FRDG Fringe Presents : Lifafa

Contemporary electronic music production has served to score the memories of an entire generation in India.

As Lifafa, Suryakant Sawhney, has spent five years exploring the realms of electronic music that not only speaks in sonics, but also includes words and meanings.

Via an ongoing exploration of Hindi and Urdu, a constant refinement of his own production techniques, and his instinctive take on melody and cadence, this music – spiritual and sensual, familiar and alien – has caught the attention of audiences not just in urban, Anglicised India, but in less obvious corners of the country, and beyond.
