I travel the globe playing music and DJ'ing, twisting off the beaten path to dig for records and films. My bandmates in Combustible Edison shared a love for Bollywood and beyond; music directors like RD Burman, Bappi Lahiri, Kalyanji Anandji, M.Ashraf and Ilaiyaraaja are inspirational. And Helen, the H-Bomb of Bollywood, is the greatest dancer of all time.

Disco King Bappida invents trip hop in 1985 with the main theme of "Aitbaar", called "Ru Ru Ru" on the soundtrack album. Wordless vocals by Maya Ghosh. Sounds like it could be Combustible Edison...or Portishead, Morcheeba, Mono, et al. Bappi is the greatest!
