Originally released in 2003. Traditional bhangra is the dance music of the harvest festival of the Punjab region of northern India, but modern bhangra has nothing to do with the harvest. It is urban music, a "desi" (immigrant) style, as British as it is Indian. Most contemporary bhangra stars were born and raised in cities such as London, Birmingham, Coventry, and Leeds, and of course the sounds they've grown up with -- punk rock, hip-hop, dancehall reggae, house -- thoroughly infuse the music they make. But the single-string tumbi still twangs through the mix, though it's usually sampled or synthesized, and the deep, resonant beat of the dhol drum still drives the bhangra dance. Includes tracks by Achanak, Panjabi Hit Squad, Munde Kolo, A.DH feat. Singh MC, Rhythm Dhol Bass, Nav Sarao remixed by Hit Squad, Panjabi MC, DJ Stin remixed by O-Ji, Gubi Sandhu feat. MC Coppa, Bally Jagpal, Kuldeep Manak, Tarli Digital, and Major Mehram.
