular music stores. Now Zenzi and NH7
have started a new vinyl club called Microgroove

The new show is called MTV Roots and will feature music videos from  ‘global and
local artists/bands of South  Asian origin’. The best part is that it’s open to
all languages, so you’ll be  able to watch everyone from Raghu Dixit

a little more to his brand of easy, acoustic-based pop-rock.  My favourite gig
of his, so far, is the lovely afternoon set they

Poster for Leaving HomeThis is really big news. The film Leaving Home, about the life and music of the
band Indian Ocean, just won a National Award, pretty much the highest honour in
film-making that the country offers.
The film won the award for the Best Art of Culture Film at the 58th National
Film Awards.

The film, directed by Jaideep Varma is as much about the journey of one of
India’s biggest bands, as it is about the four men that came together to make
such incredible music. It was releas

If you haven’t been to a DnB party yet, then I strongly recommend coming to Bass
Camp tonight at Blue Frog. The music is great, it’s surprisingly easy to dance
(bop up and down) to, and drum n bass has such a dedicated following that it’s
going to be a fun party.

Bass Camp is a quarterly festival that features drum n bass, dubstep and other
bass heavy genres. This edition is headlined by Brit

Hard Rock Café celebrated International Women’s Day on Tuesday and I went by
purely because of their selection of bands. They picked two great acts, Soulmate
and Shaa’ir + Func, fronted by two superb female vocalists Tipriti Kharbanga and 
Monica Dogra. Both women have strong, powerful voices, so much style and
ridiculous amounts of presence on stage. When they’re performing, it’s hard to
look anywhere else.  They’re

Apache Indian at Blue Frog; I owed it to my childhood to make sure I was there.



Blue Frog was packed when I walked in and the excitement in the air was pretty
palpable. Apache had two DJs open for him DJ Sa and DJ Jassim. I’m not entirely
sure who picked them, but really? Diana King‘s Shy Guy and a remix of Time Of My
Life by the Black Eyed Peas don’t really seem like appropriate build up music
for the Don Raja. But we

This sounds like it’s going to the most beautiful festival. Yes, it’s a bit of a
trek away, unless you live in Calcutta, but think about it – a festival in the
Sunderbans with some great music, set on a 7km clay and sand beach. I already
want to book my tickets!
