Asian Underground

Asian underground is a vibrant music genre that fuses Western electronic beats with traditional Asian musical elements, creating a unique and culturally rich soundscape. Emerging in the UK in the 1990s, this genre blends drum and bass, bhangra, hip-hop, and dub, with influences ranging from Indian classical music to contemporary Asian pop. Artists within the genre, such as Apache Indian and Jianbo, often incorporate multicultural elements, combining traditional instruments like the sitar and tabla with synths and samplers to produce innovative audio experiences. The genre reflects diasporic identities, resonating with themes of multiculturalism, identity, and heritage, offering both energetic and contemplative compositions.
