While keeping it fresh at every gathering, mangling frequencies, tearing bass lines, cutting up samples and dropping his gustative production, B.R.E.E.D is slamming out sounds of potent identity. Happily, ceremonial dance freaks, breedlings and BASS heads have found an auditory counterpart. Long before any DJ from India went international, Ritesh D’Souza (aka B.R.E.E.D and DJ Nasha), decided to pitch his tent in the creative communities of underground dance movements.
B.R.E.E.D, who is otherwise known as the dynamic DJ Nasha, (two-time DMC Champion, India), uses the art of turntablism, controllers, FX processors, samplers, and alternative production concepts to misalign dance floors. Experimentation and an open mind have carried this artist beyond borders. Since B.R.E.E.D. has collaborated with various collectives in New York City, San Francisco and London, he has continually introduced new sounds to his nation. Shocking fellow musicians in India, he has performed at several internationally-acclaimed music festivals like Burning Man, Sunburn (Asia), Global Groove along with other international events.
Currently, he has a series of tracks lined up for release, including an EP on HIGH CHAI Recordings to be released in July 2010. This includes an original B.R.E.E.D. burner, “Sound Killer,” and a remix of “Come from Yard,” (Juakali, USA). The B.R.E.E.D. remix of “Mirrors,” (Jalebee Cartel), which released on HIGH CHAI Recordings as well, raced to top 10 on the Beatport top 100 Dubstep charts in January 2010. A remix of Nucleya’s “Kandhit Nayaka” by B.R.E.E.D. will be following up the July EP as well. There are many tunes to come and many dance manifestations to embody. Stay tuned breedlings.
