Tandava marks one of the first three releases from Nettwerk imprint Nutone, a label that has just recently surfaced due to the onslaught of worldly beats similar to that of Six Degrees. NatarajXT is a restructuring of Richard Bernet and Pierre Moitram's Nataraj (more traditional Northern Indian msuci) with the addition of France's Kapi, who himself is a self taught electronic musical artist. Pierre and Richard have studied Indian music extensively and you can tell with the sitar, sarod and esraj music that lays the background for much of Tandava. NatarajXT's music is very original but it still fits in nicely with a catagory with Talvin Singh and the recently released State of Bengal as well as other Asian Underground performers. This music is refreshing in a stagnant music industry such as the one we are experiencing.
