Description
Back in the early nineties Tranglobal Underground - an ever changing line-up of DJs, producers and musicians - found beats no one else was dancing to. Stubbornly individual and fiercely independent this innovative and experimental collective was linked by a refusal to be straight jacketed into one style and therefore ignoring any notions of musical barriers.
Their first single, "Temple Head", which featured tablas & Polynesian vocals became an unlikely club anthem and a soundtrack to a CocaCola ad! The album ‘Dream of 100 Nations’ reached the top 50, topped the indie charts and got ecstatic reviews. By the mid-nineties the growth of ambient and trance styles had created a hunger for new ideas and Transglobal Underground had plenty.
Fast forward to 2007 and Transglobal Underground return with their 7th album, the follow-up to 2004’s ‘Impossible Broadcasting’. Released on their own label Mule Satellite Recordings, the 14-track album features founding members Tim Whelan (keyboards/ guitar) and Hamilton ‘Hamid Man Tu’ Lee (drums/ programming), plus the current core members of the collective, Godfrey ‘Tuup’ Duncan (lead vocals/ congas), Sheema Mukherjee (sitar/ bass), Gurjit Sihra (dhol/ kaos pad) and Ravinder Neiyyar (dhol/ tables).
