Budget-Friendly｜Charanjit Singh: Synthesizing - Ten Ragas To A Disco Beat (Colored Vinyl) Vinyl 2LP - Turntable Lab Exclusive - LIMIT 1 PER CUSTOMER

"Light in the Attic (LITA) proudly announces the long-awaited reissue of Synthesizing: Ten Ragas to a Disco Beat, the revolutionary 1982 album from composer and musician Charanjit Singh. Pairing Indian classical ragas with then-state-of-the-art Roland synthesizers and drum machines, Singh created an electronic masterpiece that was far ahead of its time. The 10-track album was remastered by Johanz Westerman at Ballyhoo Studio Mastering and stretched across 2-LPs for the highest quality listening experience. The vinyl was pressed at Optimal Media and housed in a gatefold jacket that replicates the original artwork. An accompanying 16-page LP booklet features previously-unreleased photos and two new essays." - Light In The Attic
Original 2010 Lab review from when this record was originally reissued:
Mind-blowing musical find! This one's been causing a stir on the net ever since it was discovered (and rightfully so). Charanjit Singh's Ten Ragas To A Disco Beat is one of the most interesting and incredible musical discoveries in recent memory. Sounding like a cross breed of the toughest acid techno grooves with the futuristic electronic sensibility of AFX's Analord put to through a classic Indian Raga filter... circa 1982. That's right, this was created in 1982! Singh was a Bollywood soundtrack composer who originally hoped to capitalize on the disco craze of the time by matching up the ragas to electronic disco beats. He produced these tracks on a totally classic acid house set up consisting of a TB-303 bassline, TR-808 drum machine and the Jupiter-8 synthesizer - halfway around the world and 5 years earlier than acid house pioneers Chip E and Phuture. The futuristic quality of these tracks is insane. Check the sounds and prepare to get your mind seriously blown. Highly recommended.
