Was invited by my brother .in / .in to speak on what it’s taken to build a scene here in Bangalore at the place where I started my career as an artist -
If you’ve been to .blr , Butta Bops & Jams, or you already know what this is about.
Showcasing the sound and energy of this city. For the people here now, and the ones still finding their way in.
Speaking on it out loud made something clearer: the work I keep coming back to is never really about the music alone. It’s about the relationships that hold it up.
Music is how I show up. This is my voice.
thank you for your kindness and your wisdom, brother. True legend. ❤️🙏🏽💎
Still building. Still listening.
Last slide: my first time ever speaking in public at The Ritz to a packed crowd.
2019 vs 2026 a LOT has happened.
Not too long ago, .mody and I were having a conversation about collaborating with those who shared similar values. To be authentic and honest in our expression. That’s when he mentioned and . Of course I was intrigued and had to jump on the opportunity to create something special - A tune with Ganga Devi - a folk singer based in Uttarakhand, whom Kranti recorded live during her travels up north. Ganga and I haven’t met but she’s on a Garage tune produced by me. The idea in itself is wild. Music is the greatest unifier and this is a great example of that. Jaagar Garage was made in 24 hours and I think at this point I knew that this would be special. Out now on all streaming platforms.
