Reviews
Talvin Singh is a proper genius,
All of his work needs to be reissued on vinyl to a new generation- This is the best Asian-Oriental Drum & Bass Compilation ever. Big ups Talvin Singh for the selection.
RIP Saifullah "Sam" Zaman . Chittagong Chill by State Of Bengal is and will be one of the most powerfull DnB tracks of all time.

This is the album that introduced the world to 2 of the biggest tracks in the Asian Underground scene. Talvin Singh's legendary 'Jaan' (featuring the sublime vocals of Amar) and State Of Bengal's drum & bass masterpiece 'Flight IC408'. On it's release most people did not understand this album. It was so different from what was around at the time. As a whole it's not a perfect album it has a couple of boring tracks, especially the out of place 'Distant God' & the rather mediocre 'K-Ascendant'. That said, other noteworthy tracks are Osmani Soundz classic 'Spiritual Master Key' & State Of Bengal's second offering 'Chittagong Chill'. The following year State Of Bengal released his debut album 'Visual Audio' which was somewhat inconsistent but is a good companion piece to this album. I was sad to hear State Of Bengal aka Sam Zaman recently passed away (19th May 2015). He was one of the forefathers of the Asian Underground scene. He is no longer with us but his music will live on forever. RIP Sam. From one of your biggest fans.
