Wild City #224: Sindhi Curry 'Garage & House Origins'

Wild City

A mainstay of the dance music in India, Pramod Sippy aka Sindhi Curry is one of the most seasoned commanders of the dancefloor in the country. For our latest mix, the DJ marks signing up with the agency Maushi by running through the several stylistic excursions he has tried over the years to engage with a musical atmosphere he hasn't explicitly offered to the public ear before. With the special mix entitled 'Garage & House Origins', Sindhi Curry steps away from his usual genre-unrestricted fare of circling the moodier grounds of disco and techno. He dives into his vaults for a sense of old-school house and garage without necessarily choosing classic cuts – but rather, picking up selections that serve as either example of that era or a love letter to its no-nonsense fun. Taking off from the black music flavours of Korda's 'Move Your Body(To The Sound)' that reminds of the early vocal-based house music, you don't notice when Sindhi Curry transforms the atmosphere completely by the time Krautrock-reminiscent 'World Rebellion Plan' by Westbam makes an appearance midway. Tying it all is an upbeat energy suitable for reinvigorating a laidback summer afternoon.
