Glass Beams - One Raga to a Disco Beat (A cover of 'Raga Bhairav' by Charanjit Singh)

Excellent! Kudos to Rajan Silva & all the band members. ❤ The Moog sounds so good in this one! I love the Indian influence. Jai Hind!

Hare Krshna Hare Rama Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya Thank you for bringing my awareness to this beautiful melody invoking in me the ability to clearly think towards action in my life 💚

[@utsvrma]

The team handling the creative direction for their sets, everything from styling, graphics, cinematography and set design, deserves multiple rounds of applause. The visual presentation just adds so much more to the sound.

[@art7867]

I'll give you that.

[@papa_pt]

It distracts me from the sound

[@elklobotomy]

@@papa_pt you fully have the ability to just listen if thats what you'd prefer

[@swarthygiant1463]

I listen to a ton of music like this but stuff that leans towards ambient or drone I generally have no interest in seeing live. I would LOVE to see glass beams live just to experience this with that presentation and a crowd around me vibing out

[@MitraD-j4w]

I absolutely agree!!!! They are a full vibration...

[@Contra.1776]

The drummer’s timing is impeccable

[@grenerd161]

[@teberoco]

It pulled me in. Brilliant

[@rupeoverlay3153]

Tbh, that doesn’t sound like that drumming matches the drummer in the video

[@kaseybaka]

it's just a recording, it doesn't have to sound exactly like that​@@rupeoverlay3153

[@kaseybaka]

yes, it's so tight!

[@ButterDog42069]

The bassist's head bobbing is so groovy in this one

[@Bruisewillies]

It's almost like their head's stationary and their body's doing all the grooving

[@1234n00b]

The song's so groovy even bassist approved of it

[@bryan_haines]

This and orb were highlights of the live set for sure. Whole crowd got moving

[@spiritualantiseptic]

The drummer is completely mesmerising, too. His precision is astonishing. He's a drum machine.

[@user-zy5dp8fl8n]

I found these guys through Khruangbin & gotta say due to the masks am still unsure this is not them lololol 🛫🐄🦕🤷‍♂️

[@ActualChef]

1982 Indian proto-EDM hits hard. This is a great track which led me to the original.

[@SiberiaCatz888]

DISCO FUNKY PORTALS❤❤❤❤

[@ajiusasikander1701]

The original was found in a drawer in Charanjit's house in Mumbai after he passed away. Charanjit was a jobbing musician in the Bollywood film industry and the front man for a wedding band. He effectively invented Acid House Music- his work predated the Chicago movement. For me, he is a legend. Charanjit ki tarif!

[@BurnerAccotwo]

Bit of a stretch at the end, mate.

[@chiragsaga9837]

That is the best, ten ragas to disco 😭😭🤧

[@geoffsmith8172]

You don't need to take away from Chicago to compliment him.

[@slowtron]

@@geoffsmith8172 not taking anything away, it does actually pre-date, look it up yourself! Do check out the original (that this is a cover of), you'll enjoy it.

[@TheWatev123456789]

​@@BurnerAccotwo @geoffsmith8172 Many do consider his work, 'Synthesizing: Ten Ragas to a Disco Beat' (1982), which was made using a TR-808 drum machine and TB-303 bass synthesizer, to be the earliest example of acid house music, predating Phuture's Acid Tracks (1987) by 5 years.

[@guiyome325]

The original Raga Bhairav by Charanjit Singh is a piece of music history. I would go as far as to say he unknowingly invented the acid house sound and was a precursor to techno. All that in 1982, with an unreleased 303, away from any Western influence. Massive.

[@rajo741]

Solid music but those idiotic face coverings need to go. So childish.

[@mjaceyep110]

@@rajo741 Why?

[@paulafaundez]

Son su sello 😊 me encantan. Quédenselas 🖤🪬

[@Uncle_Houndy]

@@rajo741 nah mate it's all part of their mystique. I'm not an art critic but the point of the masks as far as I see it is to remove physical appearance and personal identity from the equation in order to create a visual scene that is homogenous yet original. I love how they all wear the same colour palette yet they each have different styles, textures and vibes within that - variations on a theme. Overall I see a very well considered and balanced artistic presentation. That level of styling doesn't just happen by chance. You have to think it all through to the finest detail and then make it look effortless for the camera.

[@MavimMusic]

Ok so this is a cover??

[@MehulMewal]

I found Charanjit's album way back in 2018 when I was exploring acid house scene and I have been hooked ever since to his hypnotic raga acid sounds. Glass Beams doing a cover is such a wonderful thing to witness 🕉️

[@anwaralbayali4961]

Glass Beams are magicians. It's been 8 months since I listened to their music, and I became addicted 🎶 ❤

This is the dopest, most incredible fusion of sounds I've heard in a decade

[@sankethnadagouda456]

Raga Bhairav' by Charanjit Singh is brilliant but someone should do a recreation of all the ragas done by Charanjit Singh! It will be an epic gift to this Generation.

Впервые я рад что ютюб мне порекомендовал видео, этой австралийской как я понял группой людей чьи корни из Индии и ещё откуда то там, но в целом круто они придумали связать народные лады Востока и Западную Музыку. Это такой музыкальный мостик между Востоком и Западом. Если торговым мостиком между Западом и Востоком была Россия, то музыкальным мостиком является связанная узлом крепких связей народные лады Востока, с Западной Музыкой.
