MALFNKTION, the artistic alias for the electronic music producer and beatmaker from India, has rapidly gained recognition for his exceptional fusion of traditional Indian sounds with contemporary electronic beats. With a keen ear for eclectic samples and a penchant for marrying them with groovy basslines, MALFNKTION has carved out a distinctive niche in the music industry. His discography includes the evocative "Battle for Watermark" which draws inspiration from 'The Outlaw Ocean', a book by journalist Ian Urbina which explores the dark world of international waters. Tracks like "Infinity Trail," "Tawang (Around the World India by Mixtape)," and "Charlie" showcase his versatility and ability to transcend cultural boundaries through music.

MALFNKTION's journey in the music scene has been marked by a series of impactful releases, including the groove-laden "Buenos Aires" and the introspective "Vincent Chase Slippin'." His flair for storytelling through sound is evident in tracks like "Be Free," "1960," and "Vote for Worms." The track "Hindustani Rascal" particularly stands out as an homage to his roots, incorporating samples from classic Bollywood soundtracks, reimagined with a fresh electronic perspective. MALFNKTION not only resonates with his audience through his innovative approach to production but also maintains a strong thematic presence in his work, as seen with the thought-provoking "I Killed Ramji." This blend of cultural depth and contemporary relevance positions MALFNKTION as a forward-thinking artist in the world of electronic music.
