Introduction
It's
rare to have a our favourite record of the year released so early
in January, but we suspect that Outcaste Records' 'Essential Asian
Flavas - Hits, Beat & New Grooves' will remain the top of our
list for the rest of 2003. This mix of the BEST in bhangra, hip
hop and Bollywood beats has been melodiously blended with overtures
of honey, ginger and all things spicy and nice....yum! Start queuing
to buy this when it is officially launched on 13th January 2003.
Outcaste
DJ, Shabs says of the new compilation, "it is amazing to think
that it took a bunch of American hip hop producers to take some
Bollywood beats and vocals and turn the UK Asian music scene on
its head. Timbaland with Miss Elliott, Dre with Truth Hurts, they
have both been at the vanguard of this American movement which continues
apace in the clubs. By combining urban rhythms with Asian musical
forms a whole new musical genre has been created."
On
Essential Asian Flavas, British Asian producers have caught up and
created a sound which finally brings Bhangra and the Asian Underground
into the 21st century, This compilation celebrates this inventive
new music by presenting the listener with the biggest cuts of the
moment, like the massive smash hit Panjabi MC's 'Mundian To Bach
Ke' as well as those tracks like Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan's hit from
the film 'Bend it Like Beckham', that have inspired the movement.
"We
here at Outcaste have carefully selected all the hot tunes that
we know you will love", said Shabs "S Kaliwalia's 'Kahendeh
Neh Naina' and Craig Armstrong's 'Miracle' are particular favourites."
