Earthtribe were formed before the ‘Asian Underground’ had arisen and remain at the core of the British-Asian ‘scene’. But their style has always been as much about the west as it is east. They break down all musical and racial barriers and communicate through the ethnocyberfunk sound, a universal language. It’s a rhythm thing: electro, trance and breakbeat are subtlely blended with global grooves from India, Africa and South America. Add a generous sprinkling of funk, dub, tabla and sublime Indian vocals to the melting pot and the music is complete: an indefinable concoction.
