RAVANA {: a 'mirage' as a metaphor / allure } Producer, DJ and sampling agent based in New Delhi, Shravan a.k.a Ravana, re-emerging and re-inventing his moniker via an eclectic collage of Spoken Word/Drum N Bass/Jungle/Break-core/Dub. His new songs are raw, gritty and with thought provoking form that gradually invite the listener into a borderless experience. The perverse use of retroactive speeches, voices and old Bollywood songs, over a smokey canvas of sampled sounds and relentless hard quantized beats chuffed with dubby bass-lines and psychedelic washouts.
​
His new album, his first on Amarrass Records, is called 'Dubfounded', featuring the Jogi folk poet Jumme Khan (from Alwar, Rajasthan). Featuring six tracks that range the gamut from reggae, dub, dubstep, drum and bass, to the blues and beyond - 40 minutes of krantikari bass! Early test copies of the handmade 12" LP, 180gram are sounding fabulous, and the record will ship with a 4 page insert with translations. Release date: April 19, 2019. Available on iTunes, Spotify and elsewhere.
Limited Edition handmade vinyl comes with digital download code.

“Subsequent listens tantalize, as the layers come off and the underlying beauty of that beat, of that nuance is revealed to the ears.” - Sarthak, Ishq FM

"The Ridiculous DJ with ten Soundcloud accounts" - Sunday Guardian
​
"I lose track of how long Ravana has been making gentle ripples in the Indian electronic music scene, but it has been a while. His languid advance through this scene is dotted with moments of visceral artistic clarity, but always with a kind sort of wit." - Lanky Strum, Medium
