A collaboration that has been in-the-making for months, and one that was brought to fruition after New Delhi online radio station boxout.fm and Northern Ireland’s Celtronic Festival were both recipients of grants from the British Council, the live-streamed showcase featured 18 live and DJ performances from New Delhi and just as many from the riverside city of Derry.

Delhi - Derry: Electronic Connections - Drum Attic [05-03-2021]

Artist Bio:
Drum attic conveys precious little on paper and by way of facial expressions. Hailing from a city that has nothing to do with his sound or aesthetic, he got to where he is today by ageing consistently and relentlessly drawing breath on an almost daily basis.
Dense, dark, deliberate, driving, deceptive and daunting are all grandiose adjectives he uses lightly, and sometimes even out of context to describe his sound. 

It's unlikely he'll have the foresight to carry your new favourite music. It's more likely he'll know what he wants, as he is in fact, a man of high integrity and heavy research.

He has performed alongside and shared the stage with artists significantly more self-assured and socially assertive than he is.

Mix description -
Rigorous blends of ruthless rhythm, strung together in true drum attic fashion.

Boxout.fm is a New Delhi-based online radio station that has been in existence since April 2017. It was created at a time when a community-run platform showcasing alternative music and its related cultures in India did not yet exist. As a radio station, Boxout.fm showcases carefully curated programs focused mainly on India’s emergent musical and cultural scene.

Drum Attic aka Siddharth Mehra’s music and his career as a New Delhi-based DJ and producer share a strong common feature - consistency. Present in the capital’s nightlife for nearly a decade, first as one half of the electronic duo Motion Noir and later through his own moniker Drum Attic, as well as the studio manager at boxout.fm where he also presents the monthly show ‘DulyUnruly’, Mehra has upheld an unfaltering love for hard techno in all his strides.

It’s not uncommon to see artists adapt different monikers or shapeshift through their careers as they tip-toe across genres. Drum Attic, however, has stuck to his guns and maintained a constant and ever-improving output of mixes and remixes that may channel influences from dub and acid, but are almost always firmly rooted in pounding 4/4 techno.

The same quality comes into play in his latest mix for Wild City, which comes as an anthology of techno’s underdogs with tracks from the likes of Hemka, DJ Overdose, Lag, Morphology, Sebastian Kramer and Drhamer. Easily suited to an intense club night, the mix sounds extensively rhythmic and hard-hitting, as can be expected from a moniker like ‘Drum Attic’. Meandering through a variety of moods, Mehra’s unabashed love for dissonance and his propensity for hard-hitting, heavy soundscapes shine on the mix, making for a rigorous listen.

Drum attic conveys precious little on paper and by way of facial expressions. Hailing from a city that has nothing to do with his sound or aesthetic, he got to where he is today by ageing, like most life forms, and cunningly drawing breath at every given opportunity.

Dense, dark, deft, driving and deceptive are all grandiose and conveniently alliterated adjectives that he uses lightly, and sometimes even out of context to describe his sound. 

It's unlikely he'll anticipate the music you like. It's more likely he'll know what he wants, as he is in fact, a man of high integrity and heavy research.

He has performed alongside and shared the stage with artists significantly more self-assured and socially assertive than he is.
