Charanjit Singh – Synthesizing: Ten Ragas To A Disco Beat (1982)
A groundbreaking fusion of Indian classical ragas and electronic disco, this rare record by Bollywood session musician Charanjit Singh is now hailed as a pioneer of acid house music — released a full five years before the genre officially emerged in Chicago.
Originally overlooked upon release in 1982, the album was later rediscovered and praised worldwide for its ahead-of-its-time use of the Roland TB-303, TR-808, and Jupiter-8 synthesizers. Its hypnotic beats, cosmic synth lines, and reinterpretation of traditional ragas make it one of the most influential and collectible records in modern music history.
A must-have for serious collectors and audiophiles — an Indian electronic masterpiece decades ahead of its era.
