Pinkturban welcomes Pakistani duo Fake Shamans to their roster with Katha EP. These rising stars have established themselves through numerous releases on labels and DJ gigs across the globe, even turning heads with a breathtaking rooftop set against the backdrop of 17th-century Mughal architecture in their hometown of Lahore.

Katha EP seamlessly contrasts traditional Indian Classical elements with thumping tech house beats for a groovy dance floor experience. "Katha" showcases the hypnotic rhythms of the Indian hand drum tabla and a female recitation of the instrument's oral language as it's been transmitted from guru to disciple through the ages.

"Jugnoo" features delicate female vocals in Urdu that transport listeners to a dreamy world where lovers are stargazing under the night sky, backdropped by fireflies.

⁠
Pinkturban is excited to announce the release of 'Puria EP,' a two-track project from sitar-electronic music fusion artist Evan Hatfield. Hot off the back of his viral sitar videos, Evan has been tearing up dance floors worldwide at festivals such as Lucidity and Lightning in a Bottle and even performing for the King of Bahrain!⁠
⁠
'Puria EP' is a unique blend of organic house grooves and live Eastern instrumentation. The title track, 'Puria,' features vocals by Bangladeshi-born singer Arzeen, inspired by the Bengali phrase 'Ananda Utsav,' meaning 'festival of joy.' Arzeen's mysterious and emotive vocals are complemented by bouncy synths, driving tabla rhythms, and heavily-swung drums.⁠
⁠
On the flip side, 'Underneath' seamlessly weaves Evan's production skills with the talents of musicians Danny Shamoun on the Turkish Ney and Jivan Gasparyan Jr. on the Armenian Duduk. This melodically rich and emotionally-charged track represents a powerful musical unity.⁠
⁠
'Puria EP' is Evan's most collaborative release yet, as he pushes the boundaries of his sound and works with a diverse group of talented musicians to bring fresh, exciting ideas to his music.⁠

The Qalbi EP by Ali Termos is out now on all platforms.

► Stream: https://hypeddit.com/pinkturban/pt017

------
Prolific Lebanese artist Ali Termos makes his debut on Pinkturban with his Qalbi EP. The EP features two deep and driving world-inspired organic house tracks.

'Qalbi,' Arabic for 'My Heart,' features a shimmering female vocal that translates into 'I have no one but you in this life,' which is counteracted by an emotional Turkish clarinet dancing around the vocal throughout the track. The kick and the bass resonate in such a deep and earthy way that it allows one to feel the scorch of the desert sun from afar.

'Layli,' Arabic for 'My Night,' is a journey around the world. The track features an Indian vocal chant, the hooky flow of South American marimba, and African-infused percussion that builds to its peak powered by a Persian kamanche fiddle.

Let go and be transported throughout the world with the Qalbi EP, whether at the club or relaxing at home.

Otm Shank delivers a light-hearted and quirky club-ready track inspired by the Indian hand drum tabla. "Powder" features Indian sarod stabs, tabla grooves, and trippy vocal layers alongside hard hitting beats and deep bass. Tabla players use powder to keep the surface of the drums dry and the track features a conversation between a student and his guru about what sort of powder to use. The EP includes a groovy remix from Brooklyn-based Pakistani producer Saqib, his debut on Pinkturban.

22/12/2021

Otm Shank just dropped two new interviews with 15 Questions and VoyageLAMag.

"Music can give me more joy than anything in this world, but it can also give me more pain. The creative process makes you look deep within yourself. Because of that, making music can be very painful, but it also can be the most healing."

"For many years I thought I had to transform my life to make music. Now I've come to realize that making music is transforming my life. I believe artists have a great mission on this earth. The artist's job is to transcend the challenges and struggles of daily life and use our lives to inspire others."
