Swarm
is the first cut from the Badmarsh & Shri album Signs. Swarm
epitomises their relationship to perfection.
Badmarsh, with 10 years DJing & programming under his belt, handles the beats, the twisted soundscapes. Shri, classically trained bassist, flutist & tabla player, drives the track on with the toughest of basslines, piercing tabla stabs and haunting bowed bass sounds. For toughness check the Outlaw Remix
.

Album, Drum The Bass, 2005.
Nachdem sich (erst einmal) Badmarsh & Shri als Duo von der Musikszene verabschiedet haben, ist nun Shri wieder solo unterwegs, bringt sein zweites Solo-Album nach Drum The Bass heraus und bewegt sich doch in ziemlich guter Tradition des Badmarsh & Shri-Sounds. Vielleicht jedoch noch besser als Signs...

East Rain
has inherited the legacy of Badmarsh & Shri's mix of the gritty beats and dirty bass lines that come from western city environments, and the panoramic funk, and melancholic soundscapes of classical Indian musicianship. The new single features the original deep & dark album version backed up by a mellow mix from Mike Spencer. Shri contributes a multi layered & hypnotic instrumental mix and to cap it all there is a classic DJ Badmarsh mix that see's he old team back in drum & bass cahoots.
