   About Dr Das







ANIMATION BY MOLAX. MUSIC BY DR DAS (DUB ACCELERATOR)

Underground Resistance meets I.R krikati power surge
Uploaded by FourthWorldDub





Bassist/performer/producer Dr Das was one of the founder members
of Asian Dub Foundation (ADF), which developed out of a youth music workshop he was running at London based music organization CM in 1993. He left ADF at the end of 2005 to resume his exploration of dub related experimental music and engage in new collaborations.
He has since played bass with the likes of Red Cardell from Brittany, indo-jazz clarinetist Arun Ghosh, Istanbul's Baba Zula and Dub Colossus (the Ethiopian project).






Dr Das’s debut solo album EMERGENCY BASSLINES (2006) is an instrumental set where his trademark bass melodies guide you through a dense jungle of distorted Indian percussion. The overall sound is both militant and optimistic, reflecting a world in a state of flux. His sound is influenced by Dub, 23 Skidoo's percussion-based minimalism, the caustic soundscapes of Muslimgauze and Miles Davis’s 70s output, particularly the stark electric funk of “Dark Magus.”

The current Dr Das live experience features himself on bass and Ramjac on Akai MPC, dubbing and efx. This unit is sometimes augmented with other musicians. Previous guests have included Arun Ghosh, Sufi vocalist Sukhawat Ali Khan, tabla player Nilesh Gulhane and bansuri (Indian flute) player Alamin Bhuiya.



For several years now, Dr Das has been producing and remixing for INDIGENOUS RESISTANCE (IR), the collective who, along with sister organization THE FIRE THIS TIME (TTFT) highlight the struggle of indigenous people worldwide through their dub/dance releases.

rezist injustice





Dr Das is currently preparing two albums for digital release: "SUNADAMALA VOL 1," based on the "sunadamala" Indian electronic raga sequencer and featuring performances from classical and traditional musicians, and "PREPARING 4 WAR," the dubnoiz template first composed in 2003, against the backdrop to the US invasion of Iraq.





These are some of the people to whom Dr Das has contributed basslines:

Visionary Underground (albums: Keep The Grime On and Fired Up)
Asian Dub Foundation (all albums to 2005)
Analogue Mindfield (album: A Fine Adjustment Of Time)
Sabri Brothers (album: Ya Mustapha),
Fundamental (BBC Radio 1, John Peel session and live)
The Bollywood Brass Band (album: Movie Masala)
Paban Das Baul/State of Bengal (album: Tanatani)
Ghetto Priest (album: Culture Vulture)

Access to land is one of the key issues for developing countries – and Brazil has one of the most inequitable land distributions in the world, with vast tracts of land held by ofton absentee landowners. Meanwhile thousands of peasants live in marginal lands in cities and rural areas. The Brazilian Landless Worker’s Movement (MST) has proved a huge success with the disenfranchised rural and urban poor in Brazil – becoming one of the largest social movements in the world.
Please come for a day of music and information in support of MST.
