Take a first listen to a new release from South African artist Guy Buttery and Indian artist Kanada Narahari. This is the opening track from their debut upcoming crossover project, Nāḍī, which will be officially released on the 8th November 2019.

From the artist: “The LP is an exploration of the musical languages between South Africa and India and the previously untold stories surrounding this connection.

On a first listen, the tracks on Nāḍ ī emerge as salty, humid invocations to the inscrutable depths and misty myths of the Indian ocean– that vast body of water that stretches between, and laps the shorelines, of the artists’ respective homelands. The music contained in this album was all created and recorded in Guy’s hometown of Durban in South Africa, home to the largest Indian community living outside of the subcontinent.”

Big thanks to Guy Buttery for sharing his music with this blog, great to share music from the global community through this blog.
