TALVIN SINGH
With Oskar Vizan
One night only Australian Premiere
International cult DJ Talvin Singh makes his Australian debut with Tabtek, a spectacular audio and visual set melding live tabla and digital electronica beats with special visuals from Soi (Japan).
Singh has collaborated with the biggest names in international club music, including Madonna, Björk, Courtney Pine, Massive Attack, Joi and the Asian Dub Foundation.
Founder of London's 90s Asian dance hotspot, the Anokha club, Singh set the London music scene on its head when he won the Mercury Music Prize for popular music in 1999.
In this Australian premiere concert performance, Singh fuses the highly evolved melody and complex rhythmic intensity of Indian classical music with lo-fi electronica to great effect- as only Talvin Singh can.

ill be definitely checking this guy out, i never got to see him when i lived in the UK, but ive heard a fair bit of his stuff and its pretty damn nice. think d&b with indian sounding drums, a bit bhangra sounding, a little like asian dub foundation perhaps, but less 'bandish' or 'poppy' then them (if you could call ADF poppy at all).
great to see such an act getting a bill for the adelaide festival of arts!
