the Sub Swara Podcast’s 10th anniversary!

March 2, 2010

Familia y Amigos:

For our Xth podcast, I’m moving 144bpm in the out-lane on a layered globalist meander, pushing against the outer edges of what dubstep may or may not be. What was the question?

Regardless, an amalgamation of answers: A plaintive Piazzolla swell set against a swampy Illum Sphere beat …hints of Moderat and a classic Sub Swara break… …pressure builds and we hit full cruising altitude as Chasing Shadows unleashes Amirah. The captain says you are now free to move about the cabin.

Sub Swara Video Blog: Winter gigs and recordings

February 18, 2010

Whattup people!  Dave here with the lowdown on what’s going on in the Sub Swara camp as the snows melt around us and some of the material that Dhruva recorded in the last episode gets crafted into songs.  check it out (and peep the super-high-tech chair spin):

And check the evolution– we had Hired Gun flipping vox in one of the first vids, percussion recorded in India in the 2nd, and then the 2 get put together in the 3rd. Always a blast melding new sounds into newer songs.

We’ve got a bunch of road gigs coming up in the next few weeks, including Texas for SxSW, Eastern Canada, Western Canada, and we’re developing some NYC dates as well– love the hometown :) See you soon!
