Forthcoming on Takt Recordings - 13th Oct 2011


Anil Chawla - Tandrum - Takt

An artist laden with a rich and diverse history, who famously held down a 5 year residency at one of London's most notorious clubs, Turnmills. Anil had the both envious and unenvious task of warming up for electronic music royalty as diverse as The Chemical Brothers, Fatboy Slim, Francois K, Josh Wink, Green Velvet, Simian Mobile Disco, Mylo, Hot Chip, MSTRKRFT, and Cassius.

His career has taken him around the world on numerous tours to Argentina, Peru and Guatemala (on his headline tour of South America), to Cocoon in Frankfurt, Australia, Dubai, Miami, Egypt, Amsterdam, Ukraine and across the UK. That’s not to mention his other appearances at Pete Tong’s Wonderland and Cafe Mambo in Ibiza, and in countries including Mexico, Russia, USA, Spain, India, Lithuania, Philippines, Georgia, Austria, Poland, Sweden, Italy and the Channel Islands.

No stranger to radio, guest mixes followed on BBC Radio 1, Carl Cox’s Global and John Digweed’s Transitions shows, as well as a resident spot on Ministry of Sound Radio. His DJ profile has been constantly growing year on year, as well as his ever increasing status as a producer, with releases on leading labels like Saved, KD Music, Bitten, and Great Stuff. That alongside countless awards/reviews from DJMag, iDJ, Mixmag and Beatport.

More recent times have seen Anil gather strong props from the techno fraternity, with Richie Hawtin playing a vast majority of his releases, and quite memorably he played 4 of Anil's tracks during one set at his Enter night in Ibiza last year. More support has been coming from Marco Carola, Loco Dice and Carl Cox, as well as numerous airings from Hawtin during his 'CNTRL: Beyond EDM' tour across the US last year, which has put Anil firmly on the techno map.

Whilst currently based in India, Anil continues touring across the globe - with everything from deep grooves to freaky acid house and techno still all part of his repertoire. His productions continue to gain support from the likes of Laurent Garnier, John Digweed, Pete Tong, Hernan Cattaneo, James Zabiela and Nic Fanciulli. With new releases forthcoming on Tronic, KD Music, and Alleanza will ensure that his name carries on being on the house and techno music cognoscenti’s lips into the decade.
