Color Haze

I can't remember if I wrote about Color Haze here. Their 2008 release All  in my opinion is one of the most refreshing modern takes on what used to be called Stoner Rock in the 90s. Elements of psychedelic, jam, stoner are brought together perfectly, on top of an almost Indian-Classical like underlying rhythm.

HFT

This one is a recent discovery. HFT (High Fucking Time) is a three piece instrumental jam band from Delhi!. Their tunes are absolutely hypnotic and their songs can go on for 15 minutes if they have to. Lew Hilt on the bass is a madman. Arjun Sen (guitars) doesn’t play guitar in the conventional sense. His unique texture-weaving kind of playing is beautiful. The drummer, Adhiraj Mustafi is the third member of this line up, and trust me, he is the perfect compliment to the bass and guitars. Catch them live if you can and download their mp3s and videos off their webpage http://www.hftmusic.com/ .

World Class Listening Problem

I got hold of their latest release. Damon Che proves once again that he is one of the most prolific drummers in the scene today. The spirit of the band hasn't changed at all inspite of Damon being the only member from the previous line-up. They've only gotten more jazzier and the songs are much lesser in length compared to Don Caballero 2, their most acclaimed album. Highly recommended for math rock enthusiasts.
