Talvin Singh is a renowned British musician, composer, and producer whose inventive work fuses the sounds of his Indian heritage with electronic music and other global influences. Born in London in 1970, Singh gained significant prominence in the world music and electronica scenes, particularly during the late 1990s. He is best known for his skillful blending of classical Indian music, drum and bass, jazz, and other genres, not only pioneering the Asian Underground movement but also influencing a spectrum of contemporary cross-genre music projects.

Singh's career took a definitive turn with the release of his 1998 Mercury Music Prize-winning album "OK," an album acknowledged for its groundbreaking appeal and which has secured his status as a musical innovator. Following the success of "OK," Singh continued to release works such as "Ha!" and to collaborate with various artists, as is evident through the remixes like "Maharaja (Talvin Singh Remix)." His music—characterized by complex rhythms, atmospheric soundscapes, and a profound respect for classical Indian instrumentation—continues to evolve, ensuring his impact on the ever-shifting boundaries of contemporary music. The expanded edition of "OK," along with other recent releases such as "Jal" and "Vira," reaffirms Singh's enduring role in the tapestry of global electronica and his dedication to exploring the interplay between tradition and technology.
