Karsh Kale(Six Degrees/Kollektiv)
Described by Billboard Magazine as a “visionary composer and producer”, Karsh Kale (pronounced “Kursh Kah-lay”) is one of global electronic music’s brightest stars. While his peers view Kale as a force of nature on both tabla and drums, Kale is an equally innovative song writer, producer, composer and DJ. Whether playing live or as a DJ . Kale has brought his infectious global sound to almost every major city on four continents. Kale is equally renown by both fans and critics as the pioneer of a sound that captures a panorama of influences - past and future, analog and digital - bringing classical Indian music into the Western mainstream rock and electronic vernacular. In a span of less than seven years, Kale released four critically acclaimed solo albums on Six Degrees Records, became a founding member of the super groups Tabla Beat Science and Realize Live, recorded and remixed countless artists, and has collaborated with the likes of Zakir Hussain, Paul Oakenfold, Sting, Anoushka Shankar, Salim-Sulaiman, Bill Laswell, MIDIval Punditz, Norah Jones, Sultan Khan, Paula Cole, Susheela Raman and Herbie Hancock. Karsh has also created Kollektiv, a national crew of DJs' producers, musicians and artists showcasing cutting edge underground music through Kollektiv events across the country.


Sub Swara (Sunder, Dhruva and Haj)
The Sub Swara crew has making serious waves in the world of cutting edge sound since its inception as a performing crew and club residency in 2005. Both as individual recording and performing artists and as a tandem, the Sub Swara crew is everywhere right now.Defying genre and concocting a bass charged blend of midtempo breaks, ragga dancehall, glitch, dub step, next level breakbeat and the uncategorizable, Dhruva, Sunder, Haj have created a profound imprint and redefined dance music with their signature blend of mixing, turntablism and live dubbed out tabla. With a slew of crushing new material, a much anticipated debut album scheduled for late summer 2007 release, and blazing gigs from coasts to coast and across the world, SS has been pushing big speaker bizness to new levels.

The Sub Swara live set represents the crew in fullest effect. With the recent addition of heavyweight mc Juakali to the live Set Sub Swara has added a crucial ragga component to their international bass and breaks filled sound and has continued to ignite and unite crews from all sonic lineages. The SS sounds run deep and traverses all boundaries.
