Nitin Sawhney is without a doubt one of the most important British-Asian artists working in the UK. His music is the result of a lifetime listening to and assimilating British music outside and Indian music at home. His musical vocabulary draws on Asian traditional & contemporary sounds, flamenco guitar & Latin rhythms, drum n bass, tabla juxtaposed with techno bass and a rich array of varied and original voices. In his music, Nitin continually deconstructs barriers between club style, tranquil ambient groove and world music.
In 1995, Nitin joined the Outcaste label and released his second CD - Migration on August 21 1995 to coincide with Independence Day for India and Pakistan (August 14/15).This CD addressed the themes of journey, transition and adjustment. From the title track, with its ingenious and seamless integration of Indian music and rare groove, to 'Hope', with stunning vocals by Natacha Atlas and 'Heer Ranjha' a modern rendition of the tragic forbidden love story that inspired Waris Shaha's epic poem (a firm favourite on Giles Peterson's Kiss 100 show;) - Migration was a triumph of East/West fusion and received rave reviews.
