Nitin Sawhney

A fluid, multilingual blend of tabla rhythms and soulful downtempo. It feels like watching the rain fall over a bustling city from a place of total stillness.

It's like a warm hug from the universe delivered through tabla beats and soulful vocals.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The way the water-like synth ripples merge with the crisp tabla strike on the opening track
The transition into Hindi vocals on Fragile Wind where the acoustic guitar suddenly feels more intimate
The six-minute expansion of Raag where the traditional structure meets a modern, pulsing bassline
